    Here is a very thorough analysis of the use of technology in the classroom. I found it to be in-line with a lot of my own thoughts and feelings on the subject.

    This was worth listening to. It inspired me to think about using Twitter as a teaching tool. Jesse Strommel convinced me it's worth a try.

    Students hate discussion boards and mostly feel like they don't get anything out of them. They go into check box mode and real dialogue is lost. How can we fix them?

    I agree we need to improve discussion boards. I like smaller groups. I have also found in my courses that the students usually are more engaged when I am engaged with them first.

    I also struggle keeping students engaged in discussion boards. I think allowing them some autonomy on choosing their selected topic and/or allowing the post to be completed in various ways helps.

    The article title made me do a double-take! The links for article that provide more direction for improving discussion boards are great! Discussion boards can be so useful, but if not done properly can definitely lead to frustration and/or poor quality of postings by students. Examples and rubrics really help to clarify expectations. I would love to find a way to create a discussion board that helps students feel more connected to me and their peers.

    Glad you all got some use from it. It's a sensationalistic title, but it's something I thought about often as a student. We don't discuss in discussion boards - we write polite, well cited essays and respond to other essays. I'm definitely in favor of rethinking how we do student engagement - discussion boards really could be wonderful, but in most of my experiences as a student they were really lack luster. As an instructor, I'm not sure mine are really much better! I keep tinkering trying to do better.

    I used discussion board for 2 full semesters. I received feedback from my students in both ways: course reflection and my performance evaluation. The feedback was very positive. The assignment for the discussion boards would include an actual company with specific operations (inventory, quality, process design, etc.). Students were free to answer any questions and required provide a feedback to at least one of the classmates answer. Students felt connected to their classmates, shared different views, had an opportunity to learn from each other.

    The title is a bit misleading but some of the recommendations discussed can definitely spark some life into DBs. DBs are a good way to foster engagement but unless properly done can mostly be seen by students as a one and done exercise.

    I find this article (based on a video that is also there) very interesting. The author goes through a list of online resources that people can use to find ways to learn languages online. It even offers a link to CALICO (Computer Assisted Language Learning Instruction Consortium) reviewed course.

    Great ideas and templates for doing remote learning. Mostly for K-12, however it is easy to get inspired or adapt to college level.

    This is a really easy program to create videos/screencasts. You get a link that you can post in course emails/announcements/assignments/syllabi, etc. It doesn't caption yet but I have put in the request for this feature. I use the free version.

I think blogs are better suited for many of our needs than micro-blogging platforms, which seem to have more staying power for reasons I don't quite understand.
