Evolving Teaching and Learning: Beyond the LMS (Apple Academix) - 0 views

  •  
    The LMS market today faces a strange contradiction - few teachers truly *love* their current LMS but at the same time no one wants to endure the pain of switching to a new LMS. The LMS vendors are slowly cloning each other's features and innovation is slowing. At the same time how people teach and how people learn using technology is constantly changing and evolving. Teachers continuously experiment with technologies outside of the LMS system with varying levels of success

Quote O' the Day from the 2009 Horizon Report - 0 views

  •  
    Information technologies are having a significant impact on how people work, play, gain information, and collaborate. Increasingly, those who use technology in ways that expand their global connections are more likely to advance, while those who do not will find themselves on the sidelines. With the growing availability of tools to connect learners and scholars all over the world - online collaborative workspaces, social networking tools, mobiles, voice-over-IP, and more - teaching and scholarship are transcending traditional borders more and more all the time. (Emphasis mine.)

The Teaching Science Professor - 0 views

  •  
    James A. Rudd, II, one of the survey's authors and a chemistry professor at Cal State Los Angeles, said that most science education research and development is traditionally conducted by faculty from education schools. Though these individuals understand the pedagogy of instruction, he said they sometimes do not understand the content of the sciences well enough to make their work beneficial. He said it is imperative for science faculty to bridge the gap between the study of education and that of science.

The term was coined by Jim Groom, Instructional Technology Specialist at the University of Mary Washington.
