Students’ Perceptions of the Value of the Elements of an Online Learning Environment: An Investigation of Discipline Differences
Penn State Sony Reader Project
This document summarizes Anne Behler's work on the Sony Reader Project at Penn State University. In fall 2008, the project involved classes in first year seminars and English composition, as well as lending readers for leisure reading. In spring 2009, the project expanded to include disability services, an English graduate seminar, and more leisure lending. Next steps discussed expanding lending to branch campuses, scholarly communications, download-on-demand lending, and device-independent reading and lending. The document concludes by discussing vendor partnerships, user services, and format challenges.

The document discusses a study that compared the reading comprehension and test scores of high school students when using electronic devices versus printed materials. The study found that students performed significantly better on reading comprehension tests and had higher scores when using printed materials rather than electronic devices like iPads. While electronic reading may be preferable for leisure, students are not yet as effective at academic reading on screens. More research is needed on students who have learned to read primarily using electronic materials.

The document discusses a study that tested teenagers' reading effectiveness when using electronic devices versus printed materials in an academic setting. The study found that students scored significantly lower on reading comprehension tests after reading material on electronic screens compared to paper. Students also took almost twice as long to read the same material on electronic devices. While teenagers may prefer electronic reading for leisure, the findings suggest they read more efficiently using printed texts for academic purposes. More research is needed to see if longer exposure to electronic reading could impact reading effectiveness differently.

It proposes a value metric (V1) that is the product of stakeholder satisfaction (S1), co-investment/investment (C1), and employee satisfaction (E1). It provides examples of how V1 could be applied to measure value at the institution and researcher level, and discusses approaches to aggregate value measurements to the national level. The document concludes that developing meaningful value metrics is challenging but important to capture the full benefits of research data.
Confidence is key: a successful approach to teaching statistics
Teaching statistics has increasingly been regarded as a complex mission to accomplish as it consists of many different mathematical components with many variables. Despite extensive research work in developing education in statistics, this discipline still requires significant improvement in how it is taught. Most students at university have a lack of interest in undertaking statistics courses due different factors - some of them are related to teaching techniques and others are related to method of assessment.
In these slides, Saad Odeh presents an effective teaching technique in statistics developed by SIBT teachers. Rather than enabling the cohort by providing them with extra help to progress in statistics, the idea was to improve their confidence when they do the major assessment, 'the final exam'.

Listening to Children
Listening to children is important for communication and development. Parents should make time to listen to their children, whether through daily conversations, reading together, or setting aside special listening times. Effective listening involves making eye contact, reflecting back what the child said to confirm understanding, and responding supportively without criticism. It is also important to respect the child's privacy and views. Seeking help from organizations can support parents struggling to communicate with their children.

This is a compilation of projects I have completed in my educational technology classes that meet the five ISTE NETS Standards for Teachers.
Soft Systems Methodology
1. Soft systems methodology is a problem-solving approach developed to address complex organizational situations. It views the system as "systemic" rather than "systematic" and uses "human activity systems".
2. The four stages of SSM are: 1) finding out about the problem situation, 2) formulating relevant models of human activity, 3) debating the situation using the models, and 4) taking action to improve the situation.
3. Key aspects of the first stage include analyzing processes, structures, climate, and issues through rich pictures and three analyses of the intervention, social system, and political system.

Smart tables autism
- 1. Smart Tablets and Students with Autism Kara J. Beard Heritage University
Editor's Notes
- The purpose of this article is to explore whether or not smart tablets would be beneficial for readers that are behind their grade level. Specifically, would autistic students have an increase in comprehension after using an iPad interactive e-book?
- Over the course of a year, data was collected on thirty students ranging from middle school to beyond high school. Each student had to read a traditionally printed book and answer comprehension questions and then read an interactive ebook and answer comprehension questions again. All participants are diagnosed with autism and at least four grade levels behind in reading.
- Only one child did not improve when using an iPad interactive ebook. No student had a decrease in results. Middle school grades had a 21% rate of increase in comprehension, high school had 25% and participants between 18 and 22 had a 21% rate of increase in comprehension.
- Teachers reported that students were more engaged when using an iPad ebook and off-task behavior was reduced. When using appropriate behavior, some students chose to use the iPad ebooks as their reward.
- Because of the positive results when using an iPad, schools should consider the use of iPads with autistic students. No two students with autism are the same and some students had a significant increase in comprehension while others had little.
- The use of iPads have the potential to improve the use of technology in schools. The set back, with the current budget cuts, is the price of each iPad. Also, the availability of Wi-Fi at various schools could be a challenge.
- The thirty students included in the study showed statistically significant improvements in comprehension after using an iPad interactive ebook versus a traditionally printed book. Autistic students showed a variety of results but no student had a decrease in comprehension. Students also showed an improvement in behavior when using an iPad.
