Page 8: EDUCAUSE 07

Students evaluate, summarize, and build resources

• Students locate informative and high quality resources to cover a topic

• Each saved as bookmark with appropriate tags

• For each bookmark, students summarize the resource and explain why it is high quality (Description field)

• Assessment: tags cover resources, summary is comprehensive and clear, good quality justification

• Extension: support for a student paper

Page 9: EDUCAUSE 07

Learner Centered ToolStudent activities to engage with

resources

• find resources which best summarize a topic

• find resources for and against an argument

• find a biased or misleading resource on a topic

• questions which require examination of resources

•Two assignments:

•Find 5 college websites with course catalog descriptions

•Find 1 good article in your experiential discipline and annotate

•Provided clearly written instructions with screenshots

•Easy with Course tool

Page 13: EDUCAUSE 07

Adult Hybrid Class

In spite of being good computer users, the adult students were slower to adopt it than graduate students

First assignment was slow, several questions, and they were pretty unsure of themselves

The second assignment was much better and was even turned in early.

GRCC – Plans for the future…

Leverage the power of Scholar to:1) Provide our Librarians with an easy way to bring in some

valuable resources directly into courses to share with students and faculty.

2) Encourage students to "add to" the body of knowledge in a course and share with each other.

3) Share resources and content collections with other universities and colleges on Scholar.

4) Provide students, faculty, and staff with the skills of academic social networking, bookmarking, and online tool usage with a key quality of the discernment of online resources.

5) Enhance faculty productivity, discipline searching/sharing, and course resource integration.

6) Improve collaboration for groups, teams, research groups, committees to share and categorize resources.

7) Increase awareness for individuals in using Scholar to easily store, access, collect, share, discover, tag, classify, and sort resources…
