  5. 1987: Chickering and Gamson, “Seven Principles” Educationally Crucial Activities Outcomes • Student-faculty contact • Student-student collaboration • Active learning • Prompt feedback • Time on task • Higher expectations • Value diverse ways of learning http://honolulu.hawaii.edu/intranet/committees/FacDevCom/guidebk/teachtip/7princip.htm

  6. Strategies: • Instructional scaffolding • Create assignments that require students to react to real life scenarios, etc. • Orchestrate interactive group projects • Use the Self-Tests for active review of materials • Vary the choice of ways students can complete assignment

  7. Strategies: • Let students know what type of feedback to expect from you & how often it will be provided • Post the grading schedule • Publish “office hours” on the course website • Hold “office hours” by video-conferencing, email, phone, etc.

  8. Strategies: • Provide examples of expected quality of work • Release statistics along with grades, so that students can see how they are performing as compared to the rest of the class (stats can give the mean grade and/or the frequencies). • Use the "Release Conditions" feature to release course info only as students achieve a certain level of success on a test.

  9. Strategies: • Utilize technology • Post audio and/or video recordings of lectures • Use graphics to supplement written information • Provide a dynamic, synchronous, interactive learning environment through chat and videoconferencing

  10. A learning management system (LMS) is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, and reporting of training programs, classroom and online events, e-learning programs, and training content
