  • What I’m really coming to grips with is how much the students might not be actually understanding when I communicate orally.  How much of this information is not remembered?

      I LOVE how you put this Jim!! For me my room is here with you and the others in our class, and i feel the exact same way. My fondest wish for all of you is that you get to experience your love of teaching- - that same feeling of love and satisfaction you get f2f -- in an online teaching and learning environment too.

      jim: breathe.... i am so sorry. i know how very frustrating this can be.... just a week ago i lost one of my blog posts ... i was crushed and frantic after spending a whole day writing the post... if you follow me on twitter you may have seen my frantic panic expressed in my appeals for help to the the twitterverse for assistance/suggestions on how to recover the post ... i just spent so much time on it....and i have no idea how i deleted it. I am not sure if this will help, but unbelievable after doing all kinds of things to try to recover my post, i actually found it by hitting the back button on my browser. I am on a mac and using firefox, so i don't know if it would work in other browsers or on a PC. there may also be other factors. I never shut down my computer and i use millions of tabs. I think my copy was still in the cache of the computer on the tab that i had used to create the post... anyway. i hope you are ok now. and i look forward to this post. me

  • Despite the many educational projects and programs now being funded and offered, practically no effort is being made to create and implement a better, more future-oriented education for all our kids.
  • This distinction is critical because one can change almost everything about the "system" -- the schools, the leaders, the teachers, the number of hours and days of instruction and so forth -- and still not provide an education that interests our students and gets them deeply engaged in their own learning,

    Teacher immediacy is the term used to describe communication behaviors that reduce the perceived distance between teacher and students. By definition, immediacy behaviors convey teacher warmth, communicate positive relational affect, signal approach and availability for communication, and create increased physiological arousal in receivers

      I KNOW! It is so overwhelming at times. I just keep telling myself "it's all going to be worth it!" It is extremely comforting, however, to hear the experts in the field and those who have been doing this for a long time saying that they felt the same way when they first began.

      it is teaching presence not teacher presence. there is a big difference. : )
  • This course allows me to learn the theoretical underpinnings of learning and teaching online, but also allows me to apply what I have learned and “make the connection” to my professional life and to the greater world!
  • From this point on, I have made the decision to be strategic about the design and impact of my course on my faculty’s personal and professional lives.

    Offering early and continual feedback and formative and summative assessment of student progress. In particular, faculty should employ assessment tools that assess students' understanding of course content and learning styles early in the term, and create incentives for students to engage with faculty early and often during the course.

  • Age problem, an overload of information to the point where in heavy doses it begins to resemble garbage is the problem of our day.
  • How will I balance these issues? How can you have non-hierarchical education within the confines of traditional educational pedagogy especially in an online environment? I feel like I’m taking a big risk here with this topic.

      hi mike! i think it is a risk, but i am open to you trying. frankly, i don't see how it can work, but if you are passionate about it and believe it can work and will show and prove that it can, i would support your choice and be very interested to see that.

  • So what does this mean for education? How is this different online? And why do I believe that I only understand the stick?
  • What is my role? What is the future role of the instructional designer?

  • education is one of the most fundamentally revolutionary acts.
  • he power or the perceived power of education and it’s threat even in relation to the most influential and powerful in all of the land.
  • I still am holding on to Alex telling us to challenge our assumptions about online learning and what it means. I think that should spill over to everything if we really want to affect change in this world and in the field of education. What are we assuming? What can be changed? What seems like it’s either a precursor or indispensable even if this may not be the case at all?
  • Understanding history and using it is cheating in a way. A good type of cheating. We can stand on the work of those before us and take the best or the most appropriate for our time. We can use a historical perspective to give a voice to the voiceless of history.

    ...Like Maslow, Rogers believes that, if left to their own devices, animals will tend to eat and drink things that are good for them, and consume them in balanced proportions. Babies, too, seem to want and like what they need. Somewhere along the line, however, we have created an environment for ourselves that is significantly different from the one in which we evolved. In this new environment are such things as refined sugar, flour, butter, chocolate, and so on, that our ancestors in Africa never knew. These things have flavors that appeal to our organismic valuing -- yet do not serve our actualization well. Over millions of years, we may evolve to find brocolli more satisfying than cheesecake -- but by then, it'll be way too late for you and me...
