Sunday, November 28, 2010. 8212;GNU Image Manipulation Program. GIMP is a free, online image-editing program that works a lot like PhotoShop. When I had my son, I downloaded and began using GIMP in order to spice up my photographs and learn digital scrapbooking. Because I was highly engaged and invested in learning, I really enjoyed the experience. I found online tutorials, both text and video, to help me learn the basics in the beginning. I also did a lot of learning by trail and error. Without realizin...

Performance Problems and Non Instructional Solution. As an English III teacher, one performance problem in my line of work is poor student homework completion. If I assign any type of homework (essay, worksheet, etc.), my turn in rates are often lower than 50%. A cause analysis leads me to believe that there is a lack of incentives and rewards, feedback, and support for my students to feel motivated to complete homework. I was able to find a few definitions of electronic performance support systems that ...

ETEC 561: Knowledge Management and the Blended Learning Approach
http://ehall--etec561.blogspot.com/2010/11/knowledge-management-and-blended.html
Sunday, November 28, 2010. Knowledge Management and the Blended Learning Approach. Our district has had a paced curriculum for all core courses for about five years now. The online curriculum for the English department is hard to understand and offers little in the way of interactive, engaging lessons to teach the assigned objectives.

ETEC 561: Section 5: Trends and Issues in Various Settings
http://ehall--etec561.blogspot.com/2010/12/section-5-trends-and-issues-in-various.html
Sunday, December 5, 2010. Section 5: Trends and Issues in Various Settings. I had a hard time understanding the definition of rapid prototyping in our textbook. My personal experience with rapid prototyping has been through watching my brother-in-law, a successful video game designer, create fantasy knifes using 3D software and sending the files to a company that will create a plastic 3D version of the knives. And the idea of using rapid prototyping in instructional design made a lot more sense to me.
