 Today is an exercise in search optimization.  I've been trying different search ideas and re-ordering the words to get at the essence of what I'm trying to find.  "Definition of Artificial Intelligence" and "Artificial Intelligence Definition" are two COMPLETELY different search result.  


Now, I'm searching "artificial intelligence in k-12 education" as I'm finishing up my committee question for quals and finding just a few more references to support the claims in my paper.  

I spent a good part of the afternoon looking into JSTOR, ERIC, Google Scholar, etc and determining how to evaluate a journal tier beyond whether it is peer reviewed and it's a fine line.  It looks like SJR is a good resource for determined Q1 or Q2 journals so I'm trying to focus on Tier one and two.

Bring on the CSS! And Assessment

  Bring on the CSS! Okay, that’s much more confident than I feel, though I am not impressed with my basic and boring webpage so far, so I’m excited to add some color and style, though I still can’t “see” how this will pan out in the end. I’m looking forward to exploring templates because that will surely help me to see the final project a bit more clearly.   On another note, assessment is hard. Bloom and I spent some time together today, discussing his taxonomy. Well, really I did the talking (and griping and complaining about how my great ideas were NOT higher order) and he just kept sending me the same pyramid that’s been around for years. That guy is consistent if nothing else.   I know WHAT I want people to get from my course, but having them prove it is hard – it's been a minute since I’ve worked on the alignment piece and it’s SO important, but also doesn’t always end where I think it will. Great activities mean nothing if learners don’t do more than regur...

Week 8 - Learner Centered Instruction - Not just for Distance Learning

 Over the past few years, all students in the US and throughout most of the world have had experience learning in a virtual environment they were unfamiliar with previously.  Though this was new to most K12 students, this wasn't a new concept, and distance learning has been around for years, first with mail order options for learners, and now with Zoom and other virtual environments.   In 1995, Wagner and McCombs wrote a paper, "Learner Centered Psychological Principles in Practice: Designs for Distance Education," encouraging ALL instructors to use the tools that many distance learning instructors used to increase student engagement in their courses.  They noted that it was common belief that learner-centered instruction was necessary for distance education and that the tools and best practices related to it were used primarily in that arena.   Many of the learning principles noted in this article stood the test of time and become essential during the...
