Josh uses the survey tool, Qualtrics (http://www.qualtrics.com/) for his classroom as a learning tool but this tool could be used to enhance online learning as well. This tool can also be used for quizzes in which learners can take it multiple times, thereby creating a learning opportunity. There are "back-end" metrics that the instructor has access to. I'm going to give this tool a try.
ZOOM is a web meeting tool that use frequently. An annual cost of under $100 provides a reliable meeting tool option. The only draw back at Regis U. is that it is not currently integrated with Outlook so once I schedule a meeting, I need to copy and paste (not hard right?) into an Outlook meeting invite.
YouTube - we all know about. I learned that YouTube now allows uploads of videos longer than 15 minutes. It's easy to set up. Here's an excerpt from YouTube's Help:
Upload videos longer than 15 minutes
By default, you can upload videos that are up to 15 minutes long. To upload longer videos, verify your account with the following steps.
- On a computer, visit the upload page atwww.youtube.com/my_videos_upload
- Click Increase your limit at the bottom of the page, or visit https://www.youtube.com/verify
- Follow the steps to verify your account with a phone. You can choose between receiving the verification code through a text message (on a mobile phone) or an automated voice call.
