Using Color to Evoke Reactions and Emotions - 0 views

  • Studies show that certain colors will generate different reactions from audience members.  For example, black promotes authority and strength, while blue conveys reliability and trustworthiness (which is why so many companies use it in their corporate logos).  Red excites people, prompting them to be more innovative and take more risks.  Orange demonstrates a combination of confidence and playfulness.  So, you’ll want to select colors carefully, based on the emotions you are seeking to evoke, or the perceptions you are trying to create.
  • While colors like red or purple can be rather effective in certain scenarios, when used too liberally, the presenter – and his or her delivery – can be viewed as overly aggressive.  The opposite is true for colors like white, gray, or pastels, which create a perception of passivity or weakness.  These colors should be used as highlight or accent colors only – as opposed to key colors within the presentation’s design.

Why have learning communities - 0 views

  • learning communities have been shown to increase student retention and academic achievement, increase student involvement and motivation, improve students� time to degree completion, and enhance student intellectual development.
  • Students involved in learning communities become more intellectually mature and responsible for their own learning and develop the capacity to care about the learning of their peers.

      This makes me think that online learning communities will lead to retention in course, engagement, motivation, and increase learning

    Again, solidarity is a concept that I have taught about in my sociology courses, but not something I would have ever connected to online learning - until now! WOW!

      Nicole, I think you hit the nail on the head...and something for us to consider when we build our own courses. I will continue thinking about this valuable observation, though I may not reply in a post since the module is running out of time. :(

The Metaconstitutional Manifesto: A Bourgeois Vision of the Classless Society - 3 views

  • ccording to the author, "In the following pages I am going to argue that, mixed in with all the nonsense in his ideas, Marx did get two things right: First: To achieve an ideal society we must indeed move beyond capitalism. (Historical experience since Marx wrote, and a principled, systematic analysis of his ideas, however, indicate that the direction in which he proposed to move away from capitalism was profoundly incorrect.) Second: An ideal society will indeed be a classless one. (However it will not be achieved by liquidating the bourgeoisie by a revolutionary process, as Marx thought. Instead, it will be reached by elevating the proletariat into the bourgeoisie by a process of reform.)"

Why I do what I do | JJ Wagner - 0 views

  • I didn’t like English
    • Donna Angley
       
      We are complete opposites. I love English because I love to write and find it easy to explain why I like something I've read, how it makes me feel emotionally, etc. Writing is as natural as breathing for me. That being said, I don't understand math beyond the basics. Stats was a VERY difficult course for me, and quite frankly if it hadn't been curved I don't think I would have passed. I do understand that math is a lot more concrete; however, it still doesn't make sense to me. Like I always say, everybody is good at something.

      Try thinking about the posts as small research projects that you share with our class. If you have to respond to a comment, again - think of it as a short research assignment. You're still collaborating, but it will feel less social/personal.

      Hi Jerry, I think the test question is reflective of the discpline. In education and sociology I am looking for application and synthesis of the material. In math I think doing the problem is like a math essay, is it not? I hate that my grandson, gifted in math (he would convert fractions in his head at age 4) but he is only feed in school on repetitive worksheets on computation...any suggestions what I can do this summer to feed his gift?

    Our military community is a large and important part of our student population. So, whether you're active duty, a veteran, a member of the Reserve or National Guard or a military spouse, you're eligible for special tuition rates. Our course schedules are extremely flexible, so you can balance school with work, family and the unpredictable nature of military life.
