Engagement in OLTs (and other places?)
Increasing participation • Telepresence – for everyone – mics and pictures. • The technology feels like a barrier because it is • Interaction has to be designed in • What do we do in F2F sessions? • Make use of technology: Breakout groups – bring whiteboards back to main room. • Think about how we record
TU100 On Line Tutorial 19th March 2013 • Quick review of TMA02 • Report Writing; the whole thing in less than two hours • It would help a lot to have: • Headphones and microphone. (If not, at least headphones/speakers) • Paper and pencil for notes • A mouse as we will be using more than one application at a time • Your most reliable browser up and running • A wordprocessor, or notepad, running.

Report Writing During and after the US presidential election of 2000, a number of problems were identified with the design of the vote-recording machines used by millions of US citizens registering their vote. One particular issue identified was the use of Votomatic machines and their creation of ‘hanging chads’ in Florida, which resulted in some votes not being registered.
Activity Find two web pages that discuss how the design of Votomatic machines results in hanging chads and hence influences the accuracy of recording of voter intentions. Both pages should be of use in writing a report on the subject. You will present these to the group and explain why you chose them using the PROMT document you have downloaded. The pages you choose must not come from Wikipedia, although you may use information there to help you select pages from other sites. Copy the URLs into a text box on your screen.
Sharing web pages Let’s look at what you found. Breakout room’s whiteboards copied to main room: These boards become part of the students’ notes – saving the whiteboard becomes more important and I need to do more of it.
Create a plan for your report Use the whiteboard in your breakout room to plan your report. You will be looking at about 500 words. We will share these.
Discuss your plans Breakout room’s whiteboards copied to main room
Write an introduction Create piece of text up to 200 words giving an account of the problem. We will share these
Write a recommendation Choose one of the two sites to recommend. Write a short justification for your recommendation; maximum 200 words.
Discuss recommendations. Breakout room’s whiteboards copied to main room
Dealing with complexity • The creation of rooms • Copying whiteboards back and forth • Moving students to and from rooms • Adding or abandoning sections • Switching voting types

Proposals • Play to strengths – spread out OLTs so students can attend several live sessions • Offer different approaches to same content to cater for different kinds of learners (Breakout) • Team teaching as course goes on • Respond to numbers; combine groups
