But not every activity should — or even can — be outsourced. Consider decisions that parents make in the course of raising children. In deliberating about whether to send them to private school, or whether to allow them to start dating at age 13, or whether to require they attend church, parents do not simply reason instrumentally, finding the most efficient means of achieving preset child-rearing goals. They also seek to determine what their values are, what goals are worth pursuing, and what raising this particular child is all about. They identify tensions between the values they hold, they set priorities, and they make tradeoffs. This is part of what constitutes the activity of parenting. Were a couple to simply find a parenting consultant and then relentlessly defer to them, they wouldn’t be establishing themselves as particularly dedicated parents. They wouldn’t be parenting at all.

Rethinking the purpose of video by using it for important context, storytelling and real-world cases and applications rather than just delivering lectures. Leveraging existing high-quality content from respected organizations, rather than reinventing the wheel.

AI-powered negotiation simulations, where learners practice decision-making and receive real-time feedback.Customized branching scenarios that guide learners through decision trees or logic models—formerly too complex or costly to build at scale.AI-driven course development assistants that help faculty structure high-quality courses more efficiently, making the design process more accessible and less intimidating.

If we seize this moment to realign our teaching methods around competency, agency and meaningful engagement, AI can become an instrument for positive transformation instead of a source of fear.

The promotive interactions and positive interdependence facilitated by cooperative learning activities offer opportunities for students to get to know each other and engage deeply with the course content.

The repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) suggested the participants in the asynchronous condition had greater gains in abacus knowledge, but the proximity of the p-value (p=.051) to the customary threshold of .05 makes it difficult to use the p-value to draw conclusions regarding the statistical significance of this difference. Participants reported approximately the same levels of engagement or satisfaction in both conditions.

Lopez and Romantic said that many of the students turning to distance-only degree programs are already statistically less likely to graduate—low-income students, and those with jobs or caretaking responsibilities. Lopez said that 55 percent of the 2015–16 SNHU cohort included in the IPEDS data were Pell Grant recipients.

“Many of the learners SNHU serves face unique challenges including full-time jobs, family responsibilities like raising children or caring for loved ones, and other commitments while pursuing their degree part-time,” she wrote. “These factors often impact their pace or otherwise extend the time it takes for many of our learners to graduate.”

building instructors' confidence and interest. Although most students want remote attendance options and although many instructors will accommodate their students, instructors may not be interested in teaching courses that are designated as HyFlex. Anecdotally, from conversations with instructors and based on personal experience, teaching two audiences simultaneously is challenging, especially without the sufficient technology. It requires greater cognitive bandwidth to manage two audiences at once, plus the ability to engage with them or facilitate engagement between them. Finally, many instructors do not want to lose in-person engagement, which is what they are most familiar and comfortable with, and some have expressed that they are fearful of a situation in which most of their students move online in a HyFlex format.

Policy Within this class, you are welcome to use foundation models (ChatGPT, GPT, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, GitHub Copilot, and anything after) in a totally unrestricted fashion, for any purpose, at no penalty. However, you should note that all large language models still have a tendency to make up incorrect facts and fake citations, code generation models have a tendency to produce inaccurate outputs, and image generation models can occasionally come up with highly offensive products. You will be responsible for any inaccurate, biased, offensive, or otherwise unethical content you submit regardless of whether it originally comes from you or a foundation model. If you use a foundation model, its contribution must be acknowledged in the handin; you will be penalized for using a foundation model without acknowledgement. Having said all these disclaimers, the use of foundation models is encouraged, as it may make it possible for you to submit assignments with higher quality, in less time. The university's policy on plagiarism still applies to any uncited or improperly cited use of work by other human beings, or submission of work by other human beings as your own.

If you have questions about what is permitted, please reach out to me.It is important to remember that ChatGPT and other AI tools are not a replacement for your own critical thinking and original ideas. The ultimate goal of this course and any tool used to submit work is to enhance your own learning and understanding, not to undermine it.As a college student, it is your responsibility to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity. This includes a) ensuring that all work submitted for grades is your own original work, and b) properly citing any sources that you use.Having AI write your paper constitutes plagiarism. If the source of the work is unclear, I will require you to meet with me to explain the ideas and your process.

Synchronous Online Class Sessions

University students with a higher sense of belonging are more engaged in the classroom and generally have more successful academic outcomes (Hausmann, Ye, Schofield, & Woods, 2009; Wang & Eccles, 2012)

One reason that there has been limited empirical research on belongingness in higher education is the lack of sound measurement of the construct.

Pedagogy: Some Ideas on How to Use GPT in Teaching

However, when students learn that it is normal to experience academic struggle and that such struggle does not demonstrate their lack of belonging, they have improved their educational outcomes compared with students who do not receive such messages (Walton & Cohen, 2007; Vaccaro et al., 2015).

Students are less likely to be engaged in learning environments in which they feel they do not belong (Hurtado & Carter, 1997; Strayhorn, 2019)

What is a sense of belonging?

Reflecting on Your Practice: Inclusive Teaching Principles

Reflect on Your Sense of Belonging Practices

When students feel a sense of belonging in the classroom, it can increase their educational success and motivational outcomes in multiple ways, and teachers can help create this feeling of belonging by building connections between classroom and community, according to DeLeon Gray, Ph.D.

The research in this regard is quite clear, namely that the frequency and perceived worth of interaction with faculty, staff, and other students is one of the strongest predictors not only of student persistence but also of student learning” (Tinto

ults suggest that with regard to academic motivation withinschool contexts, students' sense of belonging and support in school can in someways override the influence of a student's personal friendship group. Schools thatcan function either as a whole or as a set of smaller teams to create a sense ofcommunity where adolescent students feel personally known, important, and encouraged to be active participa

Goodenowand Grady, 1993) also point to a strong relationship between academic achievement or schoolleaving and students’ sense of belonging to the school community.

The research in this regard is quite clear, namely that the frequency andperceived worth of interaction with faculty, staff, and other students is one of the strongestpredictors not only of student persistence but also of student learning” (Tinto 1994).

It is human nature that when we feel welcomed, respected, and develop a sense of belonging,we are more apt to return to the setting or endeavor than when those factors are not present.When adults decide to resume their education after years of being out of school, they usuallybring with them the expectations and connotations of whatever their previous educationalexperiences were like. For some adult learners the decision to go back to school can be anxietyprovoking. They are stepping into unfamiliar territory, possibly without an expectationof belonging there. For that reason, cultivating a sense of belonging from the momenta prospective adult learner comes through the doors or calls is an important persistencestrategy.

What is the connection between instruction and persistence? Instruction that fully engages students is a critical component of the persistence “puzzle.” Instructors have the most contact with students and thus carry perhaps the greatest responsibility for meeting students’ academic needs that brought them to the program in the first place. It is also primarily in the classroom that students may feel the sense of community that supports learning and persistence, and where they can explore and negotiate learning that will meet their needs.

It is human nature that whenone feels welcomed and respected and has developed a sense of belonging, one is more apt to return tothe setting or endeavour that engenders those feelings–and the converse is also true (New EnglandLiteracy Resource Centre

It was seen(Table 2) that students’‘Sense of belonging’to the university has the most important direct effect onstudents’intention to stay or drop out of university.

‘Sense of belonging’has a positive direct effect on‘Intention to drop out’, meaning thatthe higher students’sense of belonging to the institution, the likelier they will be not toshow an intention to drop out. (The results of the crosstab analyses are:‘Ifeelathomeatthis university’(29.0% versus 45.7%);‘IwishIhadgonetoadifferent university’(40.8%versus 18.6%);‘I feel I belong at this university’(76.7% versus 93.4%);‘How likely is it thatyou would choose this university again as an institution to study at?’(64.6% versus 82.9%);‘Howsupportivehastheacademicenvironmentbeensofar?’(80.4% good/very goodversus 95.2% good/very good); and‘Ifeelsafeatmycampus’(82.2% versus 92.3%). Thecrosstab results indicated that students intending to drop out experienced a lower senseof belonging

Specifically, recent research outcomes also point to the crucial role of identity andidentity-related constructs in students’academic persistence (e.g. students’sense of belonging tothe institution (Hoffman et al.2003)). These constructs have also been identified as key to studentretention (Krause2011; Osborne and Jones2011; Osterman2000; Thomas2012). Cumulatively, theresearchfindings have shown that student dropout depends on several factors, of which arelatively small number can be influenced and addressed by institutions
