Please Read
Each module will begin with a short overview that includes a video, objectives, a list of activities, and estimated completion time for each activity.
How This Course Is Structured
The modules were designed to be completed in the order that they are listed and should take approximately 60-90 minutes to complete. This is an estimate. It is very possible to complete them in less time. If you have any questions, please contact the course facilitator.
Layout
There are 5 modules and each module consists of 5 sections: Engage, Explain, Explore, Evaluate, and Elaborate. As you work through the course, you will learn what to expect in each section. See the syllabus for a detailed explanation of each section and module outlines.Helpful Hints
Look for lightbulbs throughout the course. The lightbulb explains how activities were created or what learning strategies are being used. For example, this section of the course was made using the Book tool found under the Resources tab in the activity menu.
Activity Completion Tracking
In the course settings, I have have opted to enable completion tracking. As a result, for certain activities, you will notice that a checkmark appears when you have either viewed or completed the activity. Lessons are marked complete once you have viewed the last page of the lesson. Quizzes are marked complete once you received a passing grade.
Under each page in the menu, you will see a progress monitor that tracks your completion of tasks within the module. Please don't feel pressured by those numbers. The system is designed to help online learners with time and task management. There is also an option to allow students to check off activities when they feel they are complete. You may want to turn activity completion tracking on or for your online course.
