You can also find answers to the two tests from this I've posted questions from old tests at Questions 1 and Questions 2. I will just look through and check off the homeworks rather than giving them detailed grades, but it is important that you do them. Your grade will be based on homeworks (30%), Test 1 (30%), and Test 2 (40%).

Software choices will change each semester, depending on feedback from faculty and students at all IU campuses. IU plans to launch the pilot this fall with a limited number of trials then expand the program next spring. "The pilot program allows us to put our finger on the pulse of what's next in learning technologies, and assess the range of new tools, systems, and approaches that could benefit students for years to come." Evolving learning technologies afford new opportunities for deeper student engagement," said Morrone. "Now, more than ever before, the ability to engage students in their learning is critical to their success. The pilots are an opportunity to explore the technologies that can drive learning and engagement, according to Stacy Morrone, associate vice president for learning technologies at the university. The free, cloud-based platform was designed to complement learning management systems including Oncourse, Blackboard, Sakai, and Moodle, to name a few.Ĭanvas by Instructure aims to foster collaboration through the use of "Google Docs, Google Calendar, SMS, social media, and RSS." Based in the cloud, the platform features a number of functions-including grading rubrics, learning analytics, and groups among others-designed to support teaching and create dialogue between learners and educators. Jafari created the social networking site to provide educators and learners around the world, with shared interests in courses or subjects, to connect with one another. "Assessment of these technologies and others will enable our students and faculty to evaluate what combinations of institutional, cloud, open source and commercial tools can best serve IU’s future."ĬourseNetworking (or 'theCN') was designed by Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) professor Ali Jafari.
"IU is in a good position to offer trials of new technologies while we continue to support our heavily used Oncourse system," said Brad Wheeler, vice president of IT and CIO at Indiana University, in a prepared statement. The trials are part of an ongoing assessment project to evaluate the "currently available tools and systems that support teaching and learning," according to a statement released this week by the university. Indiana University will begin a two-year pilot program this fall with academic social networking site CourseNetworking and open source learning management system provider Instructure.
