  2. Outline • Motivation • Objective • Method • Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Conclusion • Comments

  3. Motivation • Technology That Improves Teaching and Learning • Recent technologies such as Google docs and the concept of Web 2.0 • The Use of Web-based Portfolios • Portfolio creation involves the participant in active learning activities such as problem solving, writing, analyzing and researching • Electronic portfolios have the possibility to create a program that is more highly visible, with a web presence that aids in student recruitment • Web-based Portfolios in Teacher Education • have a view of the data that fits the user’s particular need • The most important reasons for using a web-based: • use the web-based technology is to learn to problem solve in our technologically driven world

  4. Objective • Advancing the Portfolio Process Through the Use of Carmen • In Ohio has a five year program for general education teacher preparation • a master’s degree and recommendation for an Early or Middle Childhood license certification. • Compare the beginning knowledge, skills and dispositions of a group of teacher and gathering at the end of the program • Carmen • the name the university gives to their version of Desire2Learn™ • served as the structured technology tool • better mentor master’s students through their graduate work • completion of the program they show a stronger positive disposition • Comparing Carmen to Other Systems • Blackboard™

  5. Method • Participants • 41 graduate students, 34 females and 7 males. • Early Childhood certification (21) and those seeking Middle Childhood certification (20) • The instructors created a handbook that included guidelines and scoring rubrics, which were transferred to Carmen • Instructors have the ability to post • The instructors collected data • by reviewing their monthly artifacts and reflections, as well as conducting pre and post surveys

  6. Method • This surveys were give by using Flashlight™

  7. Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Goals • determine the effectiveness of using a web-based course management/portfolio tool • Reviewing reflection papers and measuring the pre and post surveys • increase the candidates’ willingness to utilize technology • creating portfolios with their own students in future teaching placements. 7

  8. Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Comments • Participating in online discussions and activities • positive comments • I have never participated in online discussions, but I feel it is necessary to learn. • negative comments • These discussions are typically very stale and do not provide the same depth of benefit/learning that occurs within a class. • the end of the program, their comments had changed to predominately positive. 8

  9. Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Comments • Knowledge and skills of using instructional technology • See figure3:NK(no knowledge and skill), LK(little K),SK(sufficient K),FK(full K) 9

  10. Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Comments • Knowledge and skills of developing web-based portfolio 10

  11. Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Comments • Challenges of using a Web-based portfolio • the lack of experience with on-line courses. • be habituated in the face-to-face education context • By the end of the program, the issue is still brought up by three teacher candidates. • Most preservice teachers seem to accept • difficulties are more technical and practical • Access to another computer when having trouble with ours at home • wanting to get on Carmen and unable to when Carmen or OSU website was down. • It takes a long time for me to upload some artifacts. 11

  12. Results: Consequences of Using Carmen • Comments • Benefits of using Web-based portfolio • Being able to talk to numerous people • Gaining knowledge from others • Improved understanding of the uses for posting and uploading information/questions • Liked doing discussions. • Not having to drive to campus to turn in an assignment. • It is helpful to become more knowledgeable about how technology can be helpful and useful. • Could always find answers to questions by searching through Carmen • Saved paper 12

  13. Conclusion • The goal of this study was to determine the effectiveness of using a web-based portfolio with Master’s students during their Capstone experience. • Posting an artifact and a reflection paper each month helped the teacher candidates get familiar with Carmen and practice using technology • Results indicate that a better grasp of technology is needed • A pre and post survey of the web-based portfolio would also be worthy of future investigation • More skill training are important issues • Some Capstone teacher candidates discussed technology use in their teaching placements, but no overt attempt to educate the M.Ed’s about these new technologies took place. 13

  14. Comments • Advantage • Drawback • Some worng words • Application
