Bigatel, Paula M.; Edel-Malizia, Stephanie – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2018
This article is a case study of the use of the "Indicators of Engaged Learning Online" (IELO) framework (See Appendix 1) as a guide to evaluate the quality of online courses. The framework lends itself well to measures of engagement, particularly, in terms of online course design because of its comprehensiveness. Six online courses were…

Wyss, Vanessa L. – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2013
Student perceptions of science-oriented careers and scientists have been shown to be largely inaccurate. Through an instructional design and development process we have developed a method for offering students more accurate information about science-oriented careers. This paper follows the steps involved in developing a volume of…

White, Carmel Parker; Ramirez, Rich; Smith, Jessica G.; Plonowski, Lisa – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2010
The purpose of this case study was to determine the feasibility of delivering a course on-campus and in real time, simultaneously transmitting it to students who were remotely accessing the same course. In future years, it is anticipated that universities will have inadequate physical facilities to meet the demands of an increasing student…

Parton, Becky Sue; Hancock, Robert – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2008
Very young children learn by exploring their surroundings, mostly by playing, during which they construct mental representations of the world. In fact, prior to Piaget's formal operational stage, children need concrete, hands-on experiences rather than abstract concepts to support more natural learning, developing, and thinking. In terms of…

Wang, Charles Xiaoxue; Song, Hongbo; Stone, David E.; Yan, Qiaoqiao – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2009
Educational researchers and practitioners have paid considerable attention to the use of multiuser virtual environments (MUVEs) in recent years in order to support learning across curricula. Among MUVEs, Second Life (SL) is one of the most popular environments, with over 18 million account-registered users as of May 2008. This paper reports a…
