Week 11

Final Project

Here is my final project for this quarter.  I have created the materials for one lesson for a newly developed online MAT 1A Calculus class.  I am not quite sure when or if we will ever implement an online class like calculus since this is one of our transferable courses we teach at the community college level, but it was fun to experiment and use what I have learned from this course as well as other ETEC classes in the past to see if I could make something like this work.

MAT 1A Online

This class was created from MyMathLab.  The students would go to WebCT, which is our school's CMS.  From there, I would have a copy of my course syllabus for them to read, and also a link directing them to MyMathLab.  I would also have a copy of how to register for MyMathLab on WebCT. 
How to Register for MyMathLab

The students would then be able to register and get started using MyMathLab.  For each section I would create a lecture video and the dictated notes transcribed into a Word document for those students who have disabilities. 

The students would have access to additional videos that I have found and viewed to verify accuracy in what is being presented to the students.  I would include those videos in the videos tab.  I would also create a PowerPoint presentation for each lecture for the students so they have a set of notes from which they make want to refer back to.

The homework for each lecture would be presented in the homework tab.  The students would be able to try the homework problems as many times as necessary to get the problem correct.  Each time they ask the computer for help, in order to receive credit, they would need to complete a similar problem on their own.  I would have due deadlines for each of the homework assignments so that the students would stay on track.

Please view my lecture videos, PowerPoint, definition of related rates, and sample problems and videos.  Comments and suggestions are always welcomed.

Also, look at the course outline of record and the syllabus that I have created for this class.  All of the topics from the district's course outline of record are covered by MyMathLab.

Thanks!
