A local college director recently noticed while reviewing
the college’s most current six-month attendance records student numbers were
lower for class attendance than the prior six months. This comparison raised
further questions and in doing so he chose to send out an email to the entire
college teaching staff asking questions if there were difficulties being
experienced while teaching the students and if so to list them so they can be addressed
at the next monthly meeting.
Two weeks went by and when the evening of the college
teacher meeting came about the arena was a full house as everyone was on board
and accounted for. The college director gathered the many pieces of
documentation and began the evening discussion. Shortly into the discussion one
of the professors mentioned how her students have frequently complained about
classroom connectivity then another professor spoke up and mentioned his
students have complained about errors appearing when trying to enter the blog;
the list of comments went on for what seemed like one professor to another
throughout the arena.
The above may or may not be an exact scenario of your
college but things like this can and will happen for many reasons. When
education growth takes place technology can be ignored, and that causes a
problem for the teacher and those who are to be taught by it. In the above
example a simple way to correct the situation is to provide the solution of a
better more structured course management system that can handle your learning
environment atmosphere. In the above example it is a college environment and
there are course management systems that can be used for your college level
teaching to ensure security, higher attendance numbers, computer Internet
connectivity, and more important students will have the
ability to be involved with virtual learning at different levels.
Edvance360 provides your college with a course management
system to create the exact classroom module structure using video lectures and
URL resources. Within your module structure you can create quizzes and testing
that is safely secured. You can add specific widgets such as group weekly
discussions, blog discussion, and projects. Using the course management system
you have the ability to track students by grades so you can stay aware of how each
person does on quizzes and tests. This is a helpful item as it does show when a
student obtains a specific low grade or failing mark. With the course
management system it will give you the teacher ability to speak with the
student personally and guide him or her with knowledge so they can improve
their class average and pass.
