There are a few questions asked recently. I share with you here.
Q: Can I participate our classmates’ Capstone presentations?
A: You must ask for the permission to attend. Generally, each student’s presentation is not open for others.
Q: I lost my original application letter? What should I do?
A: Contact ETC Coordinator, Dr. Michael Blocher, at Michael.Blocher@Nau.edu to obtain a copy.
Q: Where I can rehearse my project presentation?
A: You can use the assigned Elluminate presentation rooms (I-IV) to practice your presentations. You have moderator’s privilege so you have all features and tools to present your project.
Q; How to write my literature review?
A: You can access the Elluminate recording on how to write literature review at: http://elm.elluminate.com/NAU-Institution/play_recording.html?recordingId=1226177297180_1254964965122
Q: All TS sections should be submitted and completed by the deadline?
A: Yes, all of them. see http://www.chihtu.org/bb/etc695/Syllabus/ETC695Schedule.html Student desperation session is a survey. You can simply respond to the survey to complete this requirement.
Q: What do I need to do for Capstone Portfolio Archive in Section 4 on TS?
A: In this session, you can submit any other supporting documents, materials, sources etc. from your project that do not fit in other TS session. If you think it would help the faculty reviewers to have better understanding on your project, use this section to submit your documents. For example, in the past, we have students who submit their recorded instructional sections or training section etc. The appreciation letter from the institutions that they implement their project; thank you notes from the participants; the pictures of sessions etc. If you do not have any additional documents to submit, please submit it with a message to indicate that you do not have other project document to submit.
Q: What can I expect after my capstone presentations?
A: The faculty reviewers will review our project and presentation and return their review results by 11/21. The reviewers may ask us for further clarifications on our submitted documents, and ask us to modify our final products etc. The reviewers will take our approved proposals to review our projects and reports. If you have any changes on your proposals, be sure to address why it was changed, why it was changed to certain way. Be sure to justify the changes.
Q: What are the best way to write up my project report?
A: Use the template to guide your report. Use your Goals, objectives/outcomes etc. to guide you to write your report. You should have aligned assessment/evaluations to each goals, objectives that you have. Use the data from these evaluations/assessment to address whether you achieve your goals or not. Be sure to use statistical analysis to support your report if applicable.
Q: What are the common weaknesses in the project report based on previous students experiences?
A: Frequently, students forget to assess and report technology, instructional strategies that they integrated. Typically, students just report how much their participants learned the “Content.” This is not enough for our project. So make sure you do assess integrated technologies and integrate instructional strategies. And report whether the integrated technologies and instructional strategies are effective. If yes, why they were effective. If not, why did not work.
