ETC655: Session Ended

Dear ETC655 Students,   The Spring 2022 2nd session has ended. I would like to offer my congratulations and felicitations for your achievement of completing your ETC degree. May you live well and benefit from your education.   It has been an incredible experience in working with you.  I hope you have completed all course activities.  With strikingly different course design, it was a challenging session for all of us. I hope ETC655 has engaged you in an effective and comprehensive learning process that has advanced all your three learning domains, cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills), and affective (values), for online learning teaching and design. Instructor-student and student-student relationships lie at the heart of humanizing, serving as the connective tissue between students, engagement, and rigor. And I think we accomplished it.   I hope you are conversant with the topics of Connectivism and ONLE. After the class, I encourage...

ETC655: Gamify the course evaluations

Image
Dear ETC655 students, If you recall, we made an announcement of gamifying our course evaluations. This is an example of how we could gamify instructional activities through community building.  Every student needs to take part to achieve the goal. In the past, we had one class that did not reach the highest goal only. I know you may not need the extra credits to earn an A, but let's strengthen our learning community further through this activity. I know we could do it because all of you are a community of learners. How are we doing so far? YES. We have four completions already. Instructions: You had the experience of earning the extra point by completing the course evaluation in ETC645.  In ETC655, we will do the same; however, we will gamify ETC655 course evaluation later in the course. On top of 1 bonus point, if the return rate reaches  85% , ALL students receive an additional  0.125  point, even the ones not participating yet...
