The basic idea is that a system has parts that fit together to make a whole; but where it gets complicated – and interesting – is how those parts are connected or related to each other. There are many kinds of systems: government systems, health systems, military systems, business systems, and educational systems, to name a few.References:Frick, T. W. (1991). Restructuring education through technology. Bloomington, IN: Phi Delta Kappa Educational Foundation.While systems can become very complex, the concept behind a system can be easily explained. A system is made up of parts that join together to form a whole. Frick (1991) suggests that where things get interesting is in the specifics of how parts relate to one another.References:Frick, T. W. (1991). Restructuring education through technology. Bloomington, IN: Phi Delta Kappa Educational Foundation.

Learners can practice giving feedback knowing they are not vulnerable to social repercussions. Less than perfect expressions, unwarranted negative reactions, and fruitless ideas are bound to be part of novice feedback, but teachers hope to create learning configurations that support both the giver and the receiver of feedback, especially if the commenters are novices.References:Howard, C. D., Barrett, A. F., & Frick, T. W. (2010). Anonymity to promote peer feedback: Pre-service teachers’ comments in asynchronous computer-mediated communication. Journal of Educational Computing Research, 43(1), 89-112.If providing peer feedback is a skill to be learned then perhaps it is advisable to give learners opportunities to practice giving feedback knowing they are not vulnerable to social repercussions. In this way, anonymity can act “as a scaffold to generating critical feedback” (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010, p. 104).References:Howard, C. D., Barrett, A. F., & Frick, T. W. (2010). Anonymity to promote peer feedback: Pre-service teachers’ comments in asynchronous computer-mediated communication. Journal of Educational Computing Research, 43(1), 89-112.

Determine the type of plagiarism by clicking the appropriate radio button.Original Source MaterialStudent VersionThe patterns which control a portion of the world, are themselves fairly simple. But when they interact, they create slightly different overall configurations at every place. This happens because no two places on earth are perfectly alike in their conditions. And each small difference, itself contributes to the difference in conditions which the other patterns face.References:Alexander, C. (1979). The timeless way of building (Vol. 1). New York, NY: Oxford University Press USA.Alexander connects simple patterns to the apparent complexity that seems to surround us. The fact that no two places on earth are perfectly alike means that when simple patterns interact they create slightly different overall configurations at every place. This is analogous to the way that the result of math equation can be changed using different variables.

In nature, this quality is almost automatic, because there are no images to interfere with natural processes of making things. But in all of our creations, the possibility occurs that images can interfere with the natural, necessary order of a thing. And, most of all, this way that images distort the things we make, is familiar in ourselves.References:Alexander, C. (1979). The timeless way of building (Vol. 1). New York, NY: Oxford University Press USA.Consider how creations that come from the natural world differ from those that are created by humans in terms of the influence of images. On the one hand, “natural processes of making things” are not impacted “because there are no images to interfere” (Alexander, 1979, p. 48). However, in human creations “the possibility occurs that images can interfere with the natural, necessary order of a thing” (Alexander, 1979, p. 48).References:Alexander, C. (1979).

How do you know that you’ve discovered something that distinguishes the successful companies from other companies? You don’t know. You can’t know–not unless you have a control set, a comparison group.References:Collins, J. C., & Porras, J. I. (2002). Built to last: Successful habits of visionary companies. New York, NY: Harper Paperbacks.One has to ask oneself how you know that you’ve discovered something that distinguishes the successful companies from other companies? Otherwise, you can fall into a trap that is the same as identifying “the management practice equivalent of having buildings” (Collins & Porras, 2002, p. 14).References:Collins, J. C., & Porras, J. I. (2002). Built to last: Successful habits of visionary companies. New York, NY: Harper Paperbacks.

In planning experiences for technology-rich teacher education programs, curriculum designers could consider some skills as prerequisite, such as word processing, basic computer operation skills, e-mail, and skills associated with the World Wide Web.Reference 1Brush, T., Glazewski, K. D., & Hew, K. F. (2008). Development of an instrument to measure preservice teachers’ technology skills, technology beliefs, and technology barriers. Computers in the Schools, 25(1), 112-125.Original Source Material 2With regard to factors that contribute to the teachers’ readiness, computer proficiency took priority. Basically, if teacher computer proficiency increases, the teachers’ feeling to be more ready to integrate technology into instruction also increases. Reference 2Inan, F. A., & Lowther, D. L. (2010). Factors affecting technology integration in K-12 classrooms: A path model. Educational Technology Research and Development, 58(2), 137-154.Low computer proficiency may negatively affect the use of technology in schools (Inan & Lowther, 2010) To address potentially low technology skills among preservice teachers, teacher educators could consider some skills as prerequisite, such as word processing, basic computer operation skills, e-mail, and skills associated with the World Wide Web. However, this approach would require instructional options for students who lack such skills.

The principles provide a framework of tactical solutions that range from simple to complex (i.e., tactical complexity) and promote understanding of these solutions through creating games that exaggerate their importance and relevance in game settings.References:Mandigo, J. L., & Anderson, A. T. (2003). Using the pedagogical principles in net/wall games to enhance teaching effectiveness. Teaching Elementary Physical Education, 14(1), 8-11.If tactics don’t matter and a game is all about pure physical skill, it can become rather boring. The tactical dynamic, especially between players, can lead to unexpected outcomes as a result of player innovation. Furthermore, giving players an opportunity to contribute to creating solutions to problems that are tactical in net/wall games can contribute to enhancing player engagement.

We can make our own movies with camcorders in our homes; we can publish our own books. Soon teachers and students will be able to use computer-video technology to produce their own learning materials. All it takes is time, know-how, and some funds.References:Frick, T. W. (1991). Restructuring education through technology. Bloomington, IN: Phi Delta Kappa Educational Foundation.Computers are so powerful that educators and students are now able to produce their own multimedia and Web-based learning materials. They just need to take the time required to learn to use the authoring tools and related technologies such as digital cameras and camcorders.References:Frick, T. W. (1991).

These were birds that helped each other in an apparently altruistic way, but refused to help – bore a grudge against – individuals that had previously refused to help them. Grudgers came to dominate the population because they passed on more genes to future generations than either Suckers (who helped others indiscriminately, and were exploited) or Cheats (who tried ruthlessly to exploit everybody and ended up doing each other down).References:Dawkins, R. (1989). The selfish gene (3rd ed.). Oxford, England: Oxford University Press.Dawkins (1989) provides the example of the Grudgers where three unique approaches to helping played out to ensure that “Grudgers”, those birds that helped each other in an apparently altruistic way, but refused to help individuals that had previously refused to help them, came to outnumber both the so called “Cheats” or “Suckers”.References:Dawkins, R. (1989). The selfish gene (3rd ed.). Oxford, England: Oxford University Press.

Determine the type of plagiarism by clicking the appropriate radio button.Original Source MaterialStudent VersionWe considered a number of methods for measuring similarity between countries with respect to their mathematics attainment. A simple comparison of scale scores over time was rejected as this would limit the investigation to asking how much respondents from a country know on a given topic. Instead, we chose an item-level analysis that allows for a closer examination of what respondents in a given country know and how this compares to other countries.References:Rutkowski, L., & Rutkowski, D. (2009). Trends in TIMSS responses over time: Evidence of global forces in education? Educational Research and Evaluation, 15(2), 137-152.One criticism of using scale scores or total scores on a test is that it can hide interesting details. For example, Rutkowski and Rutkowski (2009, p. 140) rejected scale scores in favor of an item-level analysis since it would allow “for a closer examination of what respondents in a given country know and how this compares to other countries”.References:Rutkowski, L., & Rutkowski, D. (2009). Trends in TIMSS responses over time: Evidence of global forces in education? Educational Research and Evaluation, 15(2), 137-152.
