2:40 - 3:20 PM Concurrent Session I
Achieving a Successful Online STEM Class
Presenters: Christy Sue Langley, Julie Roy, and Andrea Leonard
This group of presenters discusses the tools and techniques to retain different types of audiences in the online classroom by sharing targeted communication strategies and assessment techniques.
Engagement Leads to Retention
Presenter: Kathleen Wilson
Retention is important for 亚洲自慰视频s and faculty. 亚洲自慰视频 investments are financial and personal goals. Faculty investments are time, passion, and financial. 亚洲自慰视频s that feel connected, are engaged and are experiencing success, will likely continue in their program. RN-BSN 亚洲自慰视频s engage with their online courses through various means with an attrition rate of about 2%.
3:30 - 4:15 PM Concurrent Session II
Engaging Devices: An Interactive 亚洲自慰视频 Perspective
Presenters: Ami Stearns, Sheri Lazar, Elizabeth Bobo, and Gina Sorci
Session presenters will discuss the use of Moodle, mobile devices, and online techniques to create an interactive learning environment with 亚洲自慰视频 engagement embedded in the course design.
Translation of Online Teaching Technology to Face-to-Face Teaching
Presenter: Whitney Storey
The online teaching environment鈥檚 use of technology as a tool to engage 亚洲自慰视频s and its focus on the online learning environment not only leads to greater retention in the online classroom, but these same concepts and tools can easily transition to a face-to-face learning environment. The use of these tools in a face-to-face class has the ability to create a sense of community between the 亚洲自慰视频s and the 亚洲自慰视频s and instructor, which can lead to greater commitment to the course and course materials.
Assessing 亚洲自慰视频 Performance through a Capstone Project
Presenters: Kathleen Wilson and Debra White
The online Registered Nurse to Bachelor of Science in Nursing capstone project integrates knowledge gleaned from core courses into a final project and provides the 亚洲自慰视频 with a self-directed learning opportunity. The capstone project represents a bridge between the 亚洲自慰视频鈥檚 education and a very personal part of their professional world, their own work setting (Goldstein & Fernald, 2009). Several 亚洲自慰视频s have been successful in having their project accepted by their healthcare facility and have been invited to participate in the implementation, evaluation, and dissemination processes.
Online Dual Enrollment College Algebra and Retention
Presenters: Mary Lou Jumonville and Amanda Doyle
Over the past three years, more than 300 area high school 亚洲自慰视频s have enrolled in online College Algebra courses at our 亚洲自慰视频. Who are these 亚洲自慰视频s and how successful are they in this course? This presentation will address those questions.
