"My classes and students started to run together, and I kept looking at the clock. That doesn’t happen to me anymore since I have added projects-based learning to the curriculum." Via TwoSigmas, Kelsey Munro, Jim Lerman

"As more and more colleges and universities are shutting down their campuses over the next several weeks in an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19, education technology companies have stepped forward to help move student learning to the virtual realm ..." Via Leona Ungerer

One way to address this is to apply the flipped philosophy to the online classroom. The flipped classroom model can help us design more interactive and engaging online learning experiences, and online classes can help us expand on what it means to flip. Certainly there is something to learn by combining these two conversations. Via Maggie Rouman

Interesante pregunta ¿se puede aplicar la estrategia de la clase invertida (flipped classroom) en cursos online? donde el concepto de actividad dentro y fuera de clase ya no existe como es el caso de las educación presencial. Aquí el enfoque de flipped classroom va en la línea de virar de un enfoque más centrado en el instructor a orientarlo directamente en el aprendizaje del estudiante. Hacer que las actividades sean diseñadas para motivarlo, hacerlo participar, colaborar y promover el pensamiento crítico.

Abreena Tompkins, instruction specialist at Surry Community College, has developed a brain-based online course design model based on a meta-analysis of more than 300 articles. In this study, she distilled the following elements of brain-based course design: Low-risk, nonthreatening learning environment Challenging, real-life, authentic assessments Rhythms, patterns, and cycles Appropriate chunking or grouping Learning as orchestration rather than lecture or facilitation Appropriate level of novelty Appropriately timed breaks and learning periods Purposeful assessments Learning that addresses visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners Active processing with mental models The use of universal examples, analogies, and parallel processing Via Patty Ball, Louise Robinson-Lay, Jim Lerman

As teachers consider their routines for this upcoming year, I encourage them to take the ideas and values that guide the design and facilitation of their in-class work with students and adapt them for the online environment. For example, most teachers use flexible grouping strategies in the classroom based on the objectives of a lesson. They may provide whole group instruction, work with small groups, and conference with individual students. Similarly, teachers hosting video conferencing sessions will want to consider whether whole group, small group, or individual sessions make the most sense given the purpose of that session.

A teacher or instructor is the driving force behind any classroom learning session. He/she communicates topical knowledge with the learners, engages them with various discussions or questions, clears their doubts, and ensures their attention doesn’t stray much during the course. An e-learning course has to do all of the above, only without the presence of an instructor. That’s where the real challenge lies.
To compensate for the absence of a teacher and communicate better with learners, e-learning courses use interactive elements. Interactive learning makes your employees part of the learning process as opposed to being passive spectators. For topics that are difficult on the mind, interactive learning techniques help take the edge off and ensure necessary knowledge reaches the target audience. Interactivity largely increases the appeal of your course as it ceases to be a bland entity with loads of content, and becomes something that can facilitate communication. Via Miloš Bajčetić

Although this post discusses these sites in relationship to online learners I would suggest that any of whom use the Internet to do research will find a new resource or two that may be helpful. The seven sites discussed are: * StudyBlue.com * Omeka.com * Bamboo DiRT * World Digital Library * DigitalLiteracy.gov * GCFLearnFree.org * Processing.org You will find a short description about what each site provides as well as a link to the site.
