The H1N1 virus, formerly referred to as Swine Flu, is expected to make a comeback to the United States this school year and officials say that college campuses could be impacted. It’s prudent for faculty to consider how their teaching may be affected by an illness outbreak and explore steps to continue teaching during such a situation. This online session will share pedagogical recommendations for teaching during a health crisis, including: steps for being ready, instructional alternatives, available technologies, and suggestions for meeting students’ needs. Available sources for further information will be highlighted. Session archive is available at http://www.niu.edu/facdev/programs/archives.shtml]]>

Edu-Blogging as Metaphor http://www.slideshare.net/jrhode/edublogging-as-metaphor
CIDER presentation by Glenn Groulx on September 9, 2009. This presentation discussed a number of recent case studies, contrast examples of private and public edublogs, and explore issues such as learner and instructor roles and responsibilities, learner choices, ethical considerations, learning goals, instructional strategies and activities, and assessment methods. A comparative analysis was made between private, autonomous, anonymous, embedded, networked, and liminal edublogs. The following metaphors were used to describe these edublogging environments: incubator, launch pad, sandbox, stage or persona, therapeutic or cathartic, sharing space, rhizome, learning feast, arena, guerrilla war zone, network of practice, slow edublogging and transformational edublogging.]]>
