The aim of this unit is that upon completion, teachers will be able to describe the functions of the internet in the teaching and learning process and demonstrate a capability to use the internet.
This is a lesson plan for beginners to 3D modeling. The project provided in the lesson is easy to print using a 3D printer.
This is the final course in the three-course sequence (11.129, 11.130 and 11.131) that deals with the practicalities of teaching students. Areas of study will include: educational psychology, identification of useful resources that support instruction, learning to use technology in meaningful ways in the classroom, finding more methods of motivating students, implementing differentiated instruction and obtaining a teaching job.
This guide is meant to help teachers utilize technology in the classroom while protecting their students’ privacy.
Technology tools and apps are making it possible for educators and students to collaborate, create, and share ideas more easily than ever. When schools use technology, students’ data—including some personal information—is collected both by educators and often the companies that provide apps and online services. Educators use some of this data to inform their instructional practice and get to know their students better. It is just as essential for educators to protect their students as it is to help them learn.

These slides and the video presentation were first introduced at the Idaho State University Graduate Research Symposium. Then, they were adapted to fit the needs of community college professional development in-service sessions. The updated version was presented in October 2023 at both the Idaho Library Association Conference and the AECT International Convention.
This presentation was developed from a combination and adaptation of other presentations. It is also more aesthetic and flowing than previous presentations.

In this set of activities, students gain experience in creating multiband image composites and layering multiple raster data sets (DEM and hillshade, geologic map, and satellite imagery in a variety of spectral band combinations) to find interesting correlations and features and to propose a number of research projects that could be carried out using the data sets.

Este trabajo busca dar respuesta a una serie de preguntas acerca del conectivismo.
This is a proposed e-learning organizational structure in higher eduction. It will prefarably find use in an institution with other learning departments already teaching their courses using other modes of study e.g., face-to-face.
A short introduction to e-learning and how to make online lectures yourself
The purpose of this hands on activity is to experiment with reflectance properties of various surfaces and to gain a better understanding of the effects of the position of the energy source and the detector (azimuth and zenith angles) on the recorded (perceived) brightness.
this is just a test. it is a mess.
este recurso da a conocer qué son los recursos educativos abiertos (REA), sus fundamentos y presenta una experiencia en la aplicación de los mismos.
This activity can be used as an extension for unit over macromolecules or an application of the metabolism unit. The purpose behind this activitity is to really look at the foods and drinks we used to obtain energy and see of they do what they claim to do. The circle of viewpoints activity is built around generating a list of ideas/perspectives about a given topic and then using that information for a prompt to dive deeper into the topic. This activity is built in in 3 parts Background reading and brainstormingQuestions and Reserch Socratic Circle
Giving Learners a Premier Learning Experience No Matter Where
Online learning and teaching have been a part of CSI for many years. To give just one example from one discipline, in the 1990s, Jeff Fox and Ken Bingham cobbled together various digital tools to allow students to access instruction, discussions, feedback, readings, and more. Long before Canvas, Moodle, or any other LMS (learning management system), when email was still a relative novelty, Jeff and Ken and other forward-looking instructors were harnessing the power of the web to reach and teach CSI’s students.
The Online Learning Committee of the college is the latest iteration of an institutional effort to improve online education that has been around nearly as long as online teaching. Long-time employees will remember the E-Learning Committee, and similar groups comprised of faculty, staff, support folks, and students working to make online learning as good as it can be.
This text is the latest in a long line of initiatives intended to regularize a level of instructional excellence at CSI. In fact, we hope this text will give you the resources you need to be the best online teacher you can be and continue to build CSI’s reputation as a leading and innovative institution in Idaho.
The text provides four areas of focus for you to consider. CONTENT | COURSE DESIGN | FEEDBACK | and CONNECTIONS. We believe that almost any measure of engaged, exemplary online instruction can be found in one of these “buckets.”
Within these categories, we have identified just three items (for now) for your consideration as you tackle the taxing work of teaching online. Let’s call these “essential practices.” Read on to see what these practices are and to see some examples of their implementation.
“Engaged” and “exemplary” practices will be published later.
