Feedback/Grade for AT1:CMS/LMS Rationale

Assignment 1: CMS/LMS feedback & grades posted. See Vista for detailed feedback & Grade.

 

Common Feedback for Assignment 2 LMS/CMS

 

Thanks for the Assignment 2!  I enjoy reading it.  This is a very important assignment because it provides us opportunity to understand the features, tools, strengths, and weaknesses of each CMS/LMS/PLEs.  How comprehensive our understanding on them would have major impacts on our final project unit.

 

Below is some suggestions/information for you to improve your paper.

  • Q: Can I change CMS/LMS after I completed assignment 2?
  • A: Yes, throughout the semester, you may gain better understanding on different systems.  Be sure you have “comprehensive” understanding on the system you intend to use for your final project.
  • If you choose to integrate CMS/LMS, you still can integrate Web 2.0 tools to strengthen your distributed learning unit since most Web 2.0 tools have potential to support distributed learning by nature.
  • Distributed learning (Unit) is not about CMS/LMS.  Simply using them doesn’t mean we are designing distributed learning environments.  It is about integrating “tools/technologies” and “instructional strategies/pedagogies.”  What are distributed learning instructional strategies?  Many our course activities are the examples of distributed learning strategies, such as lesson discussion moderations with guidelines/instructions, Jigsaw instruction for Treatise paper with guidelines/instructions, Peer Evaluation on Treatise paper and final project unit etc.
  • “Accessibility” is not about how easy or open to access course materials.  Accessibility refers to web page information/content being obtainable and functional to people with disabilities. It is about providing access to information for those who would otherwise lose their opportunity to use the web. To learn more: http://www.d.umn.edu/itss/support/Training/Online/access/what/
