Presentations / Blogs


Copyright in Online courses

NETS-T: Standard 4a: Advocate, model, and teach safe, legal, and ethical use of digital information and technology, including respect for copyright, intellectual property, and the appropriate documentation of sources.

The following audio/visual presentation was created in order to assist teachers in researching, discovering and attributing digital content for use in online courses. The presentation covers copyright concerns as well as the correct citation and documentation of digital sources, and is aimed at new online faculty embarking on their first journey in creating a legally and ethically sound web-based course.

Your PowerPoint Sucks! Blog

NETS-T: Standard 5c: Evaluate and reflect on current research and professional practice on a regular basis to make effective use of existing and emerging digital tools and resources in support of student learning.

I created this blog in order to help faculty refine and improve (and make less sucky) their PowerPoint presentations in order to teach more effectively. Included are recommended best practices for distributing information in multimedia presentations, along with some funny, informative digital videos on design and links to various tools and resources.

Best Practices for Student Engagement

NETS-T: Standard 5a: Participate in local and global learning communities to explore creative applications of technology to improve student learning

NETS-T: Standard 5d: Contribute to the effectiveness, vitality, and self-renewal of the teaching profession and of their school and community.

This artifact was created in MS PowerPoint and is a visual accompaniment to my presentation on Best Practices for Student Engagement, a presentation I have given for college departments and am scheduled to present at the Student Success conference in 2014.

This digital artifact was created as part of an "Internet for Educators" course and contains detailed blog posts on copyright, creative commons, the public domain and their impact on online education. More importantly, the resources page within this blog not only lists, but comments and overviews of further resources related to the ethical use of digital information; including Course Management Systems, Creative Commons collections, social networking and mobile learning resources.
