This is a short toolkit discussing constructivism. Its founders, history, uses, and advantages and disadvantages are all discussed. Several videos and a knowledge check are included. All sources are listed at the end of the toolkit.
The (Advanced Instructional Design) course provides students with the knowledge and skills for designing and facilitating highly contextualized, engaging, and meaningful learning experiences based on the principles of constructivism, situated cognition, and connectivism. Readings expose students to a range of epistemological and theoretical perspectives as evidenced by instructional design literature and applications.The focus is on grounded or theory-based design. The course emphasizes the design of online or technology-supported learning environments (TSLEs) using a variety of pedagogical models such as situated learning, anchored instruction, problem-based learning, cognitive apprenticeship, and cognitive flexibility hypertext.
It is a CLE presentation on the flight simulations. It includes a comparison between an example of an objectivist learning environment and a CLE on flight simulation
The CLE presentation presents theoretical principles and instructional characteristics of Constructivist Learning Environments (CLEs), contrast these to the theoretical principles and instructional characteristics of Objectivist Learning Environments (OLEs), share an example of a CLE that is technology supported , and critique the extent to which the selected CLE example embodies the principles of constructivism.

This OER course “Digital Course Accessibility for Educators” was developed thanks to a grant project awarded to Lane Community College in Sept. 2023.This course is meant to be implemented in spaces where people are creating courses and course content for students of any kind. It has a focus and theme around education and online learning, teaching instructors how to implement accessibility and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in the learner’s online course content. The format of this course was created as an online facilitated course and is estimated to take around 10 hours to complete.
Current formats provided include:
Moodle backup file. (Uploads to Moodle and other LMS’s that have a Moodle import option)
Moodle Common Cartridge file. (Uploads to Canvas, Blackboard, and other LMS’s, but may have more limited importability.)
Google Drive course file. (Includes all content in Moodle and common cartridge but in Google docs. Usable for anyone who does not have an LMS listed or needs access to source files for those using LMS’s above.)

Descripción del curso:
El "Manual de técnicas de laboratorio digital" desarrollado por el MIT, es una serie de videos diseñados para ayudar al alumno a prepararse para sus prácticas de laboratorio de Química Orgánica. Cada video proporciona una demostración detallada de una técnica de laboratorio, así como información y consejos útiles. Estos videos están pensados para complementar, y no reemplazar, el manual de laboratorio del alumno y los guiones de prácticas. De hecho, se beneficiará más de ver los videos si ya ha leído sus guiones.
