Brief HistoryExceptional education teacher preparation programs
have a long history of offering distance education courses (Johnson, 2004; Spooner, Spooner, Alogozzine, & Jordan 1998).• These early courses used traditional methods of instruction including readings, lectures, and projects (Johnson, 2004)

Brief HistoryThere is a growing body of evidence
to support that online courses are as effective as traditionally taught courses (Caywood & Duckett 2003) and (Smith, Smith, & Boone 2000) compared groups taking the same course either online or in a traditional face-to-face class and found no significant difference in initial and follow-up learning gains
Smith (2000) found positive advantages to online discussions over face-to-face class discussions
O’Neal, Jones, Miller, Campbell, & Pierce (2007) found that web based instruction was as effective for disseminating special education course content to pre-service teachers as traditional instruction

Streaming VideoBrief video clips to elicit emotion,
show examples of methodology, etc.Splits up material & presentationIncreases interestOpportunity to go beyond just telling the story about the kids
with special needs or your concept, but to show studentsWhere do I find these videos?
YouTube, TeacherTube, Vimeo, Hulu, internet search (Google: Videos)…. http://streaming.discoveryeducation.com/
Make your ownEncourage student submission of clips that demonstrate
concepts E.g. Submission from one of my students on behaviorism:
She called it “Pavlov in the office”: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1079423/the_pavlov_altoid_theory/

Jing IdeasGive directions that might be unclear
e.g. Discussion post: This is what academic discourse looks like, this is an example of a good discussion post, this is a non-example… be careful of… etc.
e.g. How to score the KTEA practice assessment
Give a student/group feedback on their assignment (especially if it is too much to write!)
Insert in a lesson to split up or explain confusing parts of a PowerPoint.

Camtasia IdeasOnline lecture from professor or
guest speaker (if you need them to voice over a PowerPoint)Note: If you want primarily video, use
a video camera insteadOpportunity to navigate through
difficult conceptsOpportunity to showcase multiple
things and complete a voice-over as you talk about them (this TED presentation would translate nicely into a Camtasia presentation).
