Download or read book Understanding by Design written by Grant P. Wiggins and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2005 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.

They don't have to travel to a particular location to access the training program, and they can watch it from the comfort of their homes or while they are in a moving vehicle as long as they have a device that has access to the internet. They can also watch the training from their smartphone, tablet, or laptop. An online course consists of pre-recorded lessons which could be in video, audio, or text format. They are usually arranged sequentially in an easy-to-follow manner so that anybody taking the course can easily understand what is being taught. This book covers: Brief History of Online Courses Reasons to Create an Online Course Today Challenges of Online Education Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them Choose a Niche Course Objectives How to Structure the Course Course Creation Phase Course Lecture Outline Finding Where to Make Corrections Setting Up the Online Course Business Best Platform to Publish the Course Market the Course Useful Tools ...And so much more!!! There are two major types of online courses: mini-courses and transformational courses. Mini-courses focus on helping students learn a skill or make slight improvements. They usually consist of only lessons, PDF workbooks, and resource guides as the participants would be expected to go through the lessons on their own. Transformational courses, on the other hand, focus on helping the students to go through a complete transformation. Every step of the way, they need some form of additional support and mentoring from the course creator. In addition to the lessons, workbooks, and resource guides, the course creator would be expected to be available to answer questions and give feedback. The length of time it will take your student to go through your online course is usually dependent on what type of online course it is. Mini-courses are not complicated and the lessons can be consumed in a short period. Transformational courses take more time because it takes a while to get people to change. A good one should last for 60 - 90 days. Anything longer than 90 days is usually too long, as your students might get tired or lose interest.

Download or read book e Learning Ecologies written by Bill Cope and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: e-Learning Ecologies explores transformations in the patterns of pedagogy that accompany e-learning—the use of computing devices that mediate or supplement the relationships between learners and teachers—to present and assess learnable content, to provide spaces where students do their work, and to mediate peer-to-peer interactions. Written by the members of the "new learning" research group, this textbook suggests that e-learning ecologies may play a key part in shifting the systems of modern education, even as technology itself is pedagogically neutral. The chapters in this book aim to create an analytical framework with which to differentiate those aspects of educational technology that reproduce old pedagogical relations from those that are genuinely innovative and generative of new kinds of learning. Featuring case studies from elementary schools, colleges, and universities on the practicalities of new learning environments, e-Learning Ecologies elucidates the role of new technologies of knowledge representation and communication in bringing about change to educational institutions.
