This evaluation plan aims to determine whether to adopt synchronous communication mechanisms, like video conferencing, to support the "Develop user stories" activity in an online Agile Software Development course. It will survey experts, instructors, and learners from different countries to understand their perspectives on the benefits and challenges of synchronous interaction. A systematic literature review and online questionnaires will be used to gather feedback. The results will help decide whether synchronous tools are feasible given participants' time zones and technological access.

Effectiveness of social media in core engineering industriesVikram Roy
ย
Core engineering industries such as construction, chemicals, and mining machinery have less social media presence compared to consumer industries. However, engineering firms can use social media to better understand client needs and deliver clear communications. To succeed, engineering companies should focus on strong visual content in social media and schedule regular posts of images and information across multiple platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn.
Moses Austin received permission to establish the first American colony in Texas and brought settlers to establish farms and ranches, though he died shortly after; his son Stephen continued the project and grew the American population in Texas. As Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna consolidated power and became a dictator in Mexico, tensions rose between Texians and the Mexican government, culminating in the Battle of the Alamo where Santa Anna's forces killed most of the Texian defenders, though Santa Anna was eventually defeated and captured by the Texian rebels.

Five Software Project Forecasting Tips by Troy MagennisTroy Magennis
ย
This document provides tips for estimation and forecasting. It discusses using the least precise estimates needed to make decisions, setting achievable goals and dates backed by plans, and tracking missed assumptions rather than just status. Expert judgement is best when context and practice are applied, and estimates should be made in the largest practical units. Data should only be used for estimates when it provides more accuracy than judgement alone.

This document outlines an induction training for new teachers. It includes an agenda for professional development sessions focused on establishing positive parent relations, analyzing student assessment data, and teaching organizational skills. The training will use activities like roleplaying parent communication, analyzing sample student test data, and creating lesson plans for teaching organizational skills. Formative feedback will be collected through parking lot notes, surveys, and exit slips to inform future professional development.
The document describes the Direct Instruction model of teaching. It is a teacher-directed approach where the teacher introduces new content to all students in a systematic way. It uses the "I do, we do, you do" approach of gradual release of responsibility. Key aspects include behavioral modeling by the teacher, whole and small group instruction, and individualizing for each student. The steps involve introduction, presentation by the teacher, guided practice with students participating, and independent practice. Benefits include developing thinking skills, automaticity of skills, fostering independent learning, and promoting self-knowledge. Technology tools and differentiation strategies can be used to meet individual student needs. An example for teaching time telling to 1st graders is provided.
The document discusses using course management systems (CMS) to design authentic learning activities. It defines three types of learning tasks - exploratory, dialogic, and supportive - that can be implemented through the tools in a CMS. Exploratory tasks involve discovery, hypothesis generation, and role playing. Dialogic tasks emphasize social interaction and collaboration through tools for reflection, articulation, and negotiating multiple perspectives. Supportive tasks are enacted by experts to model processes and provide scaffolding as learners gain skills. The document advocates designing learner-centered activities that engage students in meaningful learning through the various tools available in a CMS.
Blogging can provide many educational benefits for students including increased motivation, opportunities to read and write, and enable collaboration. Teachers are using blogs in their classrooms in several ways such as replacing traditional class websites, linking to related internet resources, organizing class discussions, and having students write their own blogs. Blogs are an attractive tool for both education and the internet in general due to their ease of use which allows users to easily update and edit content without worrying about formatting or code. Both students and teachers express positive views about using blogs in the classroom with students enjoying writing reviews and teachers believing it prepares students for the future.
This document outlines a professional development module focused on iNACOL's Standard I for quality online teaching. The module covers 6 principles related to using student data and assessments to modify instruction. Learners will complete activities to demonstrate competency in areas like time management, online course tools, student readiness, and empowering student learning. Upon finishing activities for each principle, learners will be closer to becoming effective online instructors who continually improve and set high standards for students.
This professional development module focused on 5 principles for online teaching: 1) using student data to plan instruction, 2) incorporating self-reflection, 3) assessment strategies, 4) effective learning strategies, and 5) communication tools.
