The Discussion Board (DB) is part of the core of online learning. Classroom discussion in an online environment requires the active participation of students and the instructor to create robust interaction and dialogue. Every student is expected to create an original response to the open-ended DB question as well as engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the week. At the end of each unit, DB participation will be assessed based on both level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion.

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

You are to write an ORIGINAL script that cannot exceed 2 pages in length (typed, 12pt font). Begin, as any good playwright does, with a purpose! What is the idea/theme/emotion that you are trying to impart to your audience? Do you want to make a political statement or do you just want to make someone laugh? You may set your play anywhere, anytime and use as many or as few characters as you need. Your play does not have to have a tidy conclusion, it can end ambiguously or with resolution. Your play does not need to be realistic (although it certainly can be). Don’t worry about proper grammar, instead try to capture the way people really talk – though avoid “text speak” at all costs. Please be aware however that you are writing for the stage, not a film! Your story should be told through dialogue, not excessive images/action. You should have a clear idea of how to stage all the action in your script on-stage and in front of a live audience (just how will you stage that car crash?). Your play should have a maximum of 2 scenes – preferably just one. Include as little or as much stage direction as you need. Have fun with this and be creative! Projects may be turned in early but will not be accepted late. No exceptions. Word to the Wise:

Complete Test and Assessment Construction Project

Each student is asked to select some course, or unit of work within a course, and develop a test and assessment construction project that includes the following:

1. A list 8 important learning outcomes to be assessed.

2. A list of subject-matter topics to be covered in the instruction.

3. A set of specifications for the test items and assessment tasks as described in Chapter 6.

4. A 20-item test using a combination of selection-type and short-answer, supply-type items which includes: (a) complete directions, (b) test items that are appropriate for the specific learning outcomes being measured, and (c) a scoring key. Each test item should be keyed to a specific learning outcome.

5. One extended-response assessment tasks using either the essay question format discussed in Chapter 10 or the performance-based task approach described in Chapter 11. The assessment tasks should include complete directions, including specification of any special resources (e.g., equipment, books) available to students and a scoring guide. Each task should include a brief description of the learning outcomes the task is intended to measure and why those outcomes would be difficult or impossible to measure with items like those used in the 20-item test.

6. A bibliography of books and other source materials used in completing the project.

This project is fairly time consuming but it takes the student through the major steps of constructing tests and assessments that are emphasized in the textbook. Since the steps in the project closely parallel the sequence of the chapters in the textbook, it is possible for students to start on it early in the semester and to work on each phase of it as it is discussed in class.

The above project can be reduced in scope by reducing the number of objectives, the number of test items, or the number of performance assessment tasks.

All sources must be cited. The project will be for you to write a Job Hazard Analysis/Standard Operating Procedure using the format prescribed in Lesson 11 (see PowerPoint on Black Board).

What you will be doing is conducting a Job Hazard Analysis/SOP.
What I want you to do is craft a JHA/SOP based on the criteria listed below.
I decided to leave the job opportunities open ended. If you run into difficulty,
default to a garbage truck operator (keep in mind the focus to control the physical number of steps) or a cashier at a grocery store (something easy to monitor).
Select a job that is in your organization that is one of those jobs that you may be having some difficulty with or is a job that is somewhat challenging. It should have at least 10 steps to the job and require some PPE and have some hazards associated with it, such as chemical, biological, electrical, mechanical, etc. If you do not have a job like this in your facility, then try to find one. It can also be associated with either a confined space issue, Lockout/tagout issues, life-safety, asbestos exposure or bloodborne pathogens. Or the control of chemical hazards or noise hazards, as set forth in OSHA’s Hearing Conservation Program. Finally, you may want to look at issues involving the use of powered industrial trucks, such as forktrucks or manlifts or aerial cranes like the ones used in construction.
You may want to do a demonstration of a confined space entry, with a tripod and harness, etc… or an electrical safety lockout/tagout procedure on a piece of equipment. Worst case scenario, go out and take a video of your garbage man picking up your garbage and operating the mechanical levers on his truck. You should then use the JHA blank form that is in the Course Documents and incorporate it into your project. So, how you do this is our choice.
You may ask –how long should this be? Well, I will answer that this way. Long enough to cover, at a minimum, the main headings in presentation 11 under “suggested layout.”
