Instructional Technology and the Classroom: A Baker’s Dozen for the Teacher Michael Simonson Program Professor Instructional Technology and Distance Education Fischler School
Baker’s Dozen? In the mid-13th century, British law imposed strict regulations on bakers regarding the weight of bread. Bakers wanted to make sure they complied, since the penalties were severe. It was difficult to make loaves of uniform weight in those days before automation, so bakers added a 13th loaf to every shipment of 12--better to be overweight than under. Thus "a baker's dozen" meant 13.

How Do We Learn? Visually
Learning About Social Networking: A Taxonomy Level 1: Learning about social networks – definitions, history, background, and examples. Level 2: Designing for social networks – profiling, blogging, wiki-ing, and friending. Level 3: Studying social networks – ethics, uses, mis-uses, policing, supporting. Level 4: Learning from and with social networks – social networks for teaching and learning, science, research, and theory building.
Trigger Videos A motion media production (most often a video) that presents a dilemma without resolving it, with the intent that this video will lead to a discussion among the group for which it is intended. The dilemma may be of any type – ethical, professional, moral, financial, social, organizational.
