Book Synopsis Advancing Online Course Design and Pedagogy for the 21st Century Learning Environment by : Chatham, Daniel
Download or read book Advancing Online Course Design and Pedagogy for the 21st Century Learning Environment written by Chatham, Daniel and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current learning environment is substantially different than what existed for most of the 20th century. Learners and teachers today must navigate in perpetually changing contexts where education is influenced by technological advancement and obsolescence, economic barriers, a changing employment landscape, and even international politics. Studies indicate that employers seek to hire graduates with strong skills in areas coalescing around international awareness, creativity, communication, leadership, and teamwork. Skills and experiences in these areas are necessary preparation for the current economy and to pursue jobs that do not exist yet, while providing some insulation against the obsolescence of industries that lack these characteristics. These interpersonal skills are not often the subject of students’ degrees, yet there are opportunities in online education to cultivate them. With increased interest in new career options comes the need to reconsider how to teach subjects in the increasingly online environment. Advancing Online Course Design and Pedagogy for the 21st Century Learning Environment is a critical reference book that navigates today’s dynamic education requirements and provides examples of how online learning can foster growth in skill areas necessary for career advancement through effective course design. Moreover, it helps educators gain insight into online pedagogy and course design for the 21st century learner and prepares them to convert traditional courses and enhance existing online courses, thereby supporting students’ growth and development in the highly dynamic online learning environment. Focusing on specific learning activities, assessments, engagement, communication techniques, and more, this book provides a valuable resource for those seeking to upgrade teaching and learning into the online environment, those that seek better employment outcomes for their students, and those seeking to explore contemporary online course design strategies or examples. This includes teachers, instructional designers, curriculum developers, academicians, researchers, and students.
Book Synopsis The TWI Facilitator's Guide by : Donald A. Dinero
Download or read book The TWI Facilitator's Guide written by Donald A. Dinero and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-09-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many books available covering the Training Within Industry (TWI) programs, but few include any unique material on adaptation or modification – This dearth of new has caused practitioners to alter the programs without understanding the underlying principles. These changes have made the programs less effective. One must, however, maintain the principles used in the programs when changing the delivery of the programs to suit the culture. The purpose of The TWI Facilitator's Guide: How to Use the TWI Programs Successfully is to prevent the TWI programs from falling into misuse and disuse. This book will explain the main principles of the TWI programs and what they can accomplish, but it will also stress what they are not. This book reviews what the programs are and then explains how to use them. It tells why we do certain aspects of each program. When we know why we do something, we won’t stop doing it for the wrong reason.
Book Synopsis Financial Supervision in the 21st Century by : A. Joanne Kellermann
Download or read book Financial Supervision in the 21st Century written by A. Joanne Kellermann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The financial crisis prompted financial supervisors to take a critical look at their own performance. The "toolkit" available to supervisors is considerably more varied than it was a few years ago. Supervision has become more forward-looking, taking into account also soft controls, such as ‘conduct and culture’, corporate governance, and business models of financial institutions. This collection of essays discusses several significant changes in supervision methods and supervisory organisations and examines what methods contribute to ‘good supervision’ and what can reasonably be expected of supervisors. The authors are experts in the field and most of them are affiliated to organisations responsible for financial supervision.
Book Synopsis Supervision That Improves Teaching and Learning by : Susan Sullivan
Download or read book Supervision That Improves Teaching and Learning written by Susan Sullivan and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2009-05-27 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exciting, new edition of Supervision That Improves Teaching, the authors have taken their reflective clinical supervision process to a new level and focused on the demands that diversity and technology have placed on the supervision cycle. The authors recognize that if supervision of instruction is to be successful, we must address these needs. Therefore, they have built this third edition around the context of diversity within a technological environment. Our new scenarios describe teaching and learning dilemmas for English Language Learners. An additional case study also highlights English Language Learners within the context of "Critical Friends" groups and new observation tools center on the diversity of our schools. Finally, suggestions abound for use of the book within a technological environment - from blogs and wikis to strategies for teaching a hybrid or completely online course. Sullivan and Glanz have also addressed the dilemmas of preserving meaningful supervision in an era of high-stakes testing and local, state, and national standards. The authors′ reflective clinical supervision model encourages and prepares educators to be thoughtful collaborators in improving classroom instruction. And they have extended the options for teacher observation to a thorough but manageable set of tools for standards-based supervision. Outstanding additions to the third edition include: - New scenarios, cases and tools focus on the need for differentiated instruction for diverse and exceptional populations in the schools - Use of this book to evaluate the technological environment in schools in areas such as distance learning, online training, blogging and research - The authors draw a clearer distinction between evaluation and supervision in this 3rd edition - The timeline for the Supervision cycle in Chapter 1 has been updated and revised - Observation Instruments in Chapter 3 have been revised to be more reader and user friendly - Strategies and observation tools for maintaining reflective supervision in a standards-based environment This bestselling approach continues to offer interpersonal tools for initiating and providing feedback on classroom observations, alternative approaches to common supervision practices, and the tools necessary for present and future educational leaders to develop dynamic conversations about learning between and among educators-the essence of what effective supervision is really about.
Book Synopsis Teaching Mathematics for the 21st Century by : Linda Huetinck
Download or read book Teaching Mathematics for the 21st Century written by Linda Huetinck and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2008 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition of T eaching Mathematics for the 21st Century continues to help teachers let the secret out-to open up to their students the wonderful discoveries and challenges of the pattern-making and problem-solving aspects of a fascinating subject: mathematics. The rationale remains the same-to enable prospective and current teachers to access and use tools and strategies to effectively teach mathematics to contemporary students. Changing demographics, knowledge of how people learn, and technology all impact the way we educate our young people. This edition incorporates lessons and strategies from programs that have proven success in many types of classrooms. Many of these examples help students connect mathematics to real life situations and communicate their understanding of the underlying concepts. Although technology is constantly being upgraded, ways to increase student motivation through its application remains a goal. For example--since applets can enhance a lesson whether the teacher uses a computer projector, a "smart" board, or has students work individually on computers--we have identified several sources of mathematics applets that can be correlated to various lessons. Research citations and summaries have been updated to reflect current information on teaching and learning. For future teachers.

Book Synopsis Architecting Collaboration by : Paul Nunesdea
Download or read book Architecting Collaboration written by Paul Nunesdea and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you a collaboration architect without even knowing? When you think of yourself as a collaboration architect, you can start to apply a range of methods, digital tools, and facilitation techniques to accomplish your goals. This book is made from a compilation of my +50 LinkedIn articles about meetings, workshops, group facilitation, and my invented notion of a 'collaboration architect'. In fact, you do not really need to purchase it because all its content is published and freely available online on LinkedIn and in my blog. Every successful product is the fruit of hard work, and this also applies to books. Yet, in this case, all the work is already done and nothing is left undone, as Lao Tzu once said. I have collected and curated the articles that I consider valuable, regardless of the time of publication and organized a chapter structure under several sections that you might find useful to your purpose as a reader. As an IAF (TM) Certified Professional Facilitator, I am aware that every meeting we design is a touch point for anyone to experience an engaging moment in their lives with a tangible outcome that you can measure. The same goes when writing about the professional and organizational roles of a collaboration architect. Yet, this one is not a book about group facilitation, and you should be warned about this from the start. However, you may find some examples of the IAF core competencies reflected in this collection of articles. For this reason, I decided to map the IAF Competencies in the chapters' content as way to provide some sort of guidance to you as a reader, and better decide which ones to read and which to skip. As always happens in any facilitated process, as a participant you are in charge. I do hope you enjoy reading my articles organized in this collection as a book that is yours to keep.
