Measuring the Effectiveness of Online Tutorials: A Pragmatic ApproachC Craig
This document summarizes research comparing the effectiveness of HTML versus streaming video tutorials for online library instruction. It finds that students learn more from video tutorials, as measured by confidence levels and quiz scores, because video tutorials use both visual and verbal modalities supported by dual coding theory and have a more linear navigation structure supported by constructivism. The researchers surveyed and tested students after viewing tutorials on Value Line Online, with video tutorial students reporting greater confidence gains and scoring higher on all quiz questions. The document concludes that while online tutorials can supplement live instruction, video tutorials are more effective for student learning.
This document discusses best practices for setting up a demo course in Canvas to help phone support representatives effectively assist users. It recommends creating a blank demo course to test features without affecting live courses, then importing basic content. A demo course allows support staff to quickly set up examples like graded discussions when answering user questions. Common questions covered include extra credit, moderating quizzes, weighting assignments, and more.
This is a presentation I gave to a group of professionals at an e-learning user conference in 2007. Having built a successful e-learning business, I created this presentation for those interested in similar ventures. It is more a list of things to consider before jumping in over your head in developing an e-learning business.
This special report discusses the results of a survey on the time savings provided by SMART Sync classroom management software. The survey found the software saves teachers an average of 14 minutes per typical 50-minute class, representing a 28% reduction in administrative tasks. Extrapolating to a full term, this equals savings of 7 hours of teaching time per classroom. The report explains how the proliferation of classroom computers has increased teachers' administrative burdens, and how classroom management software streamlines tasks like launching apps, sending files, and monitoring students. Overall it finds this type of software effectively addresses the challenge of "computer-lab chaos" by returning control of the classroom to teachers.
In this talk we presented our ideal programme team, current onboarding process for teachers and students, valuable lessons learned and reflect on the student and staff experience from a two year pilot of an innovative online programme.
