Title: Using pictures in the classroom
Body: I have used photos to help low-intermediate students with writing as well, specifically in asking questions as a brainstorming technique. I'll put 1 photo on different spots on the wall and large blank paper next to them. Then I'll have pairs of students choose a photo and list all the questions they can think of about their picture. You can focus on a number of things from there. You can have the students 1. answer their questions and write a story 2. evaluate each others' grammatical form 3. experience how they can use question asking with their own writing. Shipley, A.

Title: The Ten Commandments in Designing Online Courses
Body: http://asstudents.unco.edu/students/AE-Extra/2004/6/index.html The demand for online courses continues to grow at an exponential rate. A study conducted through the National Center for Educational Statistics (NCES) indicated that 88 percent of institutions that offered distance education courses in 2000-2001 or that planned to offer distance education courses in the next 3 years, would start using or increase the number of Internet courses using asynchronous computer-based instruction as a primary mode of instructional delivery. In contrast, 62 percent of those institutions indicated in the next 3 years that they planned to start using or increase the number of Internet courses using synchronous computer-based instruction as a primary mode of delivery (NCES, 2004). As someone who has reviewed, trained faculty, participated in the design and development and taught both web-supported and web-based courses I have been asked many times over the years, "If you could name ten things that would make my online course successful what would they be?" This article addresses that question and proposes ten commandments to provide the essentials for creating a quality online course regardless of the discipline being taught.
