*'''Teaching Courses using Open Educational Resources (OER)''' <br>
This course explores the finding, analyzing and using open (no cost) educational resources, including books, quizzes, multimedia and complete courses.  Each course member will be find, analyze and evaluate tools within their subject areas.  Learners will demonstrate how they would use OERs in a class which they teach regularly.
*'''Integrating Social Media with Coursework'''
Social media is popular and prevalent, but is it useful in a classroom setting?  Many faculty have taken advantage of social media but, as with any new tool, some might be doing so without a larger strategy in mind.  In this course we’ll look at what social media tools are available and how, using thoughtful course design, they can be applied as parts of thoughtful learning experiences.  Learners will get to look at some of the tools currently available and will be asked to create an assignment integrating social media.

'''TLT-C SEMINAR SCHEDULE''':
*'''Applying the Quality Matters Rubric'''  
[http://www.wpunj.edu/irt/faculty-workshops/index.html <span syle="color:#0000FF">Workshop schedule, AY 2016</span>]
This workshop explores the Quality Matters Rubric and provides a framework to improve the quality of online and blended courses. This is an essential workshop for faculty interested in applying the quality assurance strategies to their online courses. During this workshop participants have the opportunity to explore many standards of the Quality Matters rubric in depth, and to apply those standards to a demo course. 
<p>&nbsp;</p>
 
*'''Principles of Universal Design'''
This course is meant as a stepping off point for building online courses that are usable and accessible. The content is intended to inspire further exploration and advocacy for designing materials that benefit students and help them achieve their educational goals.


*'''Aligning Learning Objectives with Course Content'''
In this two week hybrid course we'll concentrate on the practice of aligning course and module learning objectives with various course components.  Alignment refers to the concept of a direct link between the learning objectives and the learning materials, activities, assessments and the course technology. Faculty should be able to map how each course element supports ultimately relates back to the course/module learning objectives. The design and practice of alignment is essential to student success, and we'll explore the process through a critique of alignment samples and the construction of a course map.


*'''Blended Learning Bootcamp'''
The Blended Learning Boot Camp is an introductory workshop for first-time blended learning course instructors intended to help faculty prepare a blended learning course. In this hybrid course faculty will explore, actively exchange and apply knowledge and ideas concerning blended learning course design and pedagogy. Faculty will develop a course designed for blended learning in this workshop.

Examples<br><br>
'''Copyright/fair use'''<br>
US Copyright Law governs the use of copyrighted material, and therefore, has implications on the type and the amount of material that may be kept on Reserve. The Library and IRT uphold the US Copyright laws and enjoy the exceptions allowed according to the Fair Use guidelines.  As stated in Section 107 of the US Copyright Act, educational, not-for-profit institutions are afforded special exemptions from copyright law. These exemptions, known as the Fair Use guidelines, pose questions for determining whether making a copy will be fair depending upon how the copied material will be used. Fair Use involves careful consideration of four factors and how they balance on a case-by-case basis.

The Teaching and Learning with Technology Curriculum

The TLT-C is an instructional resource for faculty consisting of two four-seminar tracks: Course Design and Teaching (or design and delivery).

 

TEACHING (Delivery)

  • Blackboard Intermediate: Enhancing your Traditional Course

The new offering is designed to provide faculty with intermediate-level skills in integrating Bb with face-to-face teaching. Participants will leave this workshop prepared to make effective use of Blackboard and other technologies in reshaping their traditional courses. Instructors new to Blackboard should contact department administrator Tony Krucinski (krucinskit@wpunj.edu or 973-720-2659) to schedule a one-on-one workshop with one of the Center for Teaching with Technology

  • Active Learning Institute

In this a day long workshop faculty will learn about implementing active learning strategies and evidence-based practice appropriate to the classroom no matter where teaching takes place: a large fixed-seat lecture bowl, an intimate seminar room, a virtual classroom online or a specially designed active learning. Workshop participants will design a teachable component for a course and have the opportunity for feedback on its implementation.

  • Teaching Courses using Open Educational Resources (OER)

This course explores the finding, analyzing and using open (no cost) educational resources, including books, quizzes, multimedia and complete courses. Each course member will be find, analyze and evaluate tools within their subject areas. Learners will demonstrate how they would use OERs in a class which they teach regularly.

  • Integrating Social Media with Coursework

Social media is popular and prevalent, but is it useful in a classroom setting? Many faculty have taken advantage of social media but, as with any new tool, some might be doing so without a larger strategy in mind. In this course we’ll look at what social media tools are available and how, using thoughtful course design, they can be applied as parts of thoughtful learning experiences. Learners will get to look at some of the tools currently available and will be asked to create an assignment integrating social media.

 

COURSE DESIGN

  • Applying the Quality Matters Rubric

This workshop explores the Quality Matters Rubric and provides a framework to improve the quality of online and blended courses. This is an essential workshop for faculty interested in applying the quality assurance strategies to their online courses. During this workshop participants have the opportunity to explore many standards of the Quality Matters rubric in depth, and to apply those standards to a demo course.

  • Principles of Universal Design

This course is meant as a stepping off point for building online courses that are usable and accessible. The content is intended to inspire further exploration and advocacy for designing materials that benefit students and help them achieve their educational goals.

  • Aligning Learning Objectives with Course Content

In this two week hybrid course we'll concentrate on the practice of aligning course and module learning objectives with various course components. Alignment refers to the concept of a direct link between the learning objectives and the learning materials, activities, assessments and the course technology. Faculty should be able to map how each course element supports ultimately relates back to the course/module learning objectives. The design and practice of alignment is essential to student success, and we'll explore the process through a critique of alignment samples and the construction of a course map.

  • Blended Learning Bootcamp

The Blended Learning Boot Camp is an introductory workshop for first-time blended learning course instructors intended to help faculty prepare a blended learning course. In this hybrid course faculty will explore, actively exchange and apply knowledge and ideas concerning blended learning course design and pedagogy. Faculty will develop a course designed for blended learning in this workshop.

Assessment Strategies

Avoiding plagiarism

According to the Undergraduate Catalog of William Paterson University, it defines plagiarism as "the copying from a book, article, notebook, video, or other source material, whether published or unpublished, without proper credit through the use of quotation marks, footnotes, and other customary means of identifying sources, or passing off as one's own the ideas, words, writings, programs, and experiments of another, whether or not such actions are intentional or unintentional."

Turnitin

Turnitin (Tii) is an Internet-based plagiarism-prevention service that allows faculty compare student papers with a bank of over 150 million archived student papers and close to 100,000 journals, periodicals and books.
Now integrated with Blackboard (Bb) it is a powerful tool for uncovering assignments borrowed all in part from other existing sources. Instructors who create a Tii assignments in Blackboard will receive a report gauging the overall level of originality for each paper that highlights instances of copied text as well as the original source of the material.
