This document outlines an e-training environment project for Omani school teachers called Bawabat Sahel. It aims to provide continuous, online training for teachers through instructional programs, teaching strategies, and technology integration sections on a website. A needs analysis found teachers lack continuous training opportunities. The project goals are for teachers to apply new teaching strategies, design content, and integrate technology. The target audience is all Omani teachers who will use the site from any computer. Resources, development process, and formative evaluation steps are also outlined.
Becoming a Program that Uses Video EvidenceAdam Geller
University of Michigan researchers share how teacher education programs can use video to enhance practice-focused learning experiences. Participants will consider examples and insights drawn from one elementary program’s five-year journey toward widespread use of video. Implementation strategies will be discussed.

Workshop: Setting the Foundations for an Iterative Course Evolution Model – A...Blackboard APAC
Elements of exemplary course design are well documented and readily accessible from various resources. Most notable are the Blackboard Exemplary Course Program (http://bit.ly/2jCURRd) and the Quality Matters Rubrics and Standards (http://bit.ly/2jdtwTG). While these are excellent resources that outlines the goals and standards to improve the learning experience of students in an online or blended course environment, workload associated with its deployment and management is difficult to evaluate.
With increasing strain on teaching and learning support teams within institutions, this exacerbates the challenge faced by instructors and academics of HOW to approach improving their courses in a scalable and manageable way.
This workshop will focus on facilitating participants in the development of a course evolution and management framework. The goal is to guide participants in establishing a unique set of foundations for course design, upon which iterative improvements can be planned and executed in a manageable manner. These can then be mapped against relevant Exemplary Course Design Rubric elements to create short-, mid-, and long-term milestones.
This presentation helps you to address the key challenges in remote teaching through various teaching platforms & tools for specific purpose, Effective use of technology using SAMR model. Educators can use this content to manage their own professional growth and well-being.

Abstract
This project, which aims to develop a professional portfolio for teacher educators and student teachers, is in its budding stage. The focus is to develop a Learning Management System with many of the social networking features.Student teachers can upload products including My Teaching Philosophy, Reflective Journal, Lesson Plans, Teaching Video and Photos in addition to detailed personal and academic profiles,.Every product is uploaded with a reflective note and there is a provision for comments and feedback. A major feature is to make performance assessment strategies as an integral part of the portfolio system. The self,peer, and mentor assessmentsare carried out using rubrics. Login to the system is also allowed for educational institutions, employers and guests and the public. It is expected that the system works as an effective tool for engaging student teachers and teacher educators to create and share a pool of pedagogical knowledge.

39. Factors that facilitate the project
We have studied some of the programs in some
courses.
We already have teaching practice this semester,
and that help us in the need assessment and the
evaluation of the project.
Contacting with some teachers from the Ministry,
especially from the Educational Technology and
Human Resources Departments.
Contacting some experts from the CET, especially
from the photography and Video and Sound
Departments.
Contacting some experts from Twitter.
40. Constrains:
Website Name
Preparing a big amount of tutorials in a short
period of time.
Website Photographs.
Animation Design.
In designing the website, we use weebly.com,
and we couldn't use all of the features because
some of them are not free.
In project implementation, only few teachers
attended a sample of teachers.
41. Recommendations:
It’s recommended for the Ministry of
Education to start using E-training for teachers
not just providing the workshops content in the
e-content section in there website.
We hope that this project will be
implemented by the Ministry, and if that
happen, the website will be continually
updated and more workshops will be added.
