This document provides information for students taking an online course on online course design at Boise State University in fall 2010. It outlines important dates and contact information for the instructor, describes the goals and topics to be covered in the course, lists required textbooks and software, and provides the overall schedule and assignments for the semester. Students will apply principles of instructional design to create their own fully developed online course over the course of the semester. Communication will primarily occur via email and online discussion boards.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

EdTech 512 Course Description
This course emphasizes an instructional design approach to the development of online courses that are engaging
and effective, and in alignment with standards and best practice as identified by research. Course participants
will create a fully-developed online course customized for use in their own instructional setting. Participants are
guided through the process of conducting needs assessments, defining course goals and objectives, designing
instructional lesson plans, activities and materials, and assessments. Consideration is given to various models of
online delivery, content organization and presentation, and graphic design principles.
The EdTech Program
The Department of Educational Technology supports the study and practice of facilitating and improving learning
of a diverse population by creating, using, and managing appropriate technological processes and resources.
Believing technology is a tool that enhances and expands the educational environment, we promote the use of
current and emergent technologies for teaching and learning in a dynamic global society. Educational
technologists are leaders and innovators, serving in institutions of higher education, public or private school
settings, federal, state or local educational agencies, and in education-related businesses in the private sector.

Course Expectations
Course work in EDTECH 512 is divided into 15 weeks of the semester. The 16th week is used for grading. Expect
to spend approximately 9 hours per week on this course. The amount of time actually needed will depend on
entry level skills and knowledge. This is an advanced elective course synthesizing skills and knowledge gained in
your core classes the Master's program. A familiarity with html, instructional design models, instructional
message design, and online teaching provide a good foundation for this course. If you are missing one or more
of these areas, anticipate the possibility of needing more time to synthesize and apply course content.
The types of assignments and the level of interactivity vary from week-to-week. This is not a self-paced course. I
will always try my best to give clear directions on what, where, when, and how in the weekly assignment folder.
Communication with the instructor and/or students in the class can be readily accomplished through the email,
group functions, and instant chat. A Student Lounge is provided in the Discussion Board. This provides an
opportunity for you to visit with other class members and discuss topics related and not related to this course.
I will provide as many opportunities for us to discuss questions and problems as a class as possible. You will see
information posted in our assignments.

Late Assignments
Sometimes situations occur that prevent us from working on our assignments on time especially with many of
your busy schedules. During the course, every student will be permitted one late assignment without losing any
points; however, the assignment cannot be turned in more than a week late. Any other assignments that are late
past this first initial late assignment will have one letter grade per day deducted from it.
During the last two weeks of class, all assignments must be turned in on time and cannot be submitted late.
The instructor is not responsible for any text or software that is not obtained in enough time to complete the
assignments.
Academic Honesty
For this course, we will be adhering to the BSU Student Code of Conduct along with generally accepted Fair Use
Policies for Instructors. We will also observe U.S. copyright laws in this course. Several great links to copyright
information are available on the BSU Academic Technologies site at: http://itc.boisestate.edu/resource.htm
According to the BSU Student Code of Conduct: "Cheating or plagiarism in any form is unacceptable. The
University functions to promote the cognitive and psychosocial development of all students. Therefore, all work
submitted by a student must represent her/his own ideas, concepts, and current understanding. Academic
dishonesty also includes submitting substantial portions of the same academic course work to more than one
course for credit without prior permission of the instructor(s)."
For this course the following standards will be used:
• All students are expected to create original works for each assignment. Projects and papers written for
other courses should not be reused for this class. To fairly assess each student, original work is needed
in order to assure everybody is receiving the most out of the class and that the concepts are understood.
• All project text should be original text written by each student. Any content that is referenced or has
small amounts of material quoted should be cited using APA format.
• Images or other media used in projects should be original, used with permission, or come from public
8. domain. Terms and conditions for usage should be checked before being used.
In the event of academic dishonesty a complaint is filed with the BSU Student Conduct Office with supporting
documentation. This complaint remains on file and actions may be taken against the student (e.g., loss or credit,
reduction in grade, etc.).
