I've incorporated cooperative learning strategies into my class periods, and I've used our university online system to give quizzes and receive evaluations, but I haven't actually created a course or unit completely online. I started to do so with Moodle and PortaPortal, but then flaked out. || "Out of clutter, find simplicity. From discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunities."

I've also been working more on media to create problems in a visual format.

 * Wally Katolik,

e-mail: wkatol@aol.com || || Mathematics 9-12 || For the past two years I have been teaching Algebra 1 Inclusion. With few exceptions students are well below grade level in their mathematical ability.

My goal is to learn how to use Moodle to develop a comprehensive, stand alone, PA Standards Aligned, Algebra 1 course which students can complete at their own pace.

My intent is for each concept to be developed using UbD principles in conjunction with Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Leaning principles and includes animations, gizzmos, and virtual manipulatives so as to address various learning modalities.

I also want to include requisite scaffolding so that students who are well below grade level can build their knowledge so as to be successful in learning the ALGEBRAIC concepts.

Thus, students who successfully complete this course will have LEARNED real algebra. || As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.
