    Social networking communities are here to stay. Facebook has over 500 million users, while Twitter has over 200 million. That's not even counting blogs or YouTube video blogs. There's no doubt that students are actively engaged in online communities, but what kind of effects are these sites having and how can parents counteract the bad and bolster the positive?

    Every instructor who has designed his or her own course and taught it has actually conducted two rounds of informal usability tests. For the first round, you were the user, and in the second, your students were. What is usability testing? It is simply a process of observing how users interact with something you have ...

      Good or bad, some kind of information related to student effort needs to be relayed.

      Waiting until the last week of class to provide any kind of feedback has no point.
  • What specifically should I do more or less of next time, based on this information?

      Keep this question in mind when providing student feedback.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • What makes any assessment in education formative is not merely that it precedes summative assessments, but that the performer has opportunities, if results are less than optimal, to reshape the performance to better achieve the goal. In summative assessment, the feedback comes too late; the performance is over.
  • Although the universal teacher lament that there's no time for such feedback is understandable, remember that "no time to give and use feedback" actually means "no time to cause learning." As we have seen, research shows that less teaching plus more feedback is the key to achieving greater learning. And there are numerous ways—through technology, peers, and other teachers—that students can get the feedback they need.

  • mmontreal on 15 Jun 18
     
    Very interesting indeed. I have always thought that students are more reflective when they post their responses online than when we are having F2F discussions in the classroom. And now it's supported by surveys. In the end it's true though that even if online courses require more self-motivation and time-management skills, student engagement still relies a lot on how the instructor manages the online classroom. Thanks for posting!

    Do you ever feel like you're working hard but not getting anywhere? Maybe you see little improvement in your skills or achievements when you reflect on the last five or 10 years. Or perhaps you struggle to see how you'll fulfil your ambitions during the next few years.

    Dear Norm, thank you for the article. Some very interesting things are using polls on Twitter (great for student feedback/opinion), creating YouTube video lessons to replace the classroom lecture with a video lecture in a f2f class, and using a blogging website on collaborative group projects.

    TT1921 (M Oyeleye) Prof. Garrett, What a great article to read! I was intrigued with this question, which I have tweaked a bit - "How can we as educators make the best use of Twitter or Diigo to help connect our students with amazing, inspiring personalities in the various fields we teach"?. Please, I will be interested in any response or comment on this?
