  • So each of my slates includes material designed to demonstrate that I’ve completed a class successfully from start to finish.
  • With regard to structure and arrangement, a portfolio must fulfill a goal and tell a story – ideally in a consistent manner so that readers will know where to find things as they move from course to course

  • Reading your course material on a computer screen does not make for a memorable learning experience
  • Start by thinking about the kinds of learning experiences you want to create rather than letting the CMS define a more limited view of putting your course online.

  • . Your course should be a place where students come to participate in the connections that can be made between your subject and the outside world. Build these bridges into your online course materials, and become a facilitator of these important connections.
  • The interactivity and interconnectedness of computers provides increased opportunity for students to actively participate in their learning rather than passively consuming what you feed them.
  • peppering your online content with quick test-your-comprehension questions or developing exercises that ask students to generate data, capture and upload photos of evidence, research connections to real-world conditions, or create explanatory slideshows.
  • t. Consider creating wiki spaces in which groups of students can work together. Include assignments that require students to share ideas and resources, present topics to each other, and critique each other’s work. Use online communication tools and collaborative spaces to foster a class-wide web of supportive contact rather than settling into multiple parallel channels between you and each student.
