Online Student Orientation

The link to the New Online Student Orientation has changed. Please send your new distance learners to the Getting Started Guide, available at http://www.twu.edu/de/getting-started-guide.asp.

Using Wimba in your TWU Online Course

The Office of Lifelong Learning has purchased Wimba Classroom for use in Distance Education courses. Wimba is a synchronous tool that allows for live/real time course interactions. This tool is currently integrated into Blackboard, allowing students and faculty to communicate and collaborate through a single interface.

If you have interest in using Wimba for your DE courses this fall, there are two requirements. First, you should speak to an
instructional designer to discuss your needs and ideas for using this tool. Second, you must attend a workshop on Wimba to learn about the tool and suggested instructional uses. Once you have discussed possible uses and attended one workshop, the tool will be enabled in your DE course.

Drop.IO: A Web Housing and Web Hosting Site

There have been many times during my work days when trying to send large video files, or just sending numerous presentations to multiple participants via email has turned into an arduous scenario. Forward progress has been bogged down due to file size restrictions in my outgoing email, or multiple recipients email boxes are stuffed to the gills and full!!!!! Then hours or minutes later multiple emails with my large attachments bouncing through cyber space are back. I finally remembered an old adage from my army days “work smarter - not harder.”
I had been using a file sharing service to ferry my online homework to my graduate instructor in Nebraska for quite some time and realized this may help for my work conundrum as well. The file sharing service I use is called Drop.IO and can be found at http://drop.io/ . It is extremely easy to use and has video tutorials to get you started. After a few trials I have started using a simple naming convention to keep track of all my drops. You can create as many free drops as you want, but there are limitations to the free drops, of course. You have limited file size and length of time to have the files available on the site. So consider them temporary solutions for temporary situations.
You can upgrade to a more permanent site if you see the need for ongoing uses to your file storage. An example might be for a semester long housing of multiple video or presentation files with many students accessing the files using streaming technology. I have recommended this solution to many of my Distance Education instructors, as they can use their DE fees to pay for a Drop.IO site to house and download audio and video podcasts.
The Drop.IO sites I have used for my DE faculty, conference presentations and my own class homework have really streamlined my email and life. I would highly suggest Drop.IO or many of the other online collaboration products out there like 4shared, Mediafire or Binfire. I have not tried these sites personally, so wade in with caution and read the fine print first.

Blackboard 9

Well, I have been looking at the new Blackboard 9 interface and have to tell you that I really am excited about the new look and feel. But, I have to admit the thing I most like is the lack of the constant “OK” windows and the YES I really want to take this action confirmation screens seem to be gone. I will be able to fend off carpel tunnel syndrome awhile longer!

The change in Blackboard 9 seems abrupt at first glance with a fancy new interface, but it still functions in the same way, with many new options that will make life much easier for the instructor and student. My top pick for the best new feature or actually lack of feature is the Digital Dropbox. It is gone and may it RIP! For many this was a tried and true friend but a very cumbersome and time consuming feature that was upgraded when the Assignment feature came along.

The new feature that intrigues me so far is the “drag and drop” options right in the Menu itself. This feature helps customize your Menu Items without having to go into the Control Panel and then drill into several more layers before you have forgotten what you were doing in the first place. All the Control Panel options can be accessed via “drop down” or “slide out” menus from the actual Menu Items or the Course Management area below the Menu Items.

The Grade Center, formerly known as the Grade Book, has a slick new spreadsheet look that can be accessed and edited directly in a cell while creating a history of the changes automatically. The Grade Center can also create and print various reports. The Smart Views option allows the instructor to categorize students based on criteria; this will be a great help for the courses that have large enrollment and have groups lead by TA’s.

In the Assignment Tool, instructors can now give students multiple attempts or allow an individual student multiple attempts. Also, the instructor can give an individual student or a group an Assignment.

There are too many new features in Blackboard 9 to mention in this single blog, but please feel free to get your Instructional Designer to help you wade through any of the new tools in Blackboard 9 and how they can help improve the teaching and learning experience for you and your students.

E-Learning’s not just good for the student anymore

We are seeing more and more Open Education and eLearning opportunities on the Internet these days. MIT and Stanford have been pioneers in the Open Courses available to anyone who has a computer. YouTube and iTunes have also gotten involved in the educational realm with iTunesU and YouTubeEDU that warehouse video lectures for anyone who cares to sit still long enough to watch. One can stay on the couch and receive a thorough education, everything but the diploma, free for the taking.
A good way to take advantage of this plethora of educational information is to use them as a never-ending resource of guest lecturers for your students. Imagine hearing Dr. Jane Goodall, world renowned scientist speaking to your class. A quick click on a hyperlink will transport you to Harvard@home to see her and many others. Or, stop in at MIT’s open courseware site and view one of their 1,900 course offerings.
It may be hard to narrow down the amount of information that you want to include in your course. A good way to start using these resources is to plan a project or assignment based on one of the lectures or presentations you find. The students can view the video clip and then report, debate or discuss the information or point-of-view that the presenter addressed.
I have gathered a short list of possibilities that include a variety of open eLearning resources for you to start with, and if you have a favorite drop me a line, and I will add it to my list.

New Year’s Resolution for Your Online Course

Ok, it is really 2010; that is so weird to type or say. The spring semester is days away and you need to tweak your course. So what resolution have you made to rejuvenate your course?

The best way to put new life into your course for you and your students is to look way back into 2009 and see what the students had to say about the course. Look at the discussion board area where you asked students to post the muddiest points or general questions. If there was a theme among student questions or comments for an assignment or other areas, that maybe a good place to start. Reviewing the instructions you wrote and/or having a peer look at them for clarity or understanding can help future students. Also, if there was an assignment or assessment that was particularly difficult for the students, a closer look here could shed some light on how you could alter the instruction for the assignment or assessment to make the experience work more smoothly for the students and you.

If you have not included a Discussion Board section to cover the muddiest point or a Discussion Board area for general questions, now would be a good time to add this to your spring course. Faculty have found that by adding these questions to their Discussion Board areas, it has drastically cut back on their email from students. Many times, a posting to the Discussion Board area can answer many students’ concerns with a single entry from you. And the students in the course can help post an answer to other students’ questions as well. The students also feel more involved with their peers when faculty use these Discussion Board areas for students to use.

You may also want to consider adding group Discussion Board questions to your online course as a break from the whole class Discussion Board. This gives your students a smaller group to work with and allows the students an opportunity to get to know their peers better and have a deeper dialogue with them.

There are many ways to challenge your students with the Discussion Board and talking with your Instructional Designer is a great way to start.
