Teaching With Technology Today, Volume 8, Number 6 students working online learn to explain their thoughts more completely, Did the student demonstrate independent thinking and decision making, http://www.uwsa.edu/ttt/articles/spilka.htm
Extractions: Most workplace professionals write documents in a fairly mature way. They typically write: How can instructors of business and professional writing prepare students for the relative freedom and independence of this kind of thinking and writing? Several years ago, I discovered the value of using the hybrid model to teach business and technical writing. Up to that time, while teaching in traditional classrooms, I wasn't able to simulate writing situations in workplace settings, or to expose students to the complexities of workplace writing. Sure, like many instructors, I tried innovative teaching methods such as routinely sending students out to "the real world" to conduct research or work on short-term service projects for actual clients. But my students still tended to work on projects with too much instructor oversight and supervision, to collaborate mostly in person with writers they knew well instead of collaborating from a distance with writers they barely knew, and to manage projects with regular instructor or peer input, instead of mostly on their own.
Teaching With Technology Today, Volume 8, Number 6 To teach a successful hybrid course an instructor must invest significant It gives instructors experience in learning in a hybrid environment and models http://www.uwsa.edu/ttt/articles/garnham.htm
Extractions: What is a hybrid course? Hybrid courses are courses in which a significant portion of the learning activities have been moved online, and time traditionally spent in the classroom is reduced but not eliminated. The goal of hybrid courses is to join the best features of in-class teaching with the best features of online learning to promote active independent learning and reduce class seat time. Using computer-based technologies, instructors use the hybrid model to redesign some lecture or lab content into new online learning activities, such as case studies, tutorials, self-testing exercises, simulations, and online group collaborations. What is the Hybrid Course Project? During 1999-2001, the University of Wisconsin System Curricular Redesign Grant Program funded a collaborative project involving UW-Milwaukee and four UW-College campuses (Rock County, Sheboygan, Washington, and Waukesha). Coordinated by UWM's Learning Technology Center, the project developed a Web resource of hybrid courses, created a model faculty development program for teaching hybrid courses, and supported 17 faculty in their efforts to design, develop, and teach their first hybrid courses.

Extractions: Jeffrey D. Smith Jeff Smith is a researcher at Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT), currently at the NTT Multimedia Communications Laboratories in Palo Alto, CA USA. His research interests include CSCW, organizational theory, organizational design, and classical rhetoric. One current project is EColabor, a collaborative requirements analysis system. Part of his work with EColabor is designing a distributed media server and control protocols. Other activities include "Ingrid," a global, distributed search infrastructure, and a multicast debugging and monitoring tool, tentatively called mtool. Plans are to have a beta version of mtool available by the summer IETF. Following his plenary presentation, Jeff will demonstrate EColabor Jeff will demonstrate EColabor , an active hypermedia for collaboratively elaborating documents. EColabor is designed to address problems in communication, agreement, and change management in document production, which are reportedly significant but rarely addressed. Based on the Inquiry Cycle model, EColabor supports stakeholders in systematically managing their documents. EColabor records all the processes of elaborating documents in shared hypermedia and provides comprehensive support for utilizing these records, applying multimedia and CSCW technologies to the document production process.

DASL - National Science Teaching Standards Data and Activities for Solar learning National Science Teaching Standards Before graduating from high school, students working individually or in http://eo.nso.edu/dasl/Lessons/standards.htm
Extractions: One of the primary goals of creating this compact disk was to offer educators a highly flexible data set of actual telescopic images studied by scientists in an effort to improve our understanding of solar dynamics. We feel this data set, along with the arranged modular investigations and literature, offer a unique, yet authentic, view of our sun. Due to the long duration of archived images, users can witness many of the fundamental solar behaviors and characteristics. We believe that there is no other resource available for teachers that has as thorough a compilation of solar image files, covering one full solar magnetic cycle of 22 years. The flexibility of the data, and accompanying movie, make it useful in a variety of subject classrooms as well as for different age groups. Instructors can use the images to casually supplement existing curriculum; or, for more formal settings as in independent research projects. Teachers have the opportunity to administer one of the prearranged investigations or simply use the data to allow students to conduct their own scientific inquiry. Those wishing to incorporate this data set and activities will find that it addresses many of the national science standards. Both
