"In this episode of the podcast I discuss how content curation can help you establish yourself as an online authority without writing your own content on a blog or website." A nice podcast by Ileane Smith for the weekend!

Jim Lerman's insight:
If you are just beginning your connection with Scoop.it, or even if you've been using Scoop.it for awhile, you are sure to pick up a pointer or two from Ms. Ileane Smith's podcast. She's soooo enthusiastic and quite complete in her coverage. Great job. And she's correct about being able to establish yourself as an authority without having to write a blog.

Abstract

Connection through emotions in an online environment takes some extra effort on everyone's part. For me, personal teaching stories help convey humor, empathy, along with the curriculum content. Having a lounge where folks can swap pictures of kids and pets might appeal to our brains limbic centers as well!

Developing trust and reciprocal awareness among virtual student teams is essential in effective group formation and performance - particularly in short-duration, high-stakes projects.

Abreena Tompkins, instruction specialist at Surry Community College, has developed a brain-based online course design model based on a meta-analysis of more than 300 articles. In this study, she distilled the following elements of brain-based course design: Low-risk, nonthreatening learning environment Challenging, real-life, authentic assessments Rhythms, patterns, and cycles Appropriate chunking or grouping Learning as orchestration rather than lecture or facilitation Appropriate level of novelty Appropriately timed breaks and learning periods Purposeful assessments Learning that addresses visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners Active processing with mental models The use of universal examples, analogies, and parallel processing Via Dennis T OConnor, Patty Ball, Louise Robinson-Lay Delete the scoop?

I think there is merit to what Ms. Ileanes says, however I still believe that a teacher needs to be a blogger.
