One of my course design goals this semester is to have all the course content assembled into a single PDF so that students and myself can have an archive of the class in one spot after the semester is over.

Since I use #emacs and org docs, I can write separate org files per assignment or reading item and either link to them directly on GitLab but also create an org file for the "book" and include the different pages, which I can then export to PDF.

Screenshot of my file explorer showing the cs 200 student repo directory with a week 1 and week 2 lab inside, each has practice sub-folders and graded program sub-folders, as well as an instructions.org file in both.

E-Learning Design on a Shoestring by Marina Arshavskiy, 2024

Design Effective E-Learning Courses Despite Limited Resources
Have you suddenly been asked to put together an e-learning course, but you have limited experience, time, or resources to do so? This happens often, and you're not alone. E-Learning Design on a Shoestring offers talent development professionals a process for designing and developing e-learning courses, without breaking the bank

E-learning expert Marina Arshavskiy applies the Build-Borrow-Buy approach to provide guidance, quick tips, and shortcuts for creating meaningful asynchronous learning experiences.

Michael Feldstein's project explores how AI can streamline course design for educators, potentially saving significant time and effort. By using AI tools like ALDA, educators might soon have innovative assistants. This aligns with my belief that AI should augment human expertise, yet ethical implications remain crucial.

Thank you to everyone who attended our lunch and learn workshop today. We had great conversations about applying engineering design to lab course development. I enjoyed sharing our work over the past year to make BIOE415 more inclusive and valuable for the students. Thank you to the Kern Family Foundation and AE3 for supporting this event!

Done grading for one class, time for a tea break then I’ll grade the 2nd class and then send notes for the stragglers to catch up.

Finished grading the late work, now I should be grading the final projects but I’m ready for a nap at 9am… I think I’m going to need a lot of tea today.

Vacancy alert - Learning Designer
My lovely colleagues at Heriot-Watt Online are looking for a Learning Designer to join their team. If you're looking for a new challenge (or know someone who is) this could be just the role.

Episode 12 of Accessagogy is out with a focus on areas of sensory bias that can be found in course, assignment, and activity design #HigherEd #CourseDesign https://anngagne.ca/podcast/episode-12-sensory-bias/

So I think I have my new course on Critical Thinking in the Age of AI plotted out. Would you take this course? #criticalthinking #thinking #think #education #coursedesign #course #design https://danmorrill.com/2023/06/01/problem-solving-skills-for-humans-in-the-age-of-ai/

Part 2 of the #SentientSyllabus course redesign project has been posted: Academic visions.

Before we actually look at contents and course details, we embark on a substantial visioning exercise. Thinking of academia in the future: how will the nature of work change, and what does that mean for the economy? How will our course materials respond? How will learning itself change? And how will our roles as instructors change?

We extrapolate from current trends to derive the contours of a reimagined academia. One of the interesting conclusions is that although we will be using more technology, that technology will become more transparent. That's a simple consequence of natural language instructions.

Finally we consider different pedagogical frameworks – it turns out that #KnowledgeBuilding has some interesting ideas to contribute, for example the concept of "Epistemic Artefacts" ...

It's getting interesting. Have a look

It's not quite right to say that #GenerativeAI will transform the #university. It is we who change it – as faculty, as learners, as administrators. In the Sentient Syllabus Project, we are setting out to establish best-practice for such change, and we start with a single course.

https://sentientsyllabus.substack.com/p/starting-over-1

We have written analysis about the impact of AI on #Academia for several months now, and we looked at questions of #authorship, #AcademicIntegrity, and personalized instruction. Now we start putting this into practice. This new post maps out a course redesign which will proceed in steps until early July. There are many new developments and visions to integrate with longstanding experience, but the July date will also give others time to build on the results for their own fall term courses.

Actually, we plan to work on two courses - one in #STEM and one in the #humanities.

Welcome to join us along the way.

🙂

What online learning environments do you & your students favour when it comes to mainly asynchronous teaching with some synchronous interaction (eg forums/discussion boards)?

Currently re-evaluating teaching & learning experiences with Moodle-based platforms, Blackboard, Canvas, Google classroom, Adobe ...

What works for you & why?

Thank you 🙏🏽
