Preparation of instructional materials c. Statements of course objectives: State and Initiate discussions with students of course objectives, as aligned with ISTE and IN state standards, for each course. d. Course packets: Created an Online Environment in WebCT, in lieu of course packets, where articles, resources, and discussions questions were posted for EDCI 566. Created an Online Environment in WebCT, in lieu of course packets, where articles, resources, and discussions questions were posted for EDCI 591C. Created an Online Environment in WebCT, in lieu of course packets, where articles, resources, and discussions questions were posted for EDCI 660 (Ph.D. seminar). Created course packet equivalent for EDCI 564 (online readings) to reflect a variety of areas not covered within text as well as up-to-date research. Created an Online Environment in Angel, in lieu of course packets, where articles, resources, and discussions questions were posted for EDCI 566 (Spring 2004), taught at Crawfordsville. Created an Online Environment in WebCT, in lieu of course packets, where articles, resources, and discussions questions were posted for EDCI 590S. Created an Online Environment in WebCT, in lieu of course packets, where articles, resources, and discussions questions were posted for EDCI 673. Created course packet for EDCI 660, Program Evaluation and Grant Writing, to incorporate readings from educational contexts as well as business/industry, differing approaches to conducting qualitative and quantitative evaluation procedures. e. Visual aids: Designed PowerPoint Presentations for majority of class sessions, EDCI 566, as a way to reinforce readings and discussions (for class and then posted to WebCT). Richardson 4 Designed PowerPoint Presentations for majority of class sessions, EDCI 564, as a way to reinforce readings and discussions (for class and then posted to WebCT). Designed PowerPoint Presentations for majority of class sessions, EDCI 270, as a way to reinforce readings and discussions (for class and then posted to WebCT). Designed PowerPoint Presentations for majority of class sessions, EDCI 673, as a way to reinforce readings and discussions (for class and then posted to WebCT). f. Other materials: Developed an online course (EDCI 564) using best-practices from today's research on online learning. This includes continuity across learning modules, design of online discussions, team-projects, and other course activities. A5. Experimentation in teaching methods and techniques Fall 2005 Utilized the power of the videoconferencing system to solicit national speakers for 7of the 12 class sessions (EDCI 660) in our introductory seminar for students in Educational Technology. This allowed students to interact with major names in our field as well as former grads working in the field. Fall 2004, Fall 2005 Incorporated an evaluation component into an application course (EDCI 566) so that students had to go beyond construction of the project to ensure it's reliability and credibility. Students were asked to solicit feedback from multiple stakeholder groups on an application project and incorporate recommendations. (Fall 2004, 2005) Introduced new technologies into application course (EDCI 566), notably Camtasia and MovieMaker. Student projects were extended to include development of an educational video. (Fall 2005) Spring 2005 Taught EDCI 270, my first large-lecture course, with approximately 450 students. The format of large lectures is very different from my past teaching experiences and I learned much in terms of how to conduct a large lecture and instructional strategies that can be incorporated into this type of setting. While EDCI 564 serves as the first online course for many students, I experimented with some best practices, such as allowing students to choose topic (within particular parameters), serve as the expert, develop the discussion questions and facilitate the online discussion with guidance from me. Many students indicated they enjoyed being able to not only serve as experts but also experience what it is like to teach online. Introduced students in EDCI 564 to the concept of peer feedback. After modeling feedback for several weeks students were then asked to provide feedback to one another (instructor assigned) using the same rating scale and Richardson 5 while providing a rationale/feedback. Many students indicated that it was during this process that they learned the most as they had t reflect not only on their peers discussion items but also their own. Requested and had the first online SGID performed at Purdue University (EDCI 564). Spring 2004 Taught an apprenticeship-style course, EDCI 673 Issues and Methods in Educational Technology Research, which is an advanced research course that utilizes a hands-on, real-world research project that students engage in from developing of the research question to writing final results. Fall 2003 Trained on and experimented with various video-editing packages within EDCI 566 context in an effort to find a compatible package that was both accessible for students and easy to use. Experimented with offering the EDCI 660 EdTech seminar course via a more traditional correspondence-style for teachers who were unable to attend the traditionally lunch time seminar. Summer 2003 Developed and co-taught a course in conjunction with CERIAS, EDCI 590S Curriculum & Instruction, which was designed for Computer Science Faculty from across the country working on certification in information assurance and security (a NASA grant initiative). Spring 2003 Designed a new online course, EDCI 660, Program Evaluation and Grant Writing (for Spring 2003), utilizing WebCT course management system. Co-taught EDCI 673: Advance Research Methods for EdTech, with Dr. Peg Ertmer, based on an apprenticeship-mentoring model that allows students hands-on experience with authentic research and subjects. Fall 2002 Taught courses ETAP 522 and 523 online via the SUNY Learning Network for the University at Albany/SUNY. Experimented with course management systems (Lotus Notes, WebCT) and facilitation methods for online learning environments. Conducted several class session of EDCI 660: EdTech Seminar utilizing videoconferencing and audioconferencing in addition to traditional guest speakers. A7.

Current Research Interests and Projects a) Peer Feedback as Scaffolding in Online Learning Environments (Ongoing) The role of peer feedback in online discussions is not an avenue that has been heavily researched, especially as a scaffolding tool, and the interdisciplinary Online Learning Environments research team (see evidence of interdisciplinary work for further info here) is examining how peer feedback can be utilized in order to maintain quality online discussions, which is a time-consuming task for instructors. In addition, we are focusing on the general features and functionality that are required to make a peer feedback tool extensible across disciplines and institutional environments. Richardson 21 Pilot-test data was collected in fall of 2004, background research and literature reviews completed to date that focuses ont eh efficacy of peer feedback. Protocols are in development and data is to be collected spring 2006 from my EDCI 564 course, focusing on peer feedback and critical thinking. The next phase will be to look to other content areas and types of classes when the peer feedback tool itself becomes available (approximately summer 2006). In addition, several grant proposals have been submitted and the group has received a Discovery Learning Center SEED grant for the project. b) Scaffolding in Online Learning Environments My individual research efforts into scaffolds in online learning environments takes a broader approach than the previous area of peer feedback. While peer feedback is one type of scaffold, with this line of inquiry I hope to establish best practices for types of scaffolds built into online learning environments. In particular, I am working on the hard (pre-planned, generally built-in) scaffolds and the soft ("on-the-fly") scaffolds that are typically used in online learning environments, as they do differ from traditional class formats. Current efforts involve background research on scaffolding practices and the development of a survey related to typical scaffolds to be administered to several programs at Purdue; notably the CEE, MBA, and EdTech program. c) Redefining Webquests WebQuests are an instructional tool that incorporates the power of the Internet while utilizing open-ended or problem-based learning. I am currently working with Phil Van Fossen and Ann Stickman ( a graduate student), on redefining what a WebQuest is based on the original principles. We are looking to establish a way to define what an exemplar WebQuest looks like and why, given that so many are posted on the web that really do not adhere tot eh principles. The outcome of this research is to allow practitioners to be able to evaluate WebQuests while also raising the bar for this particular instructional strategy. We are currently collecting reliability data on a rubric that will be used to identify exemplary examples of WebQuests. d) Cognitive Engagement and Social Presence in Online Courses (Ongoing) A continuation of my earlier research examining the impact and importance of social presence in online learning environments this takes the research to the next level by looking at how students engage with learning materials and activities in an online learning environment. The data included surveys that gauge cognitive engagement via learning styles and strategies, as modified from John Biggs (1987) work on cognitive engagement in traditional higher education classrooms. Presentations related to the data at both international and national conferences (EdMedia, AECT) were conducted and an article was submitted and accepted (2005) on cognitive engagement and online learning. The final step for this data source, but not necessarily for this area, relates to cognitive engagement and students’ perceptions of online community. The outcomes from this line of research inform online learning instructors and instructional designers on how students, according to their learning style and strategies, engage with different learning activities as well as how their perceptions of online community impacts learning style and strategy. Richardson 22 e) Researching the Impact of a Digital Literacies: A District-wide Curriculum Redevelopment. (Ongoing) In coordination with the EDCI 673 course and Peg Ertmer this project in phase 1 examined the Digital Literacy Initiative at Lawrence Township in Indianapolis in terms of effective coaching techniques, professional development of coaches, affordances and constraints of the coaching process. To date, little research has been done on the coaching model of professional development, and even that literature has had little to do with district-wide, systemic change process. The district, through the advice of its advisory board asked us to help asked us research the process and characteristics involved. Findings were reported to the district and at a professional conference In addition, an article has been accepted for publication (Journal of School Leadership), written by Dr. Ertmer and myself with the assistance of students in 673. It is scheduled to be published in January 2005. The 673 students, Peg, and I also presented the findings at the 2003 MWERA conference Phase 2 (2003-2004), also in conjunction with EDCI 673, examined the impact of the initiative on teachers’ instruction, beliefs, and practices as well as on student achievement. Again, Peg Ertmer and I, along with our 673 students, submitted an article for publication related to the project, it is currently under review (Teacher Education & Practice). The 673 students and I also presented the findings at the 2004 MWERA conference Future research areas include (1) investigating principals’ leadership styles and how that has impacted the initiative in terms of teachers’ change in practice, and (2) revisiting the digital literacy coaches at the official end of their terms to see how the coaching model has fared and lessons learned (2005-2006). B8. Evidence of Interdisciplinary Activity Professor Richardson believes in the strength of interdisciplinary work, whether it be in research, service or teaching. She has worked with many different colleagues across Purdue and beyond, some from within the EdTech program (Peg Ertmer, Scott Schaffer, Jim Lehman, Tim Newby and Krista Simons), and some from within the larger COE Department (Erik Maelwski, JoAnn Phillion, Chuck Kline, etc.). In addition, she has managed to meet and work with colleagues from other departments and programs either through grant-writing efforts, grant-related work, teaching courses, or a shared interest in research topics. The most important aspect of the interdisciplinary work she has been engaged in is how the varying backgrounds and research methods have provided new insight into her own research and ideas. Jennifer established a research group dedicated to the investigation of Online Learning Environments. The group includes herself, Peg Ertmer, Jim Lehman and Tim Newby (EdTech), Phil Swain (Engineering), Jay Akridge (Ag Econ), and John Campbell (ITaP). We meet regularly meeting to brainstorm and discuss possible new avenues of research which, given the interdisciplinary nature of the group, has already Richardson 23 produced some innovative lines of inquiry, grant proposals, a Discovery park SEED grant award, and research projects related to peer feedback. Jennifer has been working with Lawrence Township School District in Indianapolis, along with Peg Ertmer, on research related to their systemic coaching program. This inter-disciplinary activity also allows Jennifer to keep in touch with the everyday practices of teachers and administrators in the K-12 arena while also conducting research related to the project. Beginning in the summer of 2005 Jennifer has been working with faculty from Educational Technology (Tim Newby, Krista Simons) and the Department of Entomology (Tom Turpin, Steve Yaninek) on the Insectaganza project, a national version of the Bug Bowl. A proposal was in the works to be funded by Terminix but fell through when a third partner, the Audobon Society of New Orleans, was rendered inoperable due to Hurricane Katrina. Current efforts include grant-writing to support the line of inquiry, for which the faculty of Educational Technology will focus on establishing and evaluating the educational science principles of entomology into the everyday classroom. Jennifer has previously worked with faculty from English Education and CERIAS on a research project that examines the practices of secondary ed teachers and online communication practices as well as knowledge of online security issues. This project has been completed and an article submitted. Grant-writing efforts that were interdisciplinary in nature included: o Discovery Learning Center grant with faculty from Educational technology, Engineering, Vet Med, Ag Econ, ITaP (funded) o An inter-university grant (Bellevue Community College) NSF CCLI grant with faculty from Engineering, Vet Med, Ag Econ, ITaP (not funded) o US Dept. of State grant with faculty from Ed Admin and the School of Technology as well as other EdTech faculty. o A Discovery Learning Center grant with faculty and staff from CERIAS and English Education (funded) o Several (NSF) grant efforts with Melissa Dark from CERIAS and the School of Technology (not funded) o An inter-university grant (NSF) with the University of New Mexico and CERIAS (not funded) o An NEH grant with Phil Van Fossen of Social Studies Education (not funded) o A Teacher Quality Grant (US Dept. of Ed) that included faculty from other programs, such as Brenda Capobianco (Science Education) and Megan Staples (Math Education). (not funded) During the summers of 2003 and 2004 Jennifer worked with Phil Van Fossen as an instructor for the Ackerman Center’s Summer Institute for Civics Education Also during the summers of 2003 and 2004 Jennifer developed and co-taught a course, 590S Curriculum & Instruction, with Matt Rose and Melissa Dark of CERIAS. The course was for Computer Science faculty from across the US seeking certification in information assurance and security. Solicited potential research partners across campus including faculty from School of Liberal Arts, School of Engineering, School of Technology, CERIAS and Computer Science Outreach. Richardson 24 B9.
