Using Google Tools in Project-Based Learning Infographic
Teacher Infographics Using Google Tools in Project-Based Learning Infographic Using Google Tools in Project-Based Learning Infographic Project-based learning is a dynamic approach in which students actively explore real-world problems and challenges and acquire a deeper knowledge. Many of the digital tools used in classrooms are made especially for education. Inquiry Tools Once you’ve decided what the students will be focusing on, they’ll need more information on the topic. Communication and Collaboration Tools As a part of their work, students will likely need to connect with others – with collaborators in the classroom and with folks around the globe that can help them learn about what they need to know. Expression Tools An integral part of project-based learning is students having a voice in their work. Tools for Sharing, Presenting, Feedback, and Assessment Project-based learning encourages sharing work and receiving feedback that is more meaningful than just a grade.

ION Initiatives | Quality Online Course Initiative ION and the Illinois Virtual Campus have taken the lead to develop a quality online course rubric and evaluation system in the state of Illinois. The goal of this project is to help colleges and universities to improve accountability of their online courses. The main objectives of this project were to: create a useful evaluation tool (rubric) that can help faculty develop quality online courses identify "best practices" in online courses recognize faculty, programs, and institutions that are creating quality online courses QOCI Rubric Categories The first step of our process was to brainstorm criteria for what makes a quality online course. Each Category was then broken down into topics and finally individual critierion. I. II. Communication, Interaction, and Collaboration addresses how the course design, assignments, and technology effectively encourage exchanges amongst the instructor, students, and content. III. IV. V. VI. QOCI Rubric Evaluation Scale The scale is below. Web Rubric

webexample Instructional Design refers to the analysis of learning needs and the systemic approach of developing an online course in a manner that facilitates the transfer of knowledge and skills to the learner through the use of a variety of instructional methods, which relate to multiple learning styles, strategies, and preferences. A. Structure 1. Content is sequenced and structured in a manner which enables learners to achieve the stated goals. 2. Information is "chunked" or grouped to help students learn the content. 3. Purpose of learning activities is clearly presented. B. 1. Course Goals and Objectives/Outcomes are present and explicitly stated to the learner. 2. Module Objectives / Outcomes are clearly presented to the learner and are aligned with the larger course objectives. C. 1. A course description is provided. 2.

Welcome – CATL Teaching Guides | UW-La Crosse Welcome to the Teaching Guides websites prepared by the staff at the Center for Advancing Teaching & Learning at UW - La Crosse. The teaching guides are intended to help instructors prepare for courses and improve their teaching and student learning. The Syllabus Guide provides instructors with information about the goals and purposes of the syllabus, along with downloadable templates for UWL that include recommended statements, components, and policies. The Teaching Improvement Guide is intended to help college teachers identify, explore, and plan ways to improve their teaching and student learning. The menu under How can I improve . . . corresponds to several important areas of teaching: teaching methods, such as lecture, class discussion, and various forms of group learning. These resources will help you plan, implement, monitor, assess, and document your teaching improvement work.

Guides and Tutorials – Center for Advancing Teaching and Learning (CATL) | UW-La Crosse 10 Online Teaching Tips (PDF) Consider these 10 essential suggestions for teaching an awesome online course, prepared by CATL instructional designers.Alignment of Outcomes and Assessments (Web) This guide, with examples, describes the process of aligning course outcomes, assessments and learning activities. Multimedia Principles and PowerPoint - CATL Teaching Resources Research on Multimedia Richard E. Mayer (in collaboration with many others) has done extensive research and writing on cognitive load theory, the effect of multimedia on retention and transfer of learning. Cognitive load represents the amount of mental resources required by working memory to process information at a single point in time. Working memory consists of a dual-processing system (dual-coding), wherein a visual/pictorial channel processes visual representations of sensory data, and a separate auditory/verbal channel processes auditory and verbal information.Working memory is limited to processing only 2-3 chunks of information simultaneously, and can hold no more than 5-7 chunks before memory fades (chunk here is a fuzzy term that doesn't necessarily translate to a single word, number or concept). For the most useful principles for effective presentations see the seven Techniques to Reduce Cognitive Load, listed in entry for Cognitive Load Theory. Reiteration: Pictures and Words

Recursos Tecnologicos: TIC Las diferentes concepciones del DI son expresadas a través de los Modelos de Diseño Instruccional que sirven de guia a los profesionales sistematizando el proceso de desarrollo de acciones formativas. Los modelos de diseño instruccional se fundamentan y planifican en la teoría de aprendizaje que se asumía en cada momento. Benitez (2010) plantea cuatro generaciones en los modelos de DI atendiendo a la teoría de aprendizaje en la que se sustentan: Década 1960. Los modelos tienen su fundamento en el conductismo, son lineales, sistemáticos y prescriptivos; se enfocan en los conocimientos y destrezas académicas y en objetivos de aprendizaje observables y medibles. A estas etapas podriamos añadir la concepción de aprendizaje surgida a raiz del uso de la tecnología y su influencia en el aprendizaje, nos referimos al Conectivismo o Conectismo. Video Conectivismo A continuación presentamos algunos de los modelos utilizados en el diseño instruccional. Modelo de Dick y Carey Las fases del modelo son:
