Wiki - Expectancy Theory proposes that a person will decide to behave or act in a certain way because they are motivated to select a specific behavior over other behaviors due to what they expect the result of that selected behavior will be.[1] In essence, the motivation of the behavior selection is determined by the desirability of the outcome. However, at the core of the theory is the cognitive process of how an individual processes the different motivational elements. This is done before making the ultimate choice. The outcome is not the sole determining factor in making the decision of how to behave.

"Lumzy is a mockup and prototyping tool for websites and applications. By "mockup", we mean a quick sketch that gives an idea of what the site or application you are planning to build will look like. When we say "prototype", we're referring to something functional, and with Lumzy we're NOT talking about simply page-linking (like so many other so-called "prototyping" tools provide). No way, we're talking about functional prototypes - where a user can perform events such a clicking on buttons, selecting values from dropdowns, filling in text fields, scrolling lists, etc..., and those events can trigger actions. These actions provide the client with the experience they'd expect from a functioning site or application, such as seeing popup windows, or alert messages, or being taken to other pages or even to other websites (yes you can launch real "live" URLs from within your prototype).

"Bloom's Digital Taxonomy - Activity Analysis Tool Purpose: This tool is designed to analize classroom activities and units for the balance of Higher Order and Lower Order thinking skills. Analysis can either be a simple overview of task construction or a analysis of time allocation to each specific taxonomic level.

The design of a web-based, networked learning environment, Future Learning Environment Tools (FLE-Tools) embodies a model of progressive inquiry. In this paper, we introduce the progressive inquiry model and describe how different modules FLE-Tools are designed to facilitate participation in this kind of inquiry. Results of a pilot experiment of using FLE-Tools in higher education are presented. The study was based on an analysis of 125 messages posted by thirteen university students to the FLE-Tools database. The results indicated that the course provided positive evidence for an integration of progressive inquiry and online discussion. The pedagogical and design challenges with which we are currently struggling are discussed: the problems of creating a learning community for students collaborating at distance or managing large number of entries in FLE's database.
