Damian Radcliffe AEJMC 2020 10 x tips for online teaching
Slides from a Teaching Panel Session - 2020 AEJMC Conference - "We’ve Got This: Best Practices in Online Teaching, and How Teaching Journalism and Mass Communication Prepares Us for the Big Pivot Online"

Damian Radcliffe, Oregon
The quick pivot to remote instruction in spring 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic was challenging for all educators, but as we continue with some forms of online teaching for the foreseeable future because of the pandemic, we as journalism, communication, advertising, and public relations educators should actually embrace it. Why? Because what many of us teach students to do — create digital content that engages audiences and helps them better live their lives — is highly congruent with what we’re being asked to do in the online classroom. This session will discuss the challenges of online teaching and how our digital media knowledge and skills can be used to effectively deliver content, engage students, and model for them the skills we expect them to develop in digital media programs. We’ll also discuss best practices for online teaching and how those congruent skills can be applied to accomplish these goals.

econtent for effective learning
E-content generation involves creating digital educational content that can be accessed online. It is becoming increasingly important with more students learning remotely. Some key trends in e-content development include adaptive learning which allows students to set their own pace, gamification to boost engagement, and immersive learning using VR/AR. Microlearning breaks content into short bite-sized pieces and video-based learning has become more popular than text-based content. Social learning and interactive content also help engage students by applying concepts and receiving feedback. E-content experts must stay up to date on new technologies and tools to develop high-quality digital materials that appeal to different learning styles.
Multimedia & web content
This document discusses multimedia and its educational implications. Multimedia is content that uses a combination of media like text, audio, images, video and interactive content. It can be recorded, displayed or interacted with using electronic devices. There are several multimedia packages including text, graphics, audio, video, animation and interactive content. The educational implications of multimedia include deeper understanding, improved problem solving, increased positive emotions and access to a vast variety of information. It also allows students to explore places virtually. Easy ways to use technology in the classroom include virtual field trips using apps, using videos for mini-lessons, and adding multimedia elements to presentations.

Frog 13 - Microsoft - Innovative teaching and learning with BYOD
Education continues to be the bell weather for innovation and opportunity to do things differently with technology. Consumerisation is driving change and consequently there is a demand for new ways of working, from BYOD to Flipped Classroom to MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses).
Amongst this opportunity we need to ensure that technology is indeed going to serve teaching and learning appropriately; Teachers need to be trained on how to apply these innovations in and outside the classroom.
In this session, we will share our observations on what it means to introduce BYOD to your school, the challenges, the opportunities and how to bring this all together in a well formed teaching and learning package, where you are using Microsoft technologies and services (such as Windows 8 and Office 365).

Salzburg June08
The document discusses the use of ePortfolios by students at a UK school to record their learning and reflections. It notes that the school has developed a multimedia ePortfolio system that 550 students across various year levels use to compile and present evidence of their work, achievements, and reflections.

Fostering Student Engagement in Online Teaching
Fostering Student Engagement in Online TeachingCentre for the Integration of Research, Teaching and Learning (CIRTL) in University College Cork
Workshop for Higher Education staff on how to foster student engagement online. This workshop draws on useful frameworks to help shape teaching practice, proposes tips for teaching live online classes as well as designing self-paced online learning environments, and will culminate in the development of a plan to begin weaving in some of these ideas. Hybrid learning
As teachers and students in NZ begin their 2022 school year the presence of Omicron threatens to disrupt their plans. To be best prepared, schools must consider a plan for hybrid learning - which could have much longer lasting benefits than simply addressing the immediate concerns.

Knowledge or understanding
Knowledge refers to facts and information that a person has learned or discovered. Understanding goes deeper and refers to a person's ability to take what they know and apply and integrate it in meaningful ways. Some key differences are that knowledge is abstract and theoretical while understanding is more practical, knowledge involves remembering ideas while understanding involves being able to explain them, and knowledge can be shared while understanding is personal.
