Dear PD List ~
- 1) To prepare for our discussion this week, please read parts or all of the paper titled Online Professional Development Design Elements for Adult Educators New to Teaching Online:
- Part I:
- Part II:
- 2) To participate in discussion, either reply to a previous message or send a new email to: professionaldevelopment at nifl.gov . For a checklist on how to make an effective post (thank you Rochelle Kenyon!) please click here: Effective Email Posts.
- 3) There are different ways to follow the discussions.
- a. This PD List has a Wiki affiliated with it (called the PD Area of the ALE Wiki <http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Adult_Literacy_Professional_Development> ). With thanks to a suggestion and offer to help from one of our members, I've created a space within it to compile messages so that you can find full threads of emails all on one page. This is a manual process, so please bear in mind it is only as updated as quickly as I (and others) can cut and paste :-)
- Design Elements Discussion Wiki:
- b. You can also monitor discussion list posts from the PD List Archives (most recent posts are at the top):
- 4) Some of you are already sharing useful tools for online learning and collaboration. Keep it up! :-) You might also add your recommendations to this AALPD Resources Wiki for Communities of Practice:
- Click on the link above and add your recommendations. We'll revisit it at the end of our discussions to see all that we have collected.
As always, please let me know how I can help. :-)
