Roger Sorensen WebCT offers self-test and quiz tools for assessing student comprehension, either graded or not. Additionally, WebCT can be used to administer surveys for the course. The web can be a useful tool for reducing the need for paper-based assignments. Using work done in the Biology department as a model, this workshop will inform you how to use web-based forms to deliver assignments to students. The completed homework arrives in your e-mail for grading.
Students subsequently receive their graded work by return e-mail.
Learn about the different types of resources available electronically and how to evaluate the reliability of the data they contain. Join us for a discussion of peer review materials, personal Web pages, and everything in between. In this meeting we will set the agenda for issues the group would like to see addressed. This session will explore means by which public folders can be used by a group to collaboratively work on posted materials, such as assignments or documents. Included will be a discussion of electronic annotation tools in MS Word which can be used for sharing comments within a paper.
