Teacher is present and gives students whole-group lessons. The teacher is available for questions and may redirect attention. ]]> 2022-01-19 23:31:29 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001643869 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001644461 Class Dojo 
Kahoot!]]> 2022-01-19 23:31:58 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001644461 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001644535 PROS: Students do well when they work alongside a teacher who is attentive and present in a lesson. They need their questions answered and can be redirected using reinforcements.
CONS: Students need to be present for synchronous instruction and the lesson is not self-paced, so some teachers may instruct too quickly. ]]> 2022-01-19 23:32:03 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001644535 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001660885 Cognitivism states that, "Motivation and imagination are critical elements of learning that bridge environmental stimulus and student response" (Picciano, 2017). It now focuses on "adaptive and personalized learning applications" and "multiple steps in the learning process" (Picciano, 2017). ]]> 2022-01-19 23:52:24 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001660885 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001667813 Gagne's Nine Events of Instruction

CONS: Students may not be able to focus when learning synchronously and they may do better working on their own. Students may struggle working with partners or groups in Breakout Rooms.]]> 2022-01-20 00:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001670554 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001671928 Social constructivism includes the teacher "providing a social environment where learning is a series of practice experiences in which learners learn by doing, collaborating and reflecting with others" (Picciano, 2017). ]]> 2022-01-20 00:05:10 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001671928 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001679961 Active Learning Model
"Learners construct or build their own understanding". They are not simply recalling and retelling information; they are using prior knowledge to actively think and work through new problems (Cambridge International Education Teaching and Learning Team, n.d.).]]> 2022-01-20 00:13:46 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001679961 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001680732 Google Docs

Also, they can encourage students to work on projects with other peers.
CONS: Having students go back and forth from synchronous to asynchronous may be tedious. They may forget when to log back onto meetings or what their task is once they log off. ]]> 2022-01-20 00:16:16 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001682470 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001686863 Connectivism is a theory "driven by the dynamic of information flow" where students need to be provided with "experiences in navigating and recognizing oceans of constantly shifting and evolving information" (Picciano, 2017). ]]> 2022-01-20 00:20:38 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001686863 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001689767 Flipped Classroom Model 
Students can view videos posted on an LMS (such as Google Classroom) meaning they are gaining information from a device and completing an assignment alongside this resource. With the flipped classroom model, students are independent and responsible for their learning. ]]> 2022-01-20 00:23:37 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001689767 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001690122 Google Classroom

Students are in charge of their activities and can create their own schedules. 
CONS: Students need to be very driven and motivated to stay on-task and ensure everything is completed. If a student needs help, a teacher is not available making this environment a difficult one. ]]> 2022-01-20 00:26:23 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001692496 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001695931 Online Collaborative Learning, "focuses on the facilities of the Internet to provide learning environments that foster collaboration and knowledge building" (Picciano, 2017). ]]> 2022-01-20 00:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001695931 micaelarsm https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001700722 Active Learning Model
"Discussions need to be well-organized by instructors and they need to provide the necessary support, which allows students to achieve the advancement of ideas and construction of new knowledge" (Roe, J.

They need the core skills and foundation provided by a teacher during live sessions, yet also should know how to work on their own and be successful when doing so.
CONS: Students learning under both asynchronous and synchronous instruction may not get the sufficient help necessary when they meet with their teacher. Because of this, they may struggle when needing to complete work independently. ]]> 2022-01-20 00:39:36 UTC https://padlet.com/micaelarsm/tec541distancelearning/wish/2001706535
