Personalized Learning Made Simple & Affordable: Waymaker Lumen Learning
Students learn at their own pace, but they learn more effectively in environments that reflect their individual learning needs. Attend this webinar to see Waymaker, the new personalized learning courseware from Lumen.
Presenter: Joseph Gliddon
Organisation: Bristol University
Description: This session explores work implemented over several years at the University of Bristol to develop a scalable workflow for coursework assessment and feedback online.
The workflow combines technical and pedagogic planning to support lasting cultural change. This uses Blackboard packages, which can also support consistent provision of other activities across multiple courses.
This work was done to address key challenges in this area, including:
-meeting complex requirements in a consistent way
-needing a standard approach which is scalable across multiple courses
-ownership of the process by Schools to ensure sustainability
-easily updating content across many courses with minimum editing
Session covers policy, pedagogic approaches, engaging academic & administrative leads, and the process.

Hacking the Faculty: Bringing Content Discovery Into Online Course DevelopmentAthena Hoeppner
Presentation given at Computers in Libraries, in April 2014.
Original Proposal/Abstract: Discovering resources is easier than ever, yet barriers remain for faculty trying to embed quality content into online courses. Course development tools are silo-ed away from content discovery systems, so faculty must leave the Learning Management System (LMS) to seek articles and e-books, then navigate back to the LMS to paste the link. They need to know how to identify persistent URLs and how to enable off-campus access. The process is tedious and fraught with pitfalls. At the University of Central Florida, the Library and the Center for Distributed Learning collaborated to integrate content discovery and selection seamlessly into course creation. The result, dubbed Library Tool, is presented as a simple icon in the LMS on the page-creation form. Library Tool opens a simple search form which returns a results list of full text articles. Faculty can add any article to their page with a single click. The Tool leverages the Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) standards and EBSCO's API, which can be easily adapted by other institutions. The presenters will demonstrate the Library Tool in action and briefly describe the development process as well as an overview of the LTI standard and the EDS API. Finally, we will share preliminary usage and faculty response and will discuss options for future developments.
Jingsong Yu will share his teaching experience in MOOC/SPOC for computer aided translation technologies. He will describe how they identify course goals and syllabus and how they organize the whole teaching activities to meet the industry requirements for a qualified student, especially how they improve our students' critical thinking and practical skills.

A presentation on Course Design and Implementation of Course Delivery in Open and Distance Learning.
Delivered during University of Ibadan Cascade Training for all Academic Staffs in Distance Learning Programme.
Presented at Sloan-C Blended, Milwaukee, WI, July 8th, 2013
With the increase in the diffusion of blended and online programming across higher educational institutions, stakeholders are looking for ways to ensure the quality of the student experience. Quality of blended programs can be ensured through faculty and instructional development and training, faculty and instructor evidence of competence and recognition for excellence, constructive evaluation and feedback on blended and online course design and delivery, and community-building opportunities among instructors and staff. Blended learning is becoming a prominent mode of programming and delivery in education. It is swiftly emerging and transforming higher education to better meet the needs of our students providing them with more effective learning experiences. This movement is leading to a renovation in the way courses are taught and programs support their students. Instructional and faculty development provides the core foundation to institutional programming in providing a framework for implementing blended and online learning pedagogy in the classroom. This student-centered, active learning pedagogy has the potential to alter the traditional classroom by enhancing course effectiveness through increased interactivity leading to superior student outcomes.
A recent study reported that "Respondents ... anticipated that the number of students taking online courses will grow by 22.8% and that those taking blended courses will grow even more over the next 2 years" (Picciano, Seamen, Shea, & Swan, 2012, p. 128). As the demand for blended learning opportunities increases, so does the need for development of instructors to teach and design blended courses and mechanisms to ensure the quality of courses and programs. The University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee (UWM) has been providing instructional development and blended learning opportunities to students for over a decade. Since 2001, UWM has developed 8 blended degree programs. In the fall of 2012, UWM offered approximately 100 blended courses and enrolled 7,655 students (26%) in at least one blended course. UWM continues to see growth, as the nation does, and continues to provide opportunities for students to best meet their needs.
