6. with Anne
used backwards design strategy
thought about one small unit of learning
filled out TPACK alignment chart
11. pick an LMS
with Anne, you were exposed to several LMSs
and to an evaluation chart
now, you’re going to pick one LMS to use for
your online module
after you decide on your LMS, sign up for an
account
after the break, you’re going to start creating
your online course module!
12. pick an LMS
coursesites coursesites.com
weebly weebly.com
haiku myhaikuclass.com
google
classroom
classroom.google.com
These are just a few examples, you can
pick any other LMS.
14. design your online course
module
now, you’re going to start creating your online
course module!
take a few minutes and explore the LMS you
picked
then start building your online course module
Here is the agenda for today. We are going to cover two main topics: design thinking and universal design for learning. At the end, you will have time to reflect on what you learned and ask questions.
Over the last few days, we introduced you to the ins and outs of online teaching and learning. This is a summary of the topics that we covered over the last few days.
During Anne’s first session, you were introduced to the backwards design strategy and filled out a TPACK alignment chart.
Instructions from Anne’s session:
Think about one small unit of learning within your semester.
Perhaps 3 or 4 weeks worth of learning. For this unit, fill out
the chart in your workbook. After 10 minutes, turn to a
partner. Take turns sharing your chart. Provide your partner
with at least one affirmation of their work. Provide your
partner with at least two things they may consider including or
revising.
This is the alignment chart you filled out.
The idea behind backwards planning is that you start with stating what you want your students to learn by the end of the lesson or module (This refers to the Content circle in TPACK). Then you think about what activities (or Pedagogies) you and students will do to meet these goals. Finally, you consider the Technologies you will use to support these goals.
For the next 30 minutes, I want you to revisit your backwards design table. We covered a lot of content these past two days, and I want you to take another look at the table you created and update it based on what you learned.
SPECIFICALLY, I want you to focus on developing one chapter/unit/module. That is, I want you to think concretely about one module that is made up of 3 to 5 lessons. I don’t want you to think about an entire course, just one part of it. Think about the following:
Particular curricular module: What's the specific topic you will cover in your online course module?
Learning goals for the module: What will students have learned by the end of this module? In other words, what are the measurable learning objectives?
Learning activities: What will the learning activities look like?
Potential methods of assessment: How will you know the model is successful and students have learned what you planned for them to learn? Just start articulating specific thoughts, beyond the general "formative", "summative" stuff, about what your assessments will be, and the criteria you'll use to evaluate student work.
Also, I want you to think about the following:
Course model: Will this be a completely online course? A blended/hybrid course? If the latter, how will the online portion of the course fit with the face-to-face portion?
Classroom interactions: What your ideas for class interaction for both teacher and students? How will you interact with the students? How will the students interact with each other?
Universal design for learning: How will I use the universal design for learning guidelines?
After you’re done, I want you to turn to a peer, and share with them your new alignment table. Give each other feedback.

Take the next 15 minutes to reflect on what you learned over the past few days. Take a look at your notes and write down about something that surprised you, that you found challenging, that you found interesting…. and so on.
