Description

CALENDAR DESCRIPTION:

A faculty-mentored workshop in which MEd students in Educational Technology and Learning Design produce a major new technology-enhanced learning design for a setting that interests them, to demonstrate their mastery of principles, ideas and skills acquired in the core courses. Students will have scheduled meetings with their instructor throughout the term to report progress and seek advice.

COURSE DETAILS:

Whole-class meetings will take place in person at SFU Surrey on the following days:

Wednesday, May 13, 4:30pm to 8:30pm
Wednesday, May 20, 4:30pm to 8:30pm
Wednesday, July 29, 4:30pm to 8:30pm

In addition, each student will have four scheduled appointments with the course instructor (in person at SFU Surrey or online if preferred) througout the term, to share progress milestones and receive feedback.

COURSE-LEVEL EDUCATIONAL GOALS:

Develop a new, original learning design of substantial scope, which demonstrates transfer of learning from at least three core courses in the ETLD Masters program. 

Practice offering constructive critique of larger-scale learning designs with peers.

Registrar Notes:

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY: YOUR WORK, YOUR SUCCESS

SFU’s Academic Integrity web site http://www.sfu.ca/students/academicintegrity.html is filled with information on what is meant by academic dishonesty, where you can find resources to help with your studies and the consequences of cheating.  Check out the site for more information and videos that help explain the issues in plain English.

Each student is responsible for his or her conduct as it affects the University community.  Academic dishonesty, in whatever form, is ultimately destructive of the values of the University. Furthermore, it is unfair and discouraging to the majority of students who pursue their studies honestly. Scholarly integrity is required of all members of the University. http://www.sfu.ca/policies/gazette/student/s10-01.html
