CourseOutcomesandCourseDeliverablesOnce you have completed this course, you will have:
Generated a public facing blog which you can use for professional and/or personal goals;
Participated in multiple ongoing threads and conversations; Understood the mechanics of maintaining a blog and working with multiple users on a
blog;
Understood the elements of contributing in an online blogging community;
Authored, organized, and revised multiple posts on a theme;
Read, responded to, and evaluated six scholarly articles;
Identified, evaluated, and shared over 20 online resources and tools;
Developed a personal understanding of three themes related to specific learner
populations and learning media and connected them to your working environment.
Additionally, you will have completed the following deliverables that comprise your grade:
TheDeliverables
Deliverables in this course fall in to three categories. First, there are writing responses to readings
and videos you watched. The goal is to think about and integrate some of the ideas you are
exposed to in to your own experience and consider how this information may impact your
teaching, reading, writing, personal, and professional lives. The second category is resource
sharing. While it is easy to discuss and think about the theory or potentials of collaboration or
public domain video, it is more useful to go out and find resources that you or others can use in
your classroom(s), work environments, or professional development. A major goal of this course
is not to just help increase your awareness of, but your familiarity with internet resources. The
third category of deliverable is the Journal Review. This is a more formal document. While we
are not doing full blown academic literature reviews or analyses in this class, we are working
with academic articles/literature and linking them to our own work. It is important to becomefamiliar with the processes vital to locating material, evaluating it, responding to it, and then
integrating the core concepts in, to, or with your work. During this class, you will author six
journal reviews that have specific requirements. Please pay attention to those requirements.

AbouttheDeliverablesWhy is there so much emphasis on writing?Writing is an essential tool for communicating. While multimedia have continued to
grow in importance, virtually all policy, hiring, and funding decisions are made viaalphabetic text on paper products: hard copies of writing. Writing is an important and
integral tool for communicating in your future role as technological evangelist, tech-usingteacher, instructional designer, or independent author, consultant, and media creator.
The MS:EdIT program also requires some significant writing performances in order to
complete the program. You will eitherwrite a thesis, write a final project, create anonline portfolio that features yourwriting, orwrite comprehensive exams. No matter
how you look at it, you will do a lot ofwriting.
CourseManagement
ClassAssignmentsandExpectations;NoLateWorkAcceptedComplete assigned readings and explore relevant resources weekly and be prepared toactively write, post, and respond to issues raised in these readings. Simply cranking out a
single draft or posting thoughts off of the top of your head is notbest practice, nor will itearn you the grade that you are capable of earning. Brainstorm, draft, revise, pause,
revise, and THEN post. The blog posts and comments in this class are not meant to be
final drafts, but they are not meant to be first drafts either. All of your posted, publicwriting should be thoughtful and decently organized content that addresses the promptand/or readings and shows respect for the reader and author.
All assignments are due on the date listed. NO EXCEPTIONS. Late work is NOT
accepted. Why? If you show up late for an interview a day late, if you submit yourcontracted publication a week late, or if you go to see the World Cup a month late you

will face the same result: people will be confused, upset, or unwilling to work with you.Deadlines exist for a reason.
TechnologyProblems
Technology is NOT an excuse to not meet your deadlines. You should always havebackup, cloud based or thumb drive or what have you. Invariably, other people aroundyou will or should have computers. As an educational technologist in training, it is your
responsibility and duty to determine multiple workarounds and solutions in case things gobad or get weird. Why? Technology always does weird stuff at some of the worst times.
For example, I wrote part of this syllabus on a borrowed computer. Im storing files inGmail and DropBox and several hard drives. I know that if the university network goes
down (which it did last Sunday) that I can go to Koyotes off campus to get WiFi. Backup plans, data storage, and working devices are all important.
If you literally live in the Alaskan Bush, like some of our students do, or if there is only
one hard line for data in/out of your area, let me know at the start of the term. Alertingme to potential problems ahead of time makes it much easier on all of us if an event
occurs.
LateWork,FamilyEmergencies,Illness,andOtherProblems
If you think there is going to be a problem meeting a due date or deadline, please contactme immediately. Keeping me in the dark does not help either one of us. Letting me
knowbriefly, efficiently, and without too many personal detailsthat your life has afew bumps will go a long way in relieving stress for all of us.
If you have a family emergency, simply email me that with estimated date(s) and time(s)
this will impact you and when you think life will become normal again. I do not need nor
want doctors notes, detailed descriptions, nor epic sagas; your personal lives are yourownif there is a crisis significant enough to warrant telling me about it, all I need toknow is that things are bumpy. Your attention is best spent on the situation and handling
it the best that you can.
The key to minimizing stress and maximizing your performance during difficult
times is clear, effective communication.

OnlineDiscussions
Students are expected to do scheduled readings, respond to prompts by the posted date
and time, and then respond to other students and the instructor. Appropriate responsesmake a substantial contribution to the discussion. Do not simply reply, I like that, good
job. Rather, add new ideas of your own, cite views from readings, comment on why youfind a particular idea intriguing, or lead us to related articles.
GuidelinesforaSuccessfulOnlineCourseModified from Palloff, R. & Pratt, K. (2007). Building Online Learning Communities:
Effective Strategies for the Virtual Classroom. Jossey-Bass:San Francisco, CA.
1. This is not a self-paced course. It is designed on a weekly format and to besuccessful you will need to login to check the course several times each week.
2. Discussions require frequent checking and participation. Check often. Staycurrent and up-to-date. Replies posted late will not become a part of thediscussion and will likely be missed by other participants. Discussions cannot be
caught-up once others have moved on. Monitor discussions for responses toyour own posts and be prepared to post follow-up messages.
3. If possible, complete readings near the beginning of the week so that you havetime to think about them and draw from them as you complete assignments and/ordiscussions for the week.
4. Have contingency plans for computer problems. Become familiar with theInternet services at your public library. Seek out friends or family members whowill let you use their Internet services in the case yours crashes. Do not expect to
be able to catch up after missing two or more weeks of class.
5. Online learning happens in real time. As with on-campus classes, you will need tojuggle your commitments even when personal or work activities encroach on your
study time. Your success depends upon your ability to master course content atthe same time you deal with other life challenges. If an unforeseen event occurs
and work cannot be submitted on time, get yourself back on track as soon aspossible. Contact me immediately if you are having problems. I am understanding
and will work with you, but it is difficult to help when students fall far behind.

6. Because this is an online class, your schedule can be quite flexible. This does not
mean, however, that there is less work than in a 3-credit face-to-face class.Graduate courses at WOU carry an expectation of 4 hours of homework for every
1 hour in class. This equates to 15 hours/week for a 3-credit course. While this
will vary from week to week and there will certainly be light weeks, please beprepared to schedule your time to manage weeks when there is a heavy workload.I will do my best to make this manageable, and I think you will find our readings
and assignments to be interesting and relevant.

Modified from Palloff, R. & Pratt, K. (2007). Building Online Learning Communities:

1. I understand the uncertainties of online communication. When you email me, Iwill respond within 48 hours (usually much faster). If you send me something, I
will respond with a Got it email. If you do not hear from me, check to makesure I received it. (Assignments submitted on Moodle should show you when they
have been posted successfully).
2. Open communication and instructor availability are critical to the success of anonline course. Email me any time you have questions. This is the fastest way to
reach me. If you need to talk by phone, my number is 503-838-8728. Please emailme to let me know you are trying to reach me by phone and I will arrange an
appointment to talk.
3. Please email me anytime you are confused or unclear on instructions. I willrespond quickly. If your question would be of interest to others in the class, I will
post my responses on our course announcements page.
4. Although I may be traveling for conferences a few times during the term, I willcontinue to check our class regularly. If for any reason I will be unable to connect,
I will post a message to let you know.
5. I will do my best to respond to assignments with feedback within a week. BecauseI have two other online classes, I may have conflicts that slow this down. Please
know that I will do my best to provide feedback as quickly as possible.
PlagiarismPolicy
Much of the work we do in this class involves using online electronic texts andimages as a resource. If you use material you have found online, you are expected to
acknowledge the source and, in the case of text, paraphrase as appropriate. If you useanother writers words, you must put those words in quotation marks (or use block
quote formatting) and formally cite where they came from. If you cut and paste text

or any other material without crediting your source, you are plagiarizing. Plagiarismis unethical. If discovered, intentional plagiarists fail.

Remember:Digital Citizenship should be practiced regularly. Whether you do bursts offour hours at once or several times a week for 30 minutes, you need to participate and
contribute in a meaningful way each week.
AssignmentsWriting
Key to all the writing assignments is several simple principles. Simple does not meaneasy. Simple does not mean stupid. Simple does not mean you should dismiss it. (Hint: A
rapid way to improve your writing is to acquire and read Rudolf Fleschs The Art ofReadable Writing, Fleschs The Art of Plain Talk, or Kelsch & Kelschs Writing
Effectively: A Practical Guide.)1. Respect your reader.
a. Use accessible academic English and clear writing.b. Assume they are intelligent, inquisitive, and critical thinkers like you.
c. Be engaging, i.e. do not bore us.2. Support your claims.a. Respect your reader by showing roughly where the information came
from.
b. Respect your reader by summarizing the work for themdont make thereader work through the quotes that you should work through.
3. Have something to say. Make a point and connect the dots.a. All of this content is interesting, and it all addresses multiple issues in
which most of the public is concerned and invested. This is an easyconversation to join, and it is a conversation to which you can make a
valuable contribution. This means thinking and drafting before you
writebe very clear about what you want to say. Say it well when you sayit. Make a point, and then move on to your next point. Before you close,remember to connect all of the dots. Do not assume your reader will get
it just because it seems obvious to you. Instead, your post, your writing,your argument should make the point so obvious that the reader is led to it.
Assignments:
Below you will find three different assignment sheets. The first assignment
sheet/worksheet is for the first two weeks of class. The second assignmentsheet/worksheet focuses on the core of the classthe middle three weeks. The third
assignment sheet describes the two documents you will turn in at the end of the summerterm.

you, your theme for the week, and your students.
^JournalReviews:Each week review one practice-centered, practical journal article and one
theoretical or philosophical journal article; these should come from peer
reviewed scholarly journals. The goal is to balance practice and theory in a
specific area that interest you rather than having you read general theory or
general practice. I want you to gain depth and breadth on specific kinds and
applications of educational technology that are directly relevant to your
experience and field.
Each Review Should:o Provide article title, author, journal, and publication date;o Indicate which NETS standards are addressed;o Be 300-500 words long and discuss how this resource is useful,

first week of class. If you prepare, most things will likely go smoothly. If you do notprepare, if you assume, then you risk doom.
PrivacyAll of our activities online are tracked, searched, documented, recorded, and harvested. It
is important to understand that tracking occurs. As Educational Technologists, this is thereality we faceand we work in environments where numerous vested and anonymous
parties harvest data.
Since all of your blogs and digital citizenship activities must be posted to the course blogfor this class, I attempt to mitigate the impact of this tracking on our professional lives.
To protect your identities, you, students/users, are only referred to by your first names. Ifyou wish to use your last name, that is your choice. However, I will not enforce such a
policy.
If you have further concerns about your privacy or privacy related issues, please let meknow.
