Assessment: Assignment 1 - 29 views

  • Average length of blog posts at least 100 words.
    • djplaner
       
      Average length = total length of all your blog posts for the 3 weeks / by the number of blog posts e.g. if you made 9 blog posts with a total word length of 1800 words. Then your average word length is     Avge = 1800 / 9     Avge = 200 200 is greater than 100, so this criteria is met.
    • djplaner
       
      There is no maximum word limit for your posts.  The length stated here is the minimum expected. Feel free to reflect and share as much as you like via your blog.
  • 60% or more of the blog posts contain links to online resources
    • djplaner
       
      If you've made 12 posts for weeks 1, 2 and 3.  Then 60% of 12 is            12 * .6 = 7.2 This means at least 7 of the 12 posts you made would be expected to include links to online resources. NOTE: we'll always round down (i.e. if 60% == 7.2, we'll round that down to 7, not up to 8 posts)
  • More than two posts contain links to posts from other EDC3100 students.
    • djplaner
       
      Let's assume you've posted 10 posts for weeks 1, 2 and 3. At least 2 of those posts should contain a link to a post of another EDC3100 student blog. The assumption is that you will also use that link as a basis for commenting on the other student's ideas.
    • Nicole Hargreaves
       
      So I did post on my blog last week and linked to some resources but didn't link to any other students. That is fine as long as I make it up in week 2 and 3, right?
    • djplaner
       
      Yes.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • Spelling, grammar and vocabulary of a satisfactory standard with few errors.
    • djplaner
       
      If your artefact doesn't use any text, then spelling probably won't be an issue. But the pronunciation, grammar etc may be.
  • he artefact is either too large or too small.
    • djplaner
       
      Maximum size is defined above. The minimum might be as short as 2 minutes, but you still have to provide sufficient information to meet the requirements of the Argument criterion below.
  • All resources appropriately attributed.
    • djplaner
       
      If you are using someone else's videos, audio etc. you must make sure that you are legally allowed to use the resource and you must attribute it appropriately.
  • All three components are present and effectively integrated and aligned
    • djplaner
       
      Your artefact should include - context, reasons and examples (see above for more detail) - there is no constraint on structure or location, but these should be readily recognisable.
  • There is significant misalignment between the three components.
    • djplaner
       
      e.g. your teaching context is a Year 1 class, but an example you use is from Year 5.
  • The reasons are supported through effective use of models, theories and literature (both academic and professional).
    • djplaner
       
      Professional literature includes the Australian Curriculum (and similar). You can draw on any literature that is relevant.
  • Examples of ICT integration are used to illustrate the reasons, but with some limitations
    • djplaner
       
      e.g. the example only illustrates one aspect of a reason, or it isn't entirely clear what support the example provides for the reason.
  • 30-60% of the blog posts contain links to online resources.
    • djplaner
       
      The links also have to be within the blog posts and not in your blog roll. The automated system only sees your blog posts, not your blog roll. As a rule of them, the reader of your post has to be able to access/use the resource from your post. i.e. a reference isn't enough.  It has to be a link that they can click on. The standard expectation is that the content of your blog post will contain links to other resources. This following blog post  http://davidtjones.wordpress.com/2013/03/04/how-are-they-going/
  • Exceptional standard
    • djplaner
       
      An exceptional artefact will be an online resource that has been implemented without any errors, makes effective - even innovative - use of the online environment to capture the attention of the viewer/reader and show them a logically structured, well supported and illustrated set of reasons for using ICTs in **your** teaching. Emphasis on **your** teaching, not mine, not some textbooks, but yours.
  • At least 2 blog posts each week.
    • djplaner
       
      If you got off to a slow start (i.e. didn't post much to your blog in week 1 of semester), don't worry.  As long as you start posting regularly by the end of week 2 (or so) and reach an appropriate total (e.g. 3 weeks by 3 posts = 9 posts). Then you will get the appropriate mark. As semester progresses, however, there will be an expectation that posts will come more regularly. Also, if you write 9 posts 5 minutes before the end of week 3, some questions may be asked.
  • Use contextually appropriate example(s) to illustrate those reasons.
    • djplaner
       
      This thread on the discussion forum provides some more explanation of where/how you might find examples of ICT use that are linked to your context.
    • djplaner
       
      You should not be creating these examples. The examples should be existing examples you have found during this course or in previous courses. The examples should be as close to the context you are talking about and they should illustrate how the reasons you've provided can be fulfilled.
  • Clearly describe your teaching context.
    • djplaner
       
      If you don't know what your context is going to be. Make it up. Try to make it as realistic as possible, as close as possible to your likely Professional Experience placement for this course as possible. You may want to use a prior Professional Experience context, that's fine.

    Hi I have enjoyed learning about TPACK - although its a term I have never heard before it is something I have started to create in another course. Feel free to have a look at my TPACK post on my blog. I really enjoyed watching the video which gave me a visual cue to reinforce my understanding of what I have just read. http://rebeccalucas.edublogs.org/ict-in-the-21st-century/about-me/tpck/ Bec
