Description:
Join us in learning skills and techniques to teach in an online/blended classroom environment! (A blended classroom will have student/teacher meet online and in person.) Participants in this six module course will examine the new learning environment for teachers and students made possible through the effective use of online tools. You can participate in this course while relaxing at home! There is a weekly online “GoToMeeting” conversation that everyone is required to participate in!
Course Outline/Activities:
1. Explore research and best practices outlining strategies to encourage active learning, interaction, participation, and collaboration in the online environment.
2. Explore a variety of online resources and Web 2.0 tools which can be incorporated into online/blended learning units.
3. Design a standards-based online instructional unit, with assessments, incorporating research and best practice principles and potential modifications for students with special needs.
4. Develop online/blended learning experiences which promote student success through regular feedback, prompt response, and clear expectations.
5. Outline a plan to model, guide & encourage legal, ethical, safe & healthy behavior related to technology use.
Successful completion of this course will have fulfilled all professional learning requirements for DPI’s Online Teaching Certification.
The course will be facilitated by Susan Fulks (formerly of CESA 5) and Pamela Hilleshiem-Setz of CESA 5.
