EDVH 5581 Online-extended Teaching (3)
A hybrid course combines face-to-face instruction and web- or computer-based learning. Common features of hybrid courses will be explored including the delivery of the syllabus, effective online lectures, readings and assignments on web pages; discussions and presentations through online message boards, e-mail chats; interactive tutorials and labs; and on-line assessments. By taking advantage of web-enhanced instruction, less in-class time can be spent on mundane tasks and more time can be spent on collaborative, flexible and meaningful activities that incorporate all student learning styles.
In this six week course, teachers determine what aspects of their course are best suited to presentation online, create new approaches to communicating with students and create active independent learning experiences for students. Using computer-based technologies, instructors use the hybrid model to redesign some lecture or lab content into new online learning activities, such as case studies, tutorials, self-testing exercises, simulations, and online group collaborations.
