  • Nothing squashes my interest in a subject more thoroughly than having the material spoon-fed to me by a slow speaker who apparently thinks I’m dense.

      I couldn't agree more.  We've been encouraged to put a face to our course but it has to be done with purpose rather than just talking on the corner of the screen so the student can see us.
  • Here’s a sample makeover of some boring objectives

      Bummer... link is no longer working.  Would have found it interesting to see what she considers boring.
  • Show them through a story.

      Haven't discussed much in our course about creating stories with the subject matter. Might be worth a try.

      Just found our library has this.  Might was to check yours.
  • This starts the material with an activity, rather than a presentation, and I suspect it makes the definition more clear than a text blurb would have.

      The standard practice in these OLLIE courses has been to present information and then give an assignment.  Is it possible online to start with an activity?  Especially when the course is asynchronous?

      Since this is a graphic file, I can't put comments within the graphic itself.   First, read through this graphic.  Good suggestions for business that mirror that of education.   Second, keep scrolling down.  Notice the text of the same info.  Ask yourself which you'd rather read!  Without saying anything, the made a significant point by following the infographic with the text.

      Teaching is all about constantly tweaking the material to meet the students' needs.  What worked a year ago may not work at all with the current students.  
  • Establishes standards for student behavior that are designed to ensure academic integrity and appropriate use of the internet and written communication

      Some students are under the mistaken impression that copying and pasting from several different websites and compiling this info is NOT plagiarism.  Translating into their own words hasn't been done and yet they don't understand that they are stealing content.  We, as educators, must establish the guidelines for writing with integrity.
  • Maintains an online social presence that is available, approachable, positive, interactive, and sincere

      Knowing you can get a teacher's feedback quickly is important in keeping students engaged so frustration does not set in.
