Flipped Classroom Tools: Camtasia, Powerpoint and Mediasite<\/h3>\n
The flipped classroom model has been a popular topic in both the higher education and popular press. In this model of teaching, students review lecture materials outside of class time, usually short videos, and spend classroom time on more interactive tasks. In this workshop we’ll review the basic concepts of the flipped classroom model, some best practices, and some of the tools that faculty have used to create flipped classroom materials.<\/p>\n

Course Web Sites: Sakai, Google Sites and pages.hmc.edu<\/h3>\n
CIS provides several different ways to create course web sites. For those who want a completely out of the box solution Sakai may be the best choice. Most faculty are already familiar with Sakai, so we’ll show a few tricks and tips for making Sakai work better for you as a course web site.\u00a0Google Sites is a solution for those who want to customize their course web sites, but don’t want to have to write HTML code. For the more technically inclined, CIS also has a brand new way to create web sites on a site called pages.hmc.edu. Pages.hmc.edu is the replacement for www2.hmc.edu, www3.hmc.edu and www4.hmc.edu, which are all slated for retirement. Like www4.hmc.edu, pages.hmc.edu uses a directory in your home directory on the Windows file server to host web pages.<\/p>\n

Diving Deep Workshops<\/h2>\nSakai Lessons Tool<\/h3>\n
The Sakai Lessons tool is relatively new to our instance of Sakai, and uses\u00a0a very different paradigm from most other Sakai tools. Lessons allows you to create pages that link to other Sakai tools such as quizzes, assignments, resource items, or forum topics. Usage scenarios include creating an interactive syllabus or lesson plan. You can create multiple pages that appear in the list of tools on the left or use one page to link to multiple subpages. Inserting images or other multimedia files allow you to create more visually interesting pages.<\/p>\n

Sakai Gradebook2 Tool<\/h3>\n
Gradebook2 is an alternative to the familiar Gradebook tool in Sakai. It was developed at UC Davis and has a number of features not available in Gradebook including support for extra credit. It has a spreadsheet-like user interface, making it easy to enter grades for multiple students at once. It also provides histograms and the ability to choose what information to display to students. If you’ve tried the regular Gradebook tool and didn’t like it, Gradebook2 may be more to your liking.<\/p>\n

My Mediasite Part 1: Folder and Content Management<\/h3>\n
My Mediasite is one of the more advanced tools available through our Mediasite lecture capture system. Faculty and staff with a My Mediasite account can create and upload their own multimedia materials and organize them as they wish. Video content can be created and uploaded using personal tools such as smartphones and laptops rather than with the Mediasite recorders used in our traditional lecture capture system.<\/p>\n
