Scholar: Collaboration and Communication (Which Tools do I Use?)
(Academic)
Welcome to Scholar, a robust learning and collaboration system which offers tools for teaching and learning, research, collaboration, and assessment/accreditation projects. Scholar Course sites are designed to facilitate collaboration and communication. Users can effectively discuss ideas, exchange and share files, and present web content. As a course tool, online forums for discussion, tests, quizzes, and assignments, coupled with the aforementioned collaboration tools, make it a powerful tool for teaching and learning. This workshop is focused on the instructor looking to engage students in the ownership of their learning. This workshop provides instructional strategies and activities using tools within Scholar to help you engage and to encourage student discussion and dialog. Examples will be demonstrated and we will have the opportunity to discuss other possible ways to provide students with "ownership" in their learning. Charts and handouts explaining each of the communication and collaboration tools will be provided and designed to help you select the best tool for the intended outcome. Specific tools covered in this workshop may include: Announcements, Calendar, Email Archive, Forums, Blog, Wiki, Citations, Resources, Podcasts and/or Chat Room.
