  • democratize learning
  • although the content is free now, it’s unlikely that it will remain that way for long.
  • schools plan to make a profit
  • omputer-aided instruction will actually widen the gap between the financially and educationally privileged and everyone else, instead of close it.
  •  only 35% of households earning less than $25,000 have broadband access to the Internet, compared with 94% of households with income in excess of $100,000. 
  • only half of black and Latino homes have Internet connections at all, compared with almost 65% of white households.
  • , many blacks and Latinos primarily use their cell phones to access the Internet, a much more expensive and less-than-ideal method for taking part in online education.
  • If we really want to democratize education, finding creative ways to realistically open up colleges to different communities will do more to help than a model that, despite its stated intentions, is more beneficial for students who are already wealthy, academically prepared and highly motivated.

      In text citations and referencing were a major challenge for many of my students last semester. This interactive tool explains the basics of APA. I would have my students go through this activity to help them improve their use of references and citations improving the quality of their posts.

Jing, screenshot and screencast software from TechSmith - 1 views

      For the Moduel 4 assignment I explored and practiced using Jing. I know Alex has used it many times in our course. I will use it in the beginning of my course to help student get familiar with blackboard. Many of my students in previous semesters are unfamilar with blackboard. Having a screencast video can help them to feel comfortable with blackboard and help to resolve many questions that students will have right from the beginning.
  • Take Screenshots: Capture an image of what you see on your computer screen Record Screencasts: Record up to 5 minutes of onscreen video
  • Jing eliminates a lot of phone and email time

      In previous semester I received several emails at the beginning of the course about how to use the online discussion boards, how to upload files, how to download article etc. Having a video screencast can allow students to watch step by step how to do all of these thing.

  • Grading presents some questions, too. Coursera’s humanities courses use peer-to-peer grading, with students first having to show that they can match a professor’s grading of an assignment, and then grade the work of five classmates, in return for which their work is graded by five fellow students. But, Ms. Koller said, what would happen to a student who cannot match the professor’s grading has not been determined.

  • The professor is the central figure, the "sage on the stage
  • transmittal model, assumes that the student's brain is like an empty container into which the professor pours knowledge
  • Rather, knowledge is a state of under- standing and can only exist in the mind of the individual knower; as such, knowledge must be constructed--or re- constructed--by each individual knower through the process of trying to make sense of new information in terms of what that individual already knows

  • stu- dents use their own existing knowledge and prior experience to help them under- stand the new material
  • And the professor, instead of being the "sage on the stage," functions as a "guide on the side," facil- itating learning in less directive ways
