RE: [Air-l] Development of Skills for teachers to offer online co urses
Research in this area is massive: the ERIC database would be a good starting place, also proquest education. The Educause website is handy too. A small contribution to the field of ideas, now a little dated, is my internet-based learning construction kit: http://lsn.curtin.edu.au/ibl/ Matt
UCLA has an extension program that offers Master's degrees in online education. A couple of yeas ago, their prospectus was massive - and it covered all the issues that I felt were germane to online education. The other place to check out is the University of Wisconsin-Madison distance learning unit. They offer a full prospectus of their course that again, cites many of the issues of interest to developing online instructional skills. Cheers, Denise ===== Denise N. Rall, PhD student, Env.

Skills are "nice", and then there is the big picture online course fit into, the impact on what Bill Readings calls, "The University in Ruins", and the redefinition of the relationship between the university/school, pedagogy, curriculum and the pedagogue. Before you start to work on an online course, if you haven't really carefully thought about/worked out issues of academic freedom and your IP rights (intellectual property) peruse these: http://www.caut.ca/english/bulletin/2004_apr/default.asp http://www.aaup.org/Legal/info%20outlines/legdl.htm http://www.firstmonday.dk/issues/issue3_1/noble/ Mary On 6/5/04 8:22 PM, "Matthew Allen" <M.Allen@exchange.curtin.edu.au> wrote:
