Virtual Reality in the Classroom - 1 views

  • With the incorporation of nursing informatics into the curriculum, faculty must be creative in devising methods that include a global perspective on the use of available resources. Added to this changing dynamic is the lack of clinical space for students, while at the same time, nursing professors are being challenged to develop new methods for providing real-life clinical experiences for students.
  • Most students have a desire to expand their universe and use virtual learning.
  • Baker, Wentz, and Woods (2009) investigated the use of SL using a qualitative method with a cohort of students (n = 9) in a psychology class. Results showed that students were generally positive about the experience. Considerations for further implementation would include the fact that these students mentioned convenience of attending class in SL, having the text version of the lecture available, and being able to interact with the instructor and other students in real time. Barriers included a slow response time from their computers, needing time to practice navigating and using the tools in SL, and technical difficulties. Research in this area remains scant and it is an area which needs active investigation.

  • Billings and Kowalski (2009) report that virtual worlds are authentic and safe for students. They note that the educators can develop standard scenarios and control the learning environment by their own presence. Virtual worlds can also provide clinical experiences without disrupting the work flow of clinical agencies.

How To Use Blogs In the Classroom - eLearning Industry - 0 views

  •  
    With the inception of Common Core standards and The No Child Left Behind Act, all educators require teaching literacy across the curriculum. Getting kids to write, especially the weaker writers, can be a challenge in itself but getting kids to write about math can be even more challenging - unless you use blogging as your literacy tactic.

12 Fabulous Academic Search Engines ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning - 0 views

  •  
    In the world of academia, Google search engine does not always serve the purpose because most of the time its search results are not exact . I am a huge fan of Google but when it comes to academic search queries I often have recourse to other search engines that are area or content specific.

Redefining the Whole: Common Errors in Elementary Preservice Teachers' Self-Au... - 2 views

  •  
    Effective mathematics teaching is required to improve mathematics education. The experience that the teachers provide shape the students' understanding and their ability to use mathematics in their daily lives. This research study was carried out by a few UCF faculty members, as well as some from other colleges and universities. It focused on pre-service elementary school teachers and their ability to contextualize and decontextualize fraction subtraction problems by both writing problems and choosing problems that support given expressions.
