SPC's Web and
Instructional Technology Services RLO (reusable learning objects)
site. Reusable Learning
objects are resources that can be used to help enhance the intended
learning outcome. To some people it could be collection of web pages. To
others a learning object requires a certain level of interaction. This
is the problem with the definition of a reusable learning object. Most
agree that learning objects should have a set of learning objectives and
outcomes that meet those objectives. The learning object can be created
using animation or just text as long as it meets the objectives and
outcomes.
Reusable Learning Objects can enhance your course whether you are teaching an online or face-to-face course. The RLO site is your one stop shop for requesting, understanding, and obtaining learning objects. |
