Author: Markus PeterPublisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3751981195

Pages : 62
Book Description
Many tutorials and online courses transfer knowledge on interesting and important topics. Often the creators are indeed experts in their field but have no idea of how knowledge is transferred properly, and which aspects need to be considered when creating good online media. The result is often devastating. Bounce rates of up to 90% are the norm on many courses. Actual interesting content is not perceived because the form of presentation puts prospects to flight. In this book the experienced adult educator and online tutor, Markus Peter, presents the basics of knowledge transfer and provides the reader with tools for creating more professional and more attractive course content. The results are impressive: Over 50% more feedback, and better feedback for courses that have implemented the approach, is a convincing argument.

Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
The Survey of Best Practices in Developing Online Information Literacy Tutorials is a benchmarking report for online tutorial development, presenting a wealth of information on the practices involved in and the cost of developing online information literacy tutorials. The 285-page report also looks at how tutorials are marketed and accessed, and at popular access points such as Facebook, the library website and others, as well as how tutorials are used in for-credit classes and more ad-hoc use. The study looks at how tutorial designers are trained, and at how they inter-relate to non-library departments and other departments of the library. The study also looks at the use of tutorials of other colleges and vendor-produced tutorials, and at efforts to evaluate how students use tutorials, and how colleges should make decisions on what kinds of tutorials to produce and how to best produce them. The questionnaire for the report was largely developed by librarians at the University of Arizona libraries.

Make It Stick
Author: Peter C. BrownPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674729013
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
To most of us, learning something "the hard way" implies wasted time and effort. Good teaching, we believe, should be creatively tailored to the different learning styles of students and should use strategies that make learning easier. Make It Stick turns fashionable ideas like these on their head. Drawing on recent discoveries in cognitive psychology and other disciplines, the authors offer concrete techniques for becoming more productive learners. Memory plays a central role in our ability to carry out complex cognitive tasks, such as applying knowledge to problems never before encountered and drawing inferences from facts already known. New insights into how memory is encoded, consolidated, and later retrieved have led to a better understanding of how we learn. Grappling with the impediments that make learning challenging leads both to more complex mastery and better retention of what was learned. Many common study habits and practice routines turn out to be counterproductive. Underlining and highlighting, rereading, cramming, and single-minded repetition of new skills create the illusion of mastery, but gains fade quickly. More complex and durable learning come from self-testing, introducing certain difficulties in practice, waiting to re-study new material until a little forgetting has set in, and interleaving the practice of one skill or topic with another. Speaking most urgently to students, teachers, trainers, and athletes, Make It Stick will appeal to all those interested in the challenge of lifelong learning and self-improvement.
Bite Sized Learning: Improving Staff Development for Busy Learners

Book Description
This book is all about teaching more effectively using technology. It's about a new way to structure online learning which results in more engagement, higher completion rates and greater learner satisfaction. That, of course, leads to more action and more success.The best part is that the model also makes it easier for teachers. Learning is broken down, action based, learner focussed, and easier to create as a result.This model applies to working learners in all contexts, such as small business, education, corporations or charities. It applies particularly well to adult learners, but I believe it could also be very effective in schools and collges.If you want to create online courses which incite more action, success and satisfaction, then the Bite Sized Learning model is for you.
