TEAP2014

Received by "my" Ed Tech I plan to use this guide when assembling my blended learning project, and later on as well. There are more to follow...

Once you manage to go through login (apologies for non staff limitation) and after selecting ENROLL ME you are faced with helpful stuff for Moodle use. Like in the story of Ali Baba and 40 Thieves. This time is not Sesame Open but Moodle Open.

One might say that HE is more than a blogging community but I would say that there are useful tips in this article. Those that we need to think of if we want to engage with our users in blended learning as well.

About.com was there long time before I started working towards my Project. I did not understand how valuable their tips were then. Edited articles by experts short time between the idea and the way to accomplish it.

Do you speak Italian. Even if not try to use this link to inform yourself on possible alternatives to Power Point. Useful for students and us preparing online courses.

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.

When planning online event (webinar or class) engagement letter or invitation makes a difference. Why to shy of sending our students an invitation like this? I might include something along these lines in my Project as well. Watch this space.

When preparing to present data effectively it is worth thinking of audience and your purpose. Try to use this resource for the second bit at least. The first one you should be able to figure yourself.

Psst... Do not tell anyone but I still have not been there. I might go and visit while assembling material for my Project. That would be a nice distraction from my office desk. Any tips on how to use it to the best possible way?

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.

I agree that all of us have preferred way of organizing thoughts, actions and even feelings. Mine is very much in line or en circled by Mind Mapping. It works. Believe me! And if not ask Tony Buzan - thinkbuzan.com/ I have prepared and organized all my work in TEAP using them. May the map be with you!

No matter whether preparing material for the next lecture or major Project for your TEAP module having "stuff" online is useful. Hence this post might be a good and helpful guidance for you the way it was for me :)

Pssst do not tell anyone abotu this one! My Ed Tech tells me that is the best he knows about. Competition is open! Looking forward your contributions :)

A good report based on change experiences from various universities

Useful video resource on making use of the underused workshop module.

Another idea! Let me explore on how and if there is any use of this in my Project!

With advocates like Sal Khan and Bill Gates, flipped classrooms are attracting an increasing amount of media and research attention. We had heard Khan's TED talk and were aware of the concept of inverted pedagogies in general. Yet, it really hit home when we accidentally flipped our classroom. Our objective was to better prepare our students for class. We set out to effectively move some of our course content outside of class and decided to tweak the Just-in-Time-Teaching approach (JiTT). To our surprise, this tweak - which we like to call the flip-JiTT - ended up completely flipping our classroom. What follows is narrative of our experience and a procedure that any teacher can use to extend JiTT to a flipped classroom
