10 Basics that Students Want from the LMS, and How to Help Faculty Implement Them - By Rhea Kelly | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it

At Ohio State University, students developed a list of 10 ways that instructors can use the learning management system more effectively — common-sense guidelines that aim to make courses more consistent, predictable, easier to navigate and generally more student-friendly. We spoke with Sam Craighead, associate director of professional learning in Ohio State's Office of Technology and Digital Innovation, about understanding the student perspective, supporting faculty with research-based practices, and the impact of instructional design on student success.

Authentic and Effective: Rescuing Video from Its Role as the Villain of Online Learning

Authentic and Effective: Rescuing Video from Its Role as the Villain of Online Learning | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it

After a year of emergency remote teaching, learners may feel like they never want to watch another recorded video lecture. "Get us back to in-person learning" is an entirely understandable battle cry for students and educators alike. Administrators might be hesitant to invest time and resources into educational video amid the many negative headlines around learning at a distance.Footnote1 However, few could deny the benefits discovered during this prolonged season of virtual teaching, learning, and working.

Given that the current climate continues to demand more and better online learning, we would be wise to hear from the research community that began asking questions long before the global pandemic.Footnote2 What do we already know about the use of video in educational environments, and how can we apply these lessons today when they are needed more than ever?
