  1. Become a LEADER in Developmental Biology Education! Tutorial: Submitting learning/teaching objects for the SDB digital library Diana Darnell: SDB/LEADER Archivist

  2. What is LEADER? Libraryof EducationalAnnotatedDEvelopmentalbiologyResourcesA searchable, peer-reviewed, collection of digital Learning Objectsavailable through:

  3. Why Have LEADER? Why not just use Google? • Have you ever had to teach (or learn) something you didn’t already know well and wished a colleague could recommend an appropriate Learning Object? • Peer reviewed Learning Objects give you and your students confidence & teach responsible web research skills • Links to related Learning Objects and papers can create networks of useful material. • Metadata can help you refine your search productively!

  4. Learning is the object, butwhat is a Learning Object? • A Learning Object is any item you could use in teaching or learning, such as: An active learning exercise, animation, assessment tool, audio file, course syllabus, curriculum, dataset, diagram, digital presentation (PowerPoint), exam, field trip guide, figure, glossary, graph, homework assignment, illustration, image, laboratory exercise, lecture or lecture outline, movie, non-lab exercise, origami exercise, photograph, podcast, Q&A set for clickers, review, simulation, teaching strategy, textbook, video file, web page, X-ray…

  5. Why should YOU submit a Learning Object? • Think about something you have developed to improve learning for your (DB) students. • Think about the amount of time you put into making it useful and clear. • Think how great it would be to extend the benefit of that effort beyond your students! • Think how much better you might make your LO while you are tweaking it for submission!

  6. How can you submit your Learning Object? • Go to the APS web page: • http://www.apsarchive.org Click here

  7. Click here

  8. Because we are in the process of changing our current software, the official SDB pages can’t yet link your LO and metadata to the database. For now you need to disguise yourself as an APS submitter and send me an email so I can recognize you in your disguise and reroute you to the SDB reviewers: darnell@email.arizona.edu Check here Then click here

  9. Add your title A short description A helpful suggestion Click here to advance For each page, fill in the blanks with text or selections From a given list. These are text boxes.

  10. Highlight all fields that could benefit from your LO. These become search terms. The command/apple key lets you pick several at once. Click Add to select

  11. Click here to add your name And names of other contributors. When finished adding folks, Click Submit.

  12. Select authors/contributors, or Click here to add contributors

  13. Fill in the blanks. The red asterisks indicate required fields but if you can put everything in that would be appreciated. Click Add and then go back to the Authors list and select the author you just added

  14. Every LO must have a first author (contact person). If there is no publisher, then the first author becomes the publisher of record. Once you’ve added everyone, return to Author Information and select Done adding Authors. This will take you to the technical Information page

  15. Pick the format that matches your LO (use the pulldown) and list special requirements. Then, either enter the URL of your LO if it is online, or upload the file onto our server. Next stop: Educational Information

  16. Make your selections from the educational options provided. Click Add/Modify to see the Selection lists or use the Pulldown arrow. These and other choices form the metadata that others will use to select your LO from the BEN and NSDL archives.

  17. Highlight all terms that would help someone find your LO if they were wishing and searching for something just like it. Consider if parts might be used separately and create links for those, too.

  18. Recommend appropriate educational levels for your LO. Highlight, then Add. Remember, several levels may be appropriate.

  19. Try to imagine how other Teachers/students might use your LO at the ages you selected. Select all appropriate options. Highlight and Add.

  20. If you picked a K-12 age group and you know which standard Your LO applies to, click add and select it. Otherwise, leave this blank.

  21. If there are restrictions on the use of this LO, say so here. I usually recommend that the author be acknowledged.

  22. A short movie, syllabus, lab, exam or other single item would go here Groups of things with no order go here Groups with an order go here Your class web page goes here

  23. If you are submitting several LOs that work together (such as a lab, study guide and quiz), link them together here. If your LO builds on someone else’s, link them together here. If you (or others) have published on this LO, say so here.

  24. Yeah! You’re done, unless you would like to change anything. If so, do it now.

  25. To get your LO shifted into the LEADER archive, send me an email with your title or LO number. darnell@email.arizona.edu I’ll send it to 2 reviewers and let you know their comments. Accepted LOs become peer-reviewed, online publications.

  26. "Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For, indeed, that's all who ever have." Margaret Mead • Thank you for submitting your LO to the SDB LEADER archive.

  27. Reviewers Evaluating LOs look for: Scientific Accuracy Sufficient LO narrative (could others use it correctly?) Background/supportive sources listed Educational Relevancy Pedagogical Effectiveness Appropriate animal use and care instructions Technical details (grammar, links okay?) Appropriate metadata

  28. Become a Reviewer!!! • Be the first to see great new LOs! • Help out other educators and students! • Expand your national service to SDB! Send me an email (darnell@email.arizona.edu) with your name, department, institution, phone number and areas of expertise/interest.

  29. How to use BEN with your Class? • Go to: www.biosciednet.org Sign in (for tracking) Put in key words & level Or other metadata Browse the LOs that fit Pick one and check it out!
