Assessment in an Online Mathematics Course
We describe an assessment strategy that helped to ensure high participation levels together with a relevant certification in a MOOC Mathematics course. We report on the first running of the Markov Matrices course making emphasis on the preparation of exercises with random parameters for graded weekly tests. A brief description is given of forum interactions during self-assessment moments follow...
متن کاملThe Development and Assessment of an Online Microscopic Anatomy Course
Histology is the study of microscopic anatomy which traditionally uses glass slides and microscopes to view the various structures. Virtual microscopy uses digitized microscope slides and essentially converts the computer screen into a microscope field of view. Virtual microscopy is now well established and is being integrated into histology courses with great success across the country. The po...
متن کاملStrategy for Assessment of Online Course Discussions
The online teaching environment is a powerful interactive medium for promoting higher order thinking skills in students. Faculty have to adapt to this new medium by using components in online course tools (such as discussion boards) to create assignments that incorporate cooperative and collaborative learning. Assessment of this type of learning activity is different from tests used in traditio...

متن کاملVLBI Techniques in Pulsar Astronomy
Very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) provides the resolution needed to make precision measurements of a pulsar’s parallax and proper motion. In making these measurements, the astronomer is faced with difficult calibration problems and a paucity of strong point-like calibrators that ultimately limit the accuracy of parallax measurements of even the brightest pulsars. A new technique to calib...
