This course site and presentation will illustrate how the "Seven Principles of Good Practice in Undergraduate Education" (Chickering and Gamson, 1991) can be supported using the features of Blackboard Learn. Several online course design rubrics will also guide our showcase of quality instructional design options related to course structure, navigation, activities, assignments (individual and group), and communication. "Seven Principles of Good Practice in Undergraduate Education" (Chickering and Gamson, 1991), states a quality teaching and learning environment is one that: (1) Encourages contact between students and faculty, (2) Develops reciprocity and cooperation among students, (3) Encourages active learning, (4) Gives prompt feedback, (5) Emphasizes time on task, (6) Communicates high expectations, and (7) Respects diverse talents and ways of learning.

My students actually love this. One of the assignments they have in my composition class is to "teach" a grammar topic they have been assigned. They are required to make a presentation and an assessment. Many of them choose to do Kahoot!

Apps for teaching students how to present, create and code 2. Apps for everyday classroom needs 3. Apps for collaborating on school projects 4.

I am a maker! This video shows the Morse Code generator/trainer that I created as an introductory Arduino project. I used the Elego Super Starter Kit which goes for about $30 right now on Amazon. I used three tutorials for the bits and pieces: Green LED; Push Button; 1602 LCD Module. I then wrote C code to write the Arduino sketch that makes it all work together. I am looking forward to making more and more fun electronics video in the future. But what to make next?

Hi Brad, What a fun project! This looks like a great way to motivate students to apply what they're learning.

Thanks! I'd like to think it'd be at least a little something different for them to try.

Explain Everything is an easy-to-use design tool that lets you annotate, animate, and narrate explanations and presentations. You can create dynamic interactive lessons, activities, assessments, and tutorials using Explain Everything's flexible and integrated design. Use Explain Everything as an interactive whiteboard using the iPad video display (via Airplay/cable).

Poll Everywhere is the easiest way to gather live responses in any venue... conferences, concerts, classrooms, and company off-sites - anywhere with internet. We've been working to end 'death by PowerPoint' and raise the bar on presenting since 2008. More than 4,000 schools and 100,000 teachers poll with Poll Everywhere.

Let us see how utilizing social media has worked in other educational settings!

An estimated 96% of people with chronic medical conditions live with an illness that is invisible. Invisible disabilities can impact student performance, and that staggering stat means that invisible disabilities are more prevalent in classrooms and eLearning environments than you think. Watch a recording of the presentation below, or read on for highlights.

Great job Becky!

I found this plug-in for Moodle that allows real-time sharing of multi-media such as chats, your screen/desktop, whiteboards, presentations, and audio/video. Appears to be an option for incorporating synchronous activities and communication.
