HARVARD GUIDE - 0 views

  •  
    Referencing is the official recognition of other authors' works and it involves the making of in-text citations and bibliographic lists which fully detail the works that are being referred to within the academic work. Referencing is essential in authenticating research work as well as in avoiding penalties that result from plagiarism in academic circles. There are numerous methods applied in referencing formal academic works and these commonly include American Psychological Association style (APA), Modern Language Association (MLA), Turabian, Chicago and Harvard referencing styles-just to mention, but a few. These styles are used in different contexts and they subtly differ but work towards the same goal-that of substantiating content within academic works. The Harvard referencing style and its requirements can be inferred from the Harvard style guide, which documents all the basics necessary in the making of references.

The Jigsaw Classroom: Overview of the Technique - 0 views

  • Here is how it works: The students in a history class, for example, are divided into small groups of five or six students each. Suppose their task is to learn about World War II. In one jigsaw group, Sara is responsible for researching Hitler's rise to power in pre-war Germany. Another member of the group, Steven, is assigned to cover concentration camps; Pedro is assigned Britain's role in the war; Melody is to research the contribution of the Soviet Union; Tyrone will handle Japan's entry into the war; Clara will read about the development of the atom bomb. Eventually each student will come back to her or his jigsaw group and will try to present a well-organized report to the group. The situation is specifically structured so that the only access any member has to the other five assignments is by listening closely to the report of the person reciting.
  • To increase the chances that each report will be accurate, the students doing the research do not immediately take it back to their jigsaw group. Instead, they meet first with students who have the identical assignment (one from each jigsaw group). For example, students assigned to the atom bomb topic meet as a team of specialists, gathering information, becoming experts on their topic, and rehearsing their presentations. We call this the "expert" group. It is particularly useful for students who might have initial difficulty learning or organizing their part of the assignment, for it allows them to hear and rehearse with other "experts."
  • What is the benefit of the jigsaw classroom? First and foremost, it is a remarkably efficient way to learn the material. But even more important, the jigsaw process encourages listening, engagement, and empathy by giving each member of the group an essential part to play in the academic activity. Group members must work together as a team to accomplish a common goal; each person depends on all the others. No student can succeed completely unless everyone works well together as a team. This "cooperation by design" facilitates interaction among all students in the class, leading them to value each other as contributors to their common task.
  •  
    The Jigsaw classroom can be applied to give structure to group work at any level with a bit of imagination and just might be a good tool to use in Second Life - it certainly rings many of the bells for good class practise that I can think of.

Clark Aldrich's Style Guide for Serious Games and Simulations: Techniques for grading s... - 0 views

  • Techniques for grading student performance in a simulation In most cases, professors need to grade the performance of a student in a simulation for the experience to be considered official. While ultimately this grading is probably just as arbitrary as grading a paper, at least grading a paper has the benefit of history on its side.
  • Write a paper about the experience in the simulation.
  • Keep a journal during the experience.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Play a simulation well/complete the simulation.
  • Time spent in simulation.
  • Modify the simulation.
  • Different approaches.
  • The importance of doing this wellI am hesitant to call for any standards in this area (and doubt anyone would listen to me if I did). I recognize we are still in a time of deliberate mutation -- we need to try a lot and see what works. However, simulations will not be taken seriously in a formal learning environment until there is consensus on the issue of grading.

Carol's thoughts on life, ICT and whatever comes: End of E-safety Session Tour - 0 views

  • There were fantastic opportunities to chat with other avatars about the course content, view videos and PowerPoint presentations. One of the really unique features to taking a course in Second Life was the ability to facilitate small group work. At points during the course we were sent away to another level in the sky to work collaboratively on a task before feeding back to the rest of the group. We didn’t hear other groups and they didn’t hear us
  • My experience was extremely positive. Having attended many courses in real life over the years, and having also attended many meetings and other events using technologies such as video conferencing and instant messaging, I can honestly say that Second Life is an extremely effective mechanism for use in training.
  • The course consisted of PowerPoint presentations, content delivery by speaker, watching videos and also discussion, both as a whole group and in small groups. In the latter, the discussion documents were edited and shared by all the people taking part.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Firstly, it has been a most valuable opportunity to use Second Life for a serious educational purpose. In that, it has been extremely successful. Secondly because I have greatly improved my knowledge and understanding of e‑safety as a result of attending the presentations, videos and discussions with colleagues that the course involved – and this is despite my already fairly complete knowledge of the subject. In my opinion this shows the value of Second Life as a serious medium in which to undertake educational business.
  • The seminars were delivered through the virtual world “2nd Life”. I had no previous experience of this environment but quickly became comfortable with the basics of moving around and communicating with the other delegates.
  • The delivery through the use of power points, video clips and discussions worked well. I also liked the way you could post thoughts without interrupting the main flow of the discussion.

How to work smarter, not harder - 0 views

  •  
    The rules of an Olympic relay race are simple. Each team has four athletes who run as fast as they can (for a set distance) before passing a baton to the next runner. The fastest team wins. The baton handoff, though, is not always simple. Imagine passing an 11-inch tube to your teammate while sprinting at top speed. And at the 2008 Summer Games, 16 of the 32 British sprint relay teams were disqualified for incorrect or non-existent baton handovers. Experts called the problem "failure to connect." The botched handovers occurred in a split second, but they had devastating results for the athletes, coaches, and disappointed British fans. The problem of constraints A relay race is just one way to understand the Theory of Constraints (TOC), which was outlined in the classic 1992 book, The Goal. If the race is a business, and the goal is to win (increase profits), passing the baton is the constraint. It's a factor that prevents the organization from getting more of what it wants

APA GUIDE - 0 views

  •  
    There are various writing styles that are used by students to write their academic papers. The writing styles include MLA, APA, Chicago and oxford. The writing styles differ from each other. American psychological association (APA) is a writing style that is commonly used to cite sources in social sciences. The APA guide provides instructions that students should follow when writing academic papers using APA writing style. An academic paper has various sections. The student is supposed to include all the sections in his or her work. The APA guide shows how students are supposed to format their papers and the bibliography. Student should include various sections in their work as outlined in the APA guide. The academic paper should have the title page, abstract, main body and references. The four sections need to be formatted according to the guidelines given in the APA guide. The title page of any academic paper should include the author's name and the institution. Then, the writer should include a page header. The page header should be placed on the left side of the paper. Also, the writer should include the page numbers. The page numbers should be flushed right. The page header should include the title of the paper and flushed left. This is according to the guidelines given in the APA guide. The title of the paper should be written in both upper and low case letter. The APA guide discourages students from writing the title using Upper case. The title should be placed at the center of the paper.
