As enrollments in online courses increase and online learning becomes a larger part of institutions' long-term planning, faculty and administrators are confronted with finding ways to improve retention in online courses and online programs. In this free webinar, presented by Academic Partnerships, the literature on attrition in online learning will be discussed as well as various strategies used to improve student retention in online learning.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

● Substitution - computer technology is used
to do the same task.
● Augmentation - computers are an effective
tool to perform common tasks
● Modification - computers enhance learning
by allowing creativity
● Redefinition - computers support student-
centered learning and collaboration
20. Substitution
● Typing text instead of writing
● Research online instead of in the library
● Ebooks on tablets
● PowerPoint instead of posters
● Online concept maps instead of on paper
● Google docs as worksheets
● Padlet as “post it” notes
24. Augmentation
● Padlet for online pinboards - brainstorming,
exit slips, questions and
reflectiohttp://padlet.com/wall/Learn2013
● Wordle or Tagxedo for word clouds
http://www.wordle.net/
http://www.tagxedo.com/
• Prezi for presentations at http://prezi.com
28. Modification
● Google forms for feedback, quizzes, student
surveys and gathering data
● Skype and Twitter allowing synchronous
connections with experts, peers and
communities outside the classroom.
29. Twitter
• Experts in your
classroom
• Global
conversations
• Instant answers
to your
questions
• Just-in-time
conversations
34. Redefinition
● QR codes
● Student-created videos
● Collaborative Google docs
● Blogs and wikis
● Digital buckets (eg. Thinglink and Blendspace
- formerly edcanvas)
35. Redefinition
● Thinglink allows users to create a dynamic,
interactive image with links to YouTube,
wikipedia, how stuff works and other
websites. http://www.thinglink.com/
● Blendspace allows the user to collate
multiple resources under one URL.

37. Hi Britt,
I am so sorry this is so late, I went straight from my last exam to East Timor but
I'm home now, and I really need to thank you for all your extra efforts and hard
work you had put into me throughout the year despite not being your student-
this is something not many people would do.
Thank you for including me in your class, I see you so highly and I was
constantly impressed by how kind you were each week.
Your help was invaluable to me, and I didn't feel so alone in the subject.
I know that whatever study score I receive in the next week or so, that I can
thank you for it, and it might just be the thing that makes that difference.
I have tried to spread the word to the coming Year 11/12 that if they would like
to study environmental science like I had, that you are the best option.
Thank you for having such a positive impression on me.
Enjoy your Christmas and all the best in the new year!
- Sally :)
