a flash drive makes it more convenient to transport files you are working on.
Course Objectives:
Every assignment has a rubric. Most participants are successful on their assignments because they align their
work to the rubric.
All assignments are submitted under Assignments on BlackBoard with the exception of the Orientation
Activity (which is emailed to instructor) All assignments are due at midnight on the due date.
Instructional / Methods / Activities Assessments:
Each week will have a series of readings, activities and interactions. This course is designed to help you develop
the skills necessary to learn new skills, explore new technologies, evaluate social web tools for classroom
learning, and develop meaningful lessons using web 2.0 tools. It is important that you reach out to your fellow
classmates as your first sources of help. We tend to learn more in groups than we do individually. Please use the
discussion boards for posting questions on how to use different tools so I can monitor and assist as needed. You
will be exploring many different tools and we need to draw on the expertise of the group.
Grading Options
The final grade will be based on completion of all activities outlined in the course outline.
Letter grades will be assigned on the standard scale:
A = 90-100%
