Aplia - 2 views

    I am moving toward more tech and eventually considering textbook-free classes. Step one is trying a semester with Aplia, a text-linked software program that will allow me to entirely design the course using the online version of the text I selected for my students, complete with a grade book and assignment records for each student. I am excited to start using such a technology-intensive approach for my classes.

Useful Resource for Plagiarism - 2 views

  •  
    This thorough discussion on the types of plagiarism errors, with examples, is the most updated article I have found in terms of incorporating current issues created by the massive amount of information available online. It's a fantastic resource for both students and instructors.
  •  
    This is an excellent resource to identify what type of plagiarism mistakes are common among student. One important aspect of this article is related to misuse of online resources, in this age of technology students often use online resources, and also make mistakes in using them properly, which results in plagiarism. Thanks!

Matlab modeling tools helpful for advanced level courses - 0 views

  •  
    The Matlab tools are extremely helpful in mathematical modeling and run very well on a home computer. My application was in software engineering at the Master's level. Student license costs are about $200 - $300 or so, depending how many tools are downloaded.

Statistical modeling tool: practical and powerful - 2 views

  •  
    The statistical software language R is open-source with free download for Windows PCs. It's a bit cumbersome to learn with the help manuals running to 4,000 pages of "stream of consciousness" thinking. However, it's very powerful, and will readily do things that (say) Excel cannot do. Scripts can be saved to Word documents for later re-use.

Let someone else find the technology tools - 1 views

  •  
    Consider going straight to Google itself and see what technology tools appear in their list of apps. Much easier than searching for your own. Since many businesses and organizations also use Google Mail as their internal communication platform, the now mainstream acceptance means the apps are likely fairly robust and worth a try.

    Results from one survey suggest online instructors are more likely than on-campus instructors to use social media for both personal and professional reasons.

Technology in education: if students aren't worried, why are teachers? - 2 views

  •  
    In this article from The Gaurdian (UK) the author reports on a debate at King's College London where a respected panel and an energetic audience of students discussed the future of online technology and education. While students didn't think it was a big deal, not all of the educators saw technology and education flowing together so smoothly. A very interesting article.
