Hybrid Learning
Madison College Faculty share ideas for online hybrid course time:
Kate Grovergrys
The online instruction will include, but not be limited to, the following:
- Video tutorials from the textbook website
- Pair and group work via Blackboard, email, Skype, etc.
- Powerpoint presentations enhanced with Adobe Connect (presented on Blackboard)
- Livescribe presentations (using magic pen)
George Alexander
The online component includes:
- Regularly weekly work on a web-based math learning software system. Students purchase a user license instead of a traditional textbook.
- Frequent assessments, individualized lesson plans, and quizzes, all based on what each already knows, is ready to learn, and yet needs to master from the course content.
- Work that focuses on skill-building and topic mastery.
- Required discussion board activity via shared exercise questions and solutions.
Karena Curtis
I replace face to face time with an online portion that consists of:
- Lectures
- Video lectures
- Homework and quizzes
- Discussion forums
- Projects, such as an internet project investigating math inside their area of interest. They have to post this project to either a WIKI or forum. Other students respond to the post with questions or comments (rubric on quality responses provided).
Dana Carpenter
The online component includes:
- Adobe Connect narrated presentations
- Tutorials and resources for library research as part of final project.
- Discussion board postings based on virtual tours, management interviews, and ethics applications.
- Adobe connect and Skype meetings
- Demonstration problems and online homework.
- Cost volume profit analysis projects
- Online quizzes and exams and feedback
- Electronic Pair work on project or individual work on project (company financial statement analysis)
Tina Rettler
Out of class and online time is spent in a variety of ways, which might include, but are not limited to the following:
- Reading articles
- Posting and responding to the discussion board
- Watching videos
- Listening to podcasts
- Searching the web and sharing resources
- Interacting via various Web 2.0 tools
- Writing reflections and journals
- Communicating via Skype
- Contributing to group journals and WIKIs,
- Using curriculum design related software.
