Blackboard as an Integrated Part of the Learning Environment and Student Expe...Blackboard APAC
Like all universities across the globe the University of Westminster is faced with major changes in student expectations and the role that technology has to play in curriculum delivery and the overall student experience. In 2013 the University initiated its Learning Futures program with the aim of transforming learning and teaching at the institution. Central to the transformation is an aim to make blended learning, through the use of technology, more the norm rather than the exception. To facilitate this shift in delivery approach across all subject areas, Westminster has and continues to make significant investment in both its virtual and physical environment in efforts to better integrate the online and face-to-face experience.
Presented at Sloan-C Blended, Milwaukee, WI, July 8th, 2013
With the increase in the diffusion of blended and online programming across higher educational institutions, stakeholders are looking for ways to ensure the quality of the student experience. Quality of blended programs can be ensured through faculty and instructional development and training, faculty and instructor evidence of competence and recognition for excellence, constructive evaluation and feedback on blended and online course design and delivery, and community-building opportunities among instructors and staff. Blended learning is becoming a prominent mode of programming and delivery in education. It is swiftly emerging and transforming higher education to better meet the needs of our students providing them with more effective learning experiences. This movement is leading to a renovation in the way courses are taught and programs support their students. Instructional and faculty development provides the core foundation to institutional programming in providing a framework for implementing blended and online learning pedagogy in the classroom. This student-centered, active learning pedagogy has the potential to alter the traditional classroom by enhancing course effectiveness through increased interactivity leading to superior student outcomes.
A recent study reported that "Respondents ... anticipated that the number of students taking online courses will grow by 22.8% and that those taking blended courses will grow even more over the next 2 years" (Picciano, Seamen, Shea, & Swan, 2012, p. 128). As the demand for blended learning opportunities increases, so does the need for development of instructors to teach and design blended courses and mechanisms to ensure the quality of courses and programs. The University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee (UWM) has been providing instructional development and blended learning opportunities to students for over a decade. Since 2001, UWM has developed 8 blended degree programs. In the fall of 2012, UWM offered approximately 100 blended courses and enrolled 7,655 students (26%) in at least one blended course. UWM continues to see growth, as the nation does, and continues to provide opportunities for students to best meet their needs.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

21. Feedback & Testimonials
It was amazing. Quite
intense at times, but I
learned so many useful
things that I can
incorporate into my
instruction!
Jenn Light is an AMAZING
teacher. I learned so much
from her. Please continue to
use her as a teacher in your
program.
I do appreciate the
obvious time the
instructor put into giving
course feedback. It was
evident she put a great
deal of thought into her
comments and
suggestions.
The Blended Mastery Series
was truly an eye-opener.
The ability to interact with
instructors and designers
from all over the country
(even world) made it a very
enjoyable and mature
experience.
