Week 11: Features of Good Online Courses/Training
This week is a work week to work on finishing your moodle project, due next week (March 31st). On campus students I recommend you attend the brownbag instead at 11:30. I'll be in the lab afterward to help anyone with their moodle projects.
Please just continue to work on your moodle project, due next week, March 31st - see the Moodle Project Guidelines and the Finish Moodle Project assignment.
Below you can compare and contrast some examples of online courses and lessons about one particular concept: population sampling.
See which courses:
- are designed specifically for the online learner
- are designed with scenarios/problems rather than traditional lecture/text
- are supported by interactive multimedia or software
- are clear about why the topic is important for the learner (big issue, essential questions, ala backward design)
- incorporate formative assessment
- and which are just more engaging and more professionally designed
