The document summarizes the findings of a study on the use of blogging in a college writing course. It discusses how blogging was designed to increase student engagement, foster community, and improve critical thinking skills. A survey found that most students felt blogging increased their engagement and sense of community. To make blogging more effective, the document suggests revisiting the purpose of blogging, increasing student interactions on blogs, and providing more instructor feedback.
Modular Instruction Presentation - Gail Weatherly
The document discusses best practices for moving instruction from face-to-face to fully online environments. It emphasizes the importance of (1) building on a foundation of planning and development, (2) considering how students will interact with instructors and peers, and (3) using a modular approach to focus on student engagement and interactions. When developing online courses, instructors should consider students' needs, develop a timeline and plan, identify resources, incentives, and ownership of intellectual property, and design modules that provide clear goals, objectives, content, interactions and assessments.

This document summarizes a professional development session for teachers on implementing backwards design and project-based learning in the classroom. The goals of the session are to equip teachers to use backwards design, connect classroom instruction to lifelong goals, develop classroom mission statements, and create hands-on learning experiences. Backwards design involves starting with the desired learning outcomes, then planning assessments, and finally lessons and activities. It is presented as a way to make learning more relevant and efficiently use instructional time. The session models backwards design by having teachers plan units using the three stages of backwards design.

The document summarizes a professional learning community (PLC) meeting for educators. The PLC focused on a "Multicultural Me" activity where teachers shared aspects of their cultural identities and experiences. They then discussed characteristics of critical thinkers and questions to explore issues like assumptions about other cultures and describing realistic futures to students. Finally, possibilities were discussed for sharing the PLC's lessons with students, such as emphasizing cultural similarities over differences. The goal of the PLC was to inspire excellence in educators and students through cultural understanding and critical thinking.

This document discusses four instructional strategies for improving student outcomes: summarizing and note taking, comparing, nonlinguistic representations, and cooperative learning. It provides details on implementing each strategy effectively in the classroom, including the importance of each strategy, examples of application, and ensuring positive interdependence and individual accountability for cooperative learning groups. The document emphasizes that teachers must understand when and how to use these strategies, and not assume they will always improve achievement when used randomly.
Humanizing Your Online Course
This document summarizes a presentation about humanizing online courses. It discusses establishing instructor, social, and cognitive presence to improve the educational experience. Instructor presence is created through setting a supportive climate, such as introducing oneself and providing feedback. Social presence is developed by having students introduce themselves and incorporating collaborative learning. Cognitive presence encourages deep learning through critical thinking strategies like problem-based learning and reflection. The goal is for these three types of presence to work together to support discourse and learning according to the Community of Inquiry framework.

1.2 Biblical WisdomIntroduction
Are you familiar with IWU’s mission statement?
Indiana Wesleyan University is a Christ-centered academic community committed to changing the world by developing students in character, scholarship, and leadership.
One way this mission is fulfilled is by providing each of our students access to a chaplain. Here is a welcome message from one of our chaplains, John Lee.
Welcome to SpiritCare
Another way this mission is fulfilled is by creating a learning environment integrated with faith. Most IWU courses have learning activities built into the curriculum where specific biblical principles and Christian concepts are discussed. In many courses, students are asked to develop their understanding and application of these principles and concepts in the assignments. In this first workshop, we will reflect on what author David Brooks, in his book The Road to Character, describes as the distinction between “Résumé Virtues” and “Eulogy Virtues.” “Résumé Virtues” are those related to the skills we bri.

Study skills
This chapter introduces students to studying at the university level and discusses different approaches to learning and teaching used, including lectures, seminars, group activities, tutorials, online activities, and independent study. It emphasizes that university requires students to take responsibility for their own learning, think critically about ideas, and discuss and debate topics with peers and tutors. The goal is for students to develop into independent learners who can effectively manage and reflect on their own learning process.
Understanding by design board retreat 2013 final
This document provides an overview of Understanding by Design (UbD). It explains that UbD is a multifaceted and complex process for designing curriculum and instruction. Key aspects of UbD include establishing learning targets, essential questions, outcomes, assessments, and differentiated learning plans. Deeper understanding is developed through big ideas, essential questions, knowing what students will know and be able to do, and gathering evidence of understanding through observations, conversations and products. The document emphasizes establishing learning targets and involving students in the learning process.

1.2 Biblical WisdomIntroduction
Are you familiar with IWU’s mission statement?
Indiana Wesleyan University is a Christ-centered academic community committed to changing the world by developing students in character, scholarship, and leadership.
One way this mission is fulfilled is by providing each of our students access to a chaplain. Here is a welcome message from one of our chaplains, John Lee.
Welcome to SpiritCare
Another way this mission is fulfilled is by creating a learning environment integrated with faith. Most IWU courses have learning activities built into the curriculum where specific biblical principles and Christian concepts are discussed. In many courses, students are asked to develop their understanding and application of these principles and concepts in the assignments. In this first workshop, we will reflect on what author David Brooks, in his book The Road to Character, describes as the distinction between “Résumé Virtues” and “Eulogy Virtues.” “Résumé Virtues” are those related to the skills we bri.

Learning Outcomes Workshop
This document outlines an education workshop about developing learning outcomes. The workshop aims to help participants understand learning outcomes, their advantages, and how to design them using Bloom's Taxonomy. By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to describe learning outcomes, discuss their benefits, relate them to Bloom's Taxonomy, apply the taxonomy to create outcomes, and understand that "understand" is not an appropriate verb for an outcome. The workshop involves reviewing theory, practical application through group work developing outcomes, and sharing results.

Sharon B. Buchbinder and Dale Buchbinder
Dr. O’Connor was known for his hot temper and drinking. Although he claimed never to come to work under the influence, nurses, physicians, and other coworkers had their doubts, and several expressed their alarm to their supervisors. The emergency room needed coverage, and it was hard to find physicians who would work the graveyard shift, so little was done to address these concerns. One night, Dr. O’Connor walked across a clearly marked wet floor that the custodian had just mopped. When the angry janitor protested loudly and pointed to the bright yellow sign and the offending footprints, Dr. O’Connor took a swing at the other man and a fistfight ensued.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1.
What should the hospital do to deal with the good doctor? Who should handle this?
2.
What role, if any, did the janitor play in this incident? What could he have done differently?
3.
Where should Dr. O’Connor be referred—anger management, Alcoholics Anonymous, psychiatric evaluation? Provide a rationale for your response.
4.
How can this incident be turned into a “teachable moment” for the staff, physicians, and others?
5.
How could this have been prevented?

This document provides instructions for a 3-5 page paper on an environmental policy issue of the student's choosing, such as climate change or air quality regulations. The paper should define the roles of scientists and two other experts, such as elected officials or economists, in the policymaking process for the chosen issue. It should illustrate issues of power, the potential role of science, and barriers and incentives to collaboration among experts. The paper should identify the influences on the experts, discuss how those influences impact their contributions to environmental policy processes and outcomes, and consider interactions among science and policy experts.
For this assignment, you are going to use your skills of research an.docx
For this assignment, you are going to use your skills of research and imagination. Time travel has been invented, and you have the opportunity to visit any significant art historical site from the Renaissance - Baroque period. Imagine this trip and answer the following questions:
Where would you choose to go and why? (This could be a location, like Saint Peter's Basilica, or a city, like Florence, or a specific artist's studio).
Imagine what it would be like to tour this location. Include at least three images that would illustrate your journey. (Ex: front of the Sistine Chapel, the ceiling, and the altar).
Who would be your tour guide? The artist? The patron? Someone else? (Ex: If you go to Florence, maybe one of the Medicis would be your guide).
How would your tour guide introduce him/herself? (This is where some biographical research should come in handy).
Discuss each of your images: describe the subject matter (if applicable), techniques for its creation, and its significance within art history. If one of your images is architecture, what significant elements would your tour guide point out?
End your tour by explaining to your tour guide the impact that art from the Renaissance/Baroque period had on history.
This is not your typical research paper, but you will be expected to adhere to the following guidelines:
Standard formatting: 1" margins, 12-point Times New Roman font, 3-5 pages.
In-text citations will only be required for direct quotes, but a works-cited/bibliography page is required using MLA formatting.
Include images at the end of your document. (If they are embedded in your text, your paper better be closer to 5 pages long!)
You may use first-person narrative, as you are imagining this experience from your perspective..

For the Final Project, you will assume the role of a classroom teach.docx
For the Final Project, you will assume the role of a classroom teacher applying for a $10,000 Teacher Creativity Fellowship Grant. This award provides financial resources to teachers, which allows the recipient to spend time during the summer months developing an instructional experience that will be implemented and evaluated during the upcoming fall semester. This year’s grant recipients are awarded funding on the condition they develop instructional experiences and programs to support the learning of 21st century skills, specifically, creative and innovative skills.
To further prepare for your Final Project, imagine you teach in a culturally diverse school, and you recognize a need to develop more culturally relevant instructional experiences that promote creative and innovative thinking. After carefully examining the information in the request for proposal for the grant described above, you realize the funding awards are based on the clarity and details of a ten-part form submitted for evaluation. After careful deliberation, you decide to apply for the grant to finance your time and help you obtain the resources needed to develop the proposed instructional experiences. A primary component of your plan requires consideration of the culture and specific needs of each child enrolled in your class (or one of your classes) for the upcoming semester.

four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. By viewing the issue/event through these lenses, you will
gain insight into how the intersectional nature of diversity affects society, as well as both your own individual framework of perception and the choices, attitudes,
and behaviors of others in the world around you.
Prompt: First, review the module resources you have so far encountered, as well as your work in Module One. In addition, it is suggested that you visit the IDS
400 LibGuide for guidance on how to select a topic. Select one issue/event in diversity and write a paper that addresses how this issue/event fits into the
framework of diversity, and then addresses how each lens influences perceptions and attitudes toward the issue/event, diversity, and society. The paper should
outline each lens’s impact and framing of the issue/event. Be sure to provide a working thesis statement and clear definitions for your key terms.
Specifically, you must address the critical elements listed below.
I. Introduction: You will compile a series of critical analyses of a single issue/event in diversity through the four general education lenses: history,
humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences.
A. Topic: Using the four lenses, explain how an issue/event within diversity has or has not influenced modern society.
II. Lens Connections: In this section of your assignment, you will describe the connections between your issue/event and each of the four general education
lenses.
A. What is the connection of your issue/event to the lens of history for determining its impact on various institutions? Utilize evidence from theory
and research to support your analysis.
B. What is the connection of your issue/event to the lens of the humanities for determining its impact on various institutions? Utilize evidence from
theory and research to support your analysis.
C. What is the connection of your issue/event to the lens of the natural sciences for determining its impact on various institutions? Utilize evidence
from theory and research to support your analysis.
D. What is the connection of your issue/event to the lens of the social sciences for determining its impact on various institutions? Utilize evidence
from theory and research to support your analysis.Be sure to begin the research process early and use evidence from your research to support your responses. Refer to course resources, the LibGuide for
this class, and any other pertinent resources to support your responses. Although at least two sources are required for each lens, note that you may use
the same source for more than one lens if applicable. Relevant current news sources may be used with instructor approva.
