Building an Online Learning
Environment
Donna Leahy
October 2010
The Online Classroom
• I thought this part of the course helped
me, as an educator, to really think about
how technology will affect my job in the
future.
• This course has allowed me to feel
comfortable about change and how to
successfully begin to implement that
change in my classroom now.
My Online Classroom
• I found edmodo to be a very useful tool.
– It allows me to bring my third graders online in
an appropriate and safe way.
– The site is private and the students do not
need email addresses to sign up.
– Edmodo will provide my students with a great
online learning experience.
Online Learning and Evaluation
Tools
• Rubrics
– I liked looking at things from a different
perspective. It was interesting to really focus
on the desired outcome to create a rubric and
then create the lesson.
– This is something that I will implement more
often in the future.
Online Learning and Evaluation
Tools
• I enjoyed exploring the different sites. The sites
I found worked well for me were rubistar and
rcampus.
• Both sites were easy to navigate and I was able
to find rubrics for a wide range of curriculum.
• http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php?screen=ShowRubric&rubric_id=1089954&
• http://www.rcampus.com/rubricshowc.cfm?code=D393BA&sp=true&nocache=1286
• http://www.rcampus.com/rubricshowc.cfm?code=A4X53A&sp=true&nocache=1286
Online Learning and Evaluation
Tools
• Lesson Plans
– It was very useful to explore various sites
where you could create you own lessons or
use already create lessons.
– I found lessonplanpage to useful. The site
was easy to navigate and completely free.
– http://www.lessonplanspage.com/SSCommunityBrochures23.htm
– http://www.lessonplanspage.com/MathCinderellaRounding35.htm
Online Assessment Tools
• Polls and Surveys
– This section I felt was extremely useful. I
used obsurvey once I figured out how it
worked, I found it to be very useful.
– This site allows me to create various types of
polls and surveys that I can tailor to my
curriculum.
– http://obsurvey.com/S.aspx?id=6767e843-4277-4cfd-a3b6-
f508ba4dae9f
Online Assessment Tools
• Online Assessment:
– After trying out a few sites, I found that yacapaca really fit
my needs.
– On this site I am able to preview online assessments
quickly to determine if they are right for my students.
– Once I have chosen assessments for my class, I am able
to assign them to my class
• As in edmodo, my students can sign up without email
addresses.
• http://yacapaca.com/py/teacher/assignment/new/step3preview/fram
e/quiz/1707/
• http://yacapaca.com/py/teacher/assignment/new/step3preview/fram
e/quiz/11746/
Online & New Media Solutions For
Differentiated Instruction
• I found new sites that can be incorporated into
daily instruction on sites such as: glogster, linoit,
and timetoast.
• These sites provide the ability to do some
completely new things with lessons, but also the
ability to enhance already existing lessons and
tie in technology.
• http://www.timetoast.com/timelines/85271
• http://linoit.com/users/dleahy/canvases/inbox
Reflection
• This course was extremely useful and
worth while. I would definitely recommend
this course others. Although some things I
continue to fine tune, I have found many
opportunities to integrate technology into
the present classroom. This course has
made the integration of technology into the
classroom a realistic and attainable goal
for me.
