Welcome!UW-Extension CEOEL Faculty Development Webinar: Teaching in D2L Jing Wang and John Oppenheimer
We are going to talk about… • Seven Principles for Good Practice in Undergraduate Education (Seven Principles) • Basic Functions in Desire2Learn (D2L)
1987: Chickering and Gamson, “Seven Principles” Educationally Crucial Activities Outcomes • Student-faculty contact • Student-student collaboration • Active learning • Prompt feedback • Time on task • Higher expectations • Value diverse ways of learning http://honolulu.hawaii.edu/intranet/committees/FacDevCom/guidebk/teachtip/7princip.htm
Strategies: • Instructional scaffolding • Create assignments that require students to react to real life scenarios, etc. • Orchestrate interactive group projects • Use the Self-Tests for active review of materials • Vary the choice of ways students can complete assignment
Strategies: • Let students know what type of feedback to expect from you & how often it will be provided • Post the grading schedule • Publish “office hours” on the course website • Hold “office hours” by video-conferencing, email, phone, etc.
Strategies: • Provide examples of expected quality of work • Release statistics along with grades, so that students can see how they are performing as compared to the rest of the class (stats can give the mean grade and/or the frequencies). • Use the "Release Conditions" feature to release course info only as students achieve a certain level of success on a test.
Strategies: • Utilize technology • Post audio and/or video recordings of lectures • Use graphics to supplement written information • Provide a dynamic, synchronous, interactive learning environment through chat and videoconferencing
