ollie1: Iowa Online Course Standards - 2 views

  • The course provides opportunities for appropriate instructor-student and student-student interaction to foster mastery and application of the material and a plan for monitoring that interaction.

      This is one I'm excited about - I'm hoping by mixing online with face to face learning I can have more interaction with quiet students - though I know from taking online classes it can be easy to just do enough to get by if there aren't a lot of opportunities to interact.
  • The course structure includes a wide variety of assessment procedures to assess students’ mastery of content.

      This is something I feel like I need to be careful about - I think it's easy to get so excited about new ideas I throw a lot of projects at students at once - I need to think really hard about what I want to assess them on.

  • Identifies and communicates learning outcomes and expectations through a course overview/orientation

      I'm hoping I can use online learning to make standards and expectations clear to students upfront - currently I give them packets every unit with the plan nad assignments for that unit, and I'm hoping Moodle makes that process easier, more clear and less dead tree intensive.

Tinker v. Des Moines Ind. Comm. School Dist. | The Oyez Project at IIT Chicago-Kent Col... - 0 views

  • Does a prohibition against the wearing of armbands in public school, as a form of symbolic protest, violate the First Amendment's freedom of speech protections?

      Oyez is another favorite site of mine - it has really kid friendly summaries of Supreme Court cases, but then they can also listen to the oral arguments - which they get into for about two minutes. When they listen to Bethel, they get excited because the lawyers are citing Tinker - "We learned about Tinker yesterday!" I think it helps kids get a feel for how the Supreme Court works.

  • “America Lost and Found, The BBS Story” F Ron Miller’s typography embodies film’s heady days between 1968 and 1972.

      I love "Fonts in Use" but I think this article would be especially useful to my yearbook students - we're considering doing a retro theme next year and it's good to see how modern designers evoke a past era.
