The third article in a three-part series discusses ways to enhance communication with students and promote connectedness when delivering a distance online course. Students in distance programs may have feelings of not being connected to the instructor and peers leading to dissatisfaction and isolation. Methods of how the instructor can promote an environment of connectedness through the use of announcements, video conferencing, video updates, scheduled phone calls, and office hours will be discussed. The first paper discussed the history of distance learning, the positives and negatives of online learning, advantages and disadvantages of online learning, and the initial considerations for establishing online courses. The second paper delved into understanding of the learning platform, developing a course model, creating individual assignment rubrics for courses, requiring active participation from both instructor and students, and setting-up quality communication.

Online learning is the fastest growing segment in the educational marketplace (Conhaim, 2003). As the number of online courses increases and distance learning programs grow in popularity, questions of quality and comparability of online courses with traditional methods naturally arise (Schulman & Sims, 1999). While online learning is the fastest growing educational segment, partly in thanks to on-campus students who choose to take courses online, there are still debates about not only the quality of the course content, but the quality of the technology used as well. According to Bowman (2003), in “the history of higher education, online classes are relatively new, and it is yet to be determined how to take full advantage of the technology” (p. 73). Traditional face-to-face courses, which may have been proven successful in terms of evaluations and outcomes assessments, are increasingly being converted to online courses. A study by Smith, Ferguson, and Caris (2000) concluded: “Contrary to intuition, current Web-based online college courses are not an alienating, mass-produced product. They are a laborintensive, highly text-based, intellectually challenging forum which elicits deeper thinking on the part of the students” (p. 67). Converting a traditional classroom course that is intellectually challenging and that elicits deeper thinking into an online course that can do the same can be a harrowing task. The process of converting a face-to-face course into an online course without compromising the course’s integrity and quality is a difficult burden to overcome. The burden of the conversion process can be eased, however, through the use of course maps.

ABSTRACT Teaching and training using online video material in science is on the rise. Science students entering universities today are of a “YouTube generation,” most likely already having a history of accessing educational videos for learning at school. Here, we report on our experiences with preparing a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) for the COURSERA platform in the area of computational wave propagation. We describe the complexity of the process but also highlight the opportunities that this form of training offers on state‐of‐the‐art e‐learning platforms. It is foreseeable that in the future universities will promote combinations of direct and supervised online course learning, allowing for more flexibility and variability of training content. We propose that Earth‐Science‐specific databases with links to online courses should be developed, making such courses more accessible to the research community.


This chapter is devoted to the third D of the 5Ds model and last step of the planning phase, the develop stage. It covers three significant steps developing the web-based instructional strategy and the web-based instructional package. It also includes the development of the online course syllabus, along with an online class schedule, and provides examples of each step.


This chapter is devoted to the second D of the 5Ds model, design. In the design stage, four instructional design concepts are covered, including conducting the instructional analysis for online course instruction, writing the performance objectives, classifying the objectives based on the learning domains, and developing the objective-based assessment. The author's story presented in this chapter is used as an illustrative visual aid of the instructional analysis and learning hierarchy concepts.

Two early nineteenth century texts treating the production and use of wax models of fruit reveal the history of these objects in the context of courtly decoration. Both sources emphasise the models' decorative qualities and their suitability for display, properties which were not simply by-products of the realism that the use of wax allowed. Thus, such models were not regarded merely as visual aids for educational purposes. The artists who created them sought to entice collectors of art and natural history objects, as well as teachers and scientists. Wax models of fruits are known to have been collected and displayed as early as the seventeenth century, although only one such collection is extant. Before the early nineteenth century models of fruits made from wax or other materials (glass, marble, faience) were considered worthy of display because contemporaries attached great importance to mastery of the cultivation and grafting of fruit trees. This skill could only be demonstrated by actually showing the fruits themselves. Therefore, wax models made before the early nineteenth century may also be regarded as attempts to preserve natural products beyond the point of decay.

This essay is written to present a prospective stance on how learning analytics, as a core evaluative approach, must help instructors uncover the important trends and evidence of quality learner data in the online course. A critique is presented of strategic and tactical issues of learning analytics. The approach to the critique is taken through the lens of questioning the current status of applying learning analytics to online courses. The goal of the discussion is twofold: (1) to inform online learning practitioners (e.g., instructors and administrators) of the potential of learning analytics in online courses and (2) to broaden discussion in the research community about the advancement of learning analytics in online learning. In recognizing the full potential of formalizing big data in online coures, the community must address this issue also in the context of the potentially "harmful" application of learning analytics.

A sociedade contemporânea é marcada por três macrotendências que a identificam como uma sociedade singular na história humana: processo de mudança acelerada, desigualdade crescente e fibrilhação dos sistemas de poder. Tais tendências têm tido como efeitos um quadro de ameaças e oportunidades que tanto têm constituído gigantesco desafio aos sistemas educativos quanto configuram a urgência de ressocialização de todas as gerações vivas no sentido da construção de uma cidadania global. Nesse contexto, propõe-se um modelo que configura uma estratégia de educação para a cidadania, com dois eixos, quatro vertentes e dez áreas-chave. Seguidamente, descreve-se e discute-se a emergência quase explosiva dos Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) a partir de instituições de ensino superior internacionalmente reconhecidas, no quadro do novo paradigma digital, sua diversidade e seu potencial ainda em aberto. Confrontando a nova abordagem educativa com o modelo de educação para a cidadania proposto, conclui-se constituir um meio robusto para o potenciar.Palavras-chave:Conjuntura. Macrotendências. Educação para a cidadania. MOOC. Tecnologia educativa. Paradigma digital.Link: http://revista.ibict.br/inclusao/article/view/4171/3642
