Welcome to Technology + Media Literacy & Learning

md100

This course overview document introduces a technology and media literacy course where students will learn how to integrate technology to foster meaningful learning. Students will use various technology tools and media to learn both about and with technology. For the first assignment, students are instructed to explore the learning environment by reading course information, the contact page, scanning units 2 through 5, viewing the calendar, and taking a short, repeatable quiz to familiarize themselves with the course.

Getting information from only the teacher97

greg green

Gathering information solely from a teacher has some advantages and disadvantages for students. The advantages include learning what the teacher thinks is important and being tailored material for understanding, while disadvantages involve keeping up with the teacher's pace, difficulty concentrating during passive lectures, and not being actively involved or ready for tests from lectures alone. The best approach combines learning the teacher's priorities from class with actively engaging additional study materials.

Why my math grade is low

Math Is Super Cool

The document discusses reasons for low math grades and provides tips for improvement. It states that simply working hard is not enough, and that negative mindsets about math ability from others can negatively impact performance without realizing it. These mindsets can cause math anxiety and a belief that one is incapable of doing math. The document recommends positive self-talk about being a great math student, imagining getting good grades, and using humor and relaxation techniques to manage test anxiety. With a positive mindset and continued hard work, better grades can be achieved.

Getting Started at LJMU

JAHennessyMurdoch

The document provides tips and guidance for students starting at Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU). It recommends using tutors' recommendations on Canvas or the LJMU library to find quality sources to read. A video demonstrates how to effectively read sources by considering what the author is saying and how it compares to other writers. Students are advised to break down assignment questions, check word meanings, and review learning objectives to understand what is required. More time should be spent reading, taking notes, and planning than writing. Notes do not need to be neat but should be useful. When writing, paragraphs should follow a WEED structure of stating the topic, explaining it, providing evidence, and relating it back to the questions.

Course scheduling plans

Chris van Waes

Hey guys! For the people who have seen the poster and wonder what I actually want to do, here is the answer! It is a short powerpoint presentation (Not even 2 minutes) that explains a whole lot. Please contact me if you have any more questions! For the people who have not seen my poster (yet), please still take a look at it. It is about an idea to improve our system, but I need your help for that! The idea is simple and it won't take long to read. Please share the idea (and the post if you want to), because it really is something that needs to be under the attention of as much students as possible to work out. Kind regards, Chris

Ricardo Cezar

This document discusses Demand High Teaching, an approach that aims to get learners more engaged and focused on deep learning rather than just covering material. It questions if common teaching practices have become rituals that don't maximize learner potential. Demand High Teaching shifts the focus to sparking the learning engine by having teachers ask questions and wait for multiple student responses, discussions and debates rather than quickly validating one answer. Repeated practice is emphasized as the key to making this approach effective at an impactful level. Resources for learning more about Demand High Teaching are also provided.
