The time in the classroom is then used for more interactive and hands-on participatory exercises.\n\n<strong>Gamification:<\/strong> A teaching approach that integrates game elements into the classroom to better engage students in the learning process. Gamification may include technology-based games in the online classroom, including mobile applications.\n\n<strong>Hybrid: <\/strong>Hybrid is another term commonly used to describe blended courses. The important thing to remember is that there is no set formula for hybrid or blended courses. It is up to the instructor to determine the best combination of face-to-face and online content, interaction and assessment to meet the learning goals and objectives.\n\n<strong>Intellectual Property: <\/strong>The ownership of online course materials is an intellectual property issue, and each campus institution will have specific intellectual property rules and regulations in their faculty handbook. These regulations will relate to ownership of online class materials, and whether or not an instructor may teach a course that another instructor has developed.\n\n<strong>[wpanchor id=\"LMS\"]Learning Management System (LMS):<\/strong> A technology based application that is used to structure, develop, delivery, and assess learning. The LMS is the means through which the instructor delivers content, provides avenues for student interaction, and assesses the mastery of learning within the online course.\n\n<strong>Mobile Learning<\/strong>: Learning that is enabled through the use of a mobile device, including tablets, phones, MP3 players, and eBook readers. Mobile learning implies that the instructor and students have access to these devices and can access materials from any location using these devices.\n\n<strong>MOOC:<\/strong> Massive Open Online Course, a large-scale online course that may or not be offered for free. There is no limit on attendance in these courses, and some MOOCs run with thousands of students.

They may be working full or part time, and juggling work, family, and school at the same time.\n\n<strong>Open Educational Resources (OERs):<\/strong> Teaching and learning materials that are available online for free to instructors and students. Examples include full courses, modules, assignments, exams, labs, games, simulations, and other digital media. OER libraries used most widely within Open SUNY include OER Commons, and Merlot.\n\n<strong>Pedagogy: <\/strong>The art, science, and craft of teaching. Pedagogy encompasses the manifestation of the practice of an individual instructor. Some research proposes that the term refers to the teaching of children only, whereas the term <strong>andragogy<\/strong> refers to the teaching of adults.\n\n<strong>Personal Learning Community<\/strong>: Personal learning communities are made up of individuals who come together to interact and create learning experiences. Within this network, members intentionally connect in groups structured around topic areas, and participate according to their individual learning preferences.\n\n<strong>Personalized Learning: <\/strong>An approach to tailoring learning to meet the strengths, needs, and interest of students on an individual basis. Unlike adaptive learning, personalized learning does not rely on the integration of technology, but focuses on engaging the student in determining the best approaches to meeting learning goals and standards.\n\n<strong>Proctoring: <\/strong>Online exams can be proctored to ensure that students are not cheating. Students taking exams online may be proctored at assigned testing centers, remote proctors, or proctoring technology.
