  • develop a clearer picture of the task and their teacher's expectations while the teachers reported that they had clearer instructional goals
  • As a result, students typically perform at higher levels and gradually come to view assessment not as an arbitrary form of reward or humiliation, but rather as a positive tool for educational enrichment and growth.

      This is another useful website that provides some online quiz-like tests for learners to get familiar with basic ideas of argument, such as validity. These questions are designed in a preliminary way, i.e., web 1.0 way. Limited interactivity, lack of multimedia components, and, frankly, quite boring. I wouldn't use it in my class.

      I can't find too many online resources for philosophy-related courses. This, however, is very nice. It offers a flash presentation of the very basics in understanding argument. This topic is so basic that it almost occurs in the beginning week(s) of every intro level philosophy courses, such as Critical Thinking and Moral Choices. I plan to use this website as the readings for Module 1. I could have prepared this contents in my class, but bring the learners to an internet resource as an alternative medium of learning is part of the learning goals, as well, so I will do it. Question. Do I need to acquire permission from the owner in order to use it in my class? Given that it appears on MERLOT, does MERLOT ask contributors to share the right of fair use?

      when a resource is contributeda by the auther it generally means that author hopes others will use it. I would however, send the author an email telling him/her about your intention as a courtesy and to check to be sure that the site will be stable and in existance for the time period that you will use it in your class.

web2.0 banning november online teaching education

  • He cannot post the official notes that day so those who subscribe to his teacher’s math blog via an RSS feed can read what’s going on in his class. His assignments do not automatically turn into communities of discussion where students help each other at any time of the day. His school has successfully blocked the cool containers Dan uses at home from “contaminating” any rigorous academic content. It is an irony that in too many schools, educators label these effective learning tools as hindrances to teaching

      I see both sides of the debate.
  • If we could get past our fear of the unknown and embrace the very tools we are blocking (which are also essential tools for the global economy) then we could build much more motivating and rigorous learning environments. We also have an opportunity to teach the ethics and the social responsibility that accompany the use of such powerful tools. For example, many students do not realize that once something is on the Internet it has the potential to follow them for the rest of their lives.

      I see your point. I have been thinking about it even before I decided to turn the course online....I do know students will take the exams together, have outside help while taking the exams online. Should I try increasing the weight on discussion and decreasing the weight on exams? What weight would you suggest?

    Analysis of students' contributions revealed that there is a substantial evidence of collaboration, but that there are differences between conventional face-to-face instances of collaborative learning and what occurs in an asynchronous, networked environment. Johnson & Johnson (1996) list the following major types of behaviors in collaborative learning situations: * giving and receiving help and assistance; * exchanging resources and information; * explaining elaborating information; * sharing existing knowledge with others; * giving and receiving feedback; * challenging others' contributions (cognitive conflict and controversy leading to negotiation and resolution); * advocating increased effort and perseverance among peers; * engaging in small group skills; * monitoring each others' efforts and contributions.
