Case Study Final For your final you will select one of the three case studies below. One case study is oriented toward K-12 distributed education; a second toward higher education degree programs; and the third toward workplace education across distance. For the case study you select below, imagine that you are on a special task force charged with proposing a way to handle the situation it describes. Your mission is to prepare a four-page , single-spaced textual report, using APA format and suitable for publication in a newsletter that provides a rationale justifying the usage of six interactive media. Your paper will include 3-4 additional resources that you researched to support your position including a description and definition of the six interactive media, a cover page and reference page ( total pages should be no less than 5 pages) . You will submit your report via the assignment link and web site by 6/11/19 11:59p . Case Study 1: K-12 Distributed Learning A public middle school has been selected as the site of a special study, supported by the district and funded by a private foundation. The goal of this research is to use a "distributed learning" strategy for linking the school with its surrounding community, particularly families and businesses. The method for accomplishing this goal is to use six ways of interacting across distance (asynchronous discussions, synchronous interaction in MUVEs, low-end groupware like Google Docs, telementoring, website-based archives, and Internet-based videoconferencing)—plus face-to-face interaction. Money is not a major issue -- this is a rich private foundation interested in creating a national demonstration site. However, your recommendations should be practical (e.g., the foundation would not fund home videoconferencing stations for each family in the entire community, but might fund a number of videoconferencing stations in community centers and libraries). The primary challenge with which your task group is charged is to select which of the six media above should be used to accomplish various types of linkages. (For example, in linking parents and teachers, should the primary medium be face to face? a MUVE? asynchronous discussions?). For each kind of linkage below, your group is asked to recommend which of the six media to use as the primary communications method across distance, providing a substantive rationale for the choice. a. linking teachers and parents b. linking community members with special expertise to students studying topics based on that expertise c. linking teachers and business people interested in articulating the skills high school graduates should have and the role the middle school should play d. linking students to students in other regions for collaborative learning e. linking taxpayers, school administrators, and the school board to share ideas on how this demonstration site should evolve f. accomplishing any other linkages you feel are impor ...
