1. Encourages Contact Between Students and Faculty Meaning Desire 2 Learn Tools Other Tools Frequent student-faculty contact in and out of classes is the most important factor in student motivation and involvement. Faculty concern helps students get through times and keep on working. Knowing a few faculty members well enhances students' intellectual commitment and encourages them to think about their own values and future plans. • Email • News (Announcement) • Discussion Board • Chat • Instant messaging: Skype • Web conferencing: Dimdim • Social network: Facebook, Linked.

2. Develops Reciprocity and Cooperation Among Students Meaning Desire 2 Learn Tools Other Tools Learning is enhanced when it is more like a team effort than a solo race. Good learning, like good work, is collaborative and social, not competitive and isolated. Working with others often increases involvement in learning. Sharing one’s ideas and responding to others’ improves thinking and deepens understanding. • Groups • Wiki • Blog • Google Docs • Voicethread

3. Encourages Active Learning Meaning Desire 2 Learn Tools Learning is not a spectator sport. Students do not learn much just sitting in classes listening to teachers, memorizing prepackaged assignments, and spitting out answers. They must talk about what they are learning, write reflectively about it, relate it to past experiences, and apply it to their daily lives. They must make what they learn part of themselves. • Discussion Board Strategies: Other Tools • Instructional scaffolding • Create assignments that require students to react to real life scenarios, etc. • Orchestrate interactive group projects • Use the Self-Tests for active review of materials • Vary the choice of ways students can complete assignment

In getting started, students need help in assessing their existing knowledge and competence. Then, in classes, students need frequent opportunities to perform and receive feedback on their performance. At various points during college, and at its end, students need chances to reflect on what they have learned, what they still need to know, and how they might assess themselves. • Dropbox Other Tools • Quiz Strategies: • Let students know what type of feedback to expect from you & how often it will be provided • Post the grading schedule • Publish “office hours” on the course website • Hold “office hours” by video-conferencing, email, phone, etc.

5. Emphasizes Time on Task Meaning Desire 2 Learn Tools Time plus energy equals learning. Learning to use one’s time well is critical for students and professionals alike. Allocating realistic amounts of time means effective learning for students and effective teaching for faculty. • Content (Calendar) • Schedule • Release Conditions • Timed Quiz and Dropbox Other Tools

6. Communicates High Expectations Meaning Desire 2 Learn Tools Expect more and you will get it. High expectations are important for everyone — for the poorly prepared, for those unwilling to exert themselves, and for the bright and well motivated. Expecting students to perform well becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. • Content area (Syllabus, Other Tools activity instructions) • Statistics (Quiz) Strategies: • Provide examples of expected quality of work • Release statistics along with grades, so that students can see how they are performing as compared to the rest of the class (stats can give the mean grade and/or the frequencies). • Use the "Release Conditions" feature to release course info only as students achieve a certain level of success on a test.

7. Respects Diverse Talents and Ways of Learning Meaning Desire 2 Learn Tools Other Tools Many roads lead to learning. • Content area • E-learning authoring Different students bring and screencast software : • Discussion different talents and styles Adobe Captivate, to college.
