Each student is expected to complete one assignment in four stages: 1) proposal (10%), 2) draft (10%), 3) peer review (10%), 4) final paper/project (10%) and presentation (5%). You can choose your assignment from the following suggestions or propose your own that is relevant to the course and carries similar effort. For assignments done by teams of students, a proportionately larger level of accomplishment is expected, and all team members will receive the same grade.

Suggested Assignment A: This assignment involves selecting an emerging technology for detailed analysis, scanning the research literature and related materials for studies about this technology; experiencing hands-on usage of a typical application for teaching and learning (if feasible); and preparing a scholarly paper synthesizing its merits, barriers to implementation, and likely impact and evolution. (Approximately 5-8 pages, single spaced, 12 font size Times New Roman, APA style).

Suggested Assignment B: This assignment involves a comparative analysis of several web-based learning environments, scanning the research literature and related materials for studies about the learning environments; experiencing hands-on usages of the environments (if feasible); and preparing a scholarly paper synthesizing its merits, barriers to implementation, and likely impact and evolution. (Approximately 5-8 pages, single spaced, 12 font size Times New Roman, APA style).

Suggested Assignment C: This assignment involves identifying a site that plans to implement a technology that is “emerging” for an educational context and developing a detailed management plan for that specific implementation, based on approaches from the course and from the scholarly literature. (Approximately 5-8 pages, single spaced, 12 font size Times New Roman, APA style).

Suggested Assignment D: Developing and evaluating educational podcasts: preparing a summary paper that presents lessons learned, along with a short project introduction video. (The summary paper is approximately 3-5 pages, single spaced, 12 font size Times New Roman, APA style).

Suggested Assignment E: Developing a digital portfolio: selecting relevant media technologies to create a web-based learning environment. The project can include personal postings in the course, evaluation of a particular capability in several existing online learning environments, or a comparison or contrast of several learning environments/platforms relevant to their goals. You can use social software such as blog and wiki, or use a web authoring program such as Dreamweaver and Flash to create this digital portfolio. Regardless of what you use, the learning environment or project needs to be accessible to all the colleagues in the course.

Assignment F: Personal choice negotiated with the course instructor before the proposal stage.
