This web article published by Faculty Focus suggests that students are more willing to ask questions and interact with their fellow students in face to face settings if they have been offered the opportunity to engage through synchronous online tools. It then outlines reasons why these tools are beneficial for learning.

Now this was and is interesting. Thanks mr T

This web article shares the results of a study exploring which types of interaction are most predictive of students' sense of community in online graduate courses at a US university. Interactions between learners which emerged as contributing the most to sense of community, in decreasing order of contribution, were (a) introductions, (b) collaborative group projects, (c) contributing personal experiences, (d) entire class online discussions, and (e) exchanging resources.

This web article looks at the question of how can we enable students to construct knowledge and demonstrate higher order thinking skills online? The authors provide a helpful critique of superficial attempts to build sustainable online communities for example where LMS's are used for the transmission of content in higher education and do not allow students to build knowledge or engage in higher order thinking.

This web resource created by University College Dublin offers guidance on designing or redesigning modules in ways that encourage students to engage in the curriculum and develop deep learning, critical thinking and research skills.

The highly regarded Wellcome Library in the United Kingdom has released a new web site with over 100,000 digital images for viewing, and in some cases, downloading. The images include "manuscripts, paintings, etchings, early photography and advertisements," as well as contemporary images. Available art images include etchings by Vincent Van Gogh and Francisco Goya. Eadweard Muybridge's studies of motion are there as well, as are photographs covering a wide array of topics. This new trove of online images is clearly a treasure.

Warwick University - Evaluation Cookbook LTDI Gives descriptions of methods that can be used to evaluate the use of learning technology in higher education. Includes"recipes" for different evaluation methods and useful information for planning, running and reporting on your evaluation. .

Will we ever get rid of book. Maybe but ebooks are going to stay with us. More green option if nothing else. For digital natives and maybe not for as analogue ancestors :) When building a Project it is worth having information where to get books that you might need in addition to material offered within the course - online of course.

If we can not find on the surface why don't we dive deeper. At least that works for me. I have found some interesting tips in this post. It would be useful if I manage to use this in my Project or at least if I open that notion to students using it later on.
