Week1: Let me introduce myself

-

Nice to meet you, R547 fellow students!

My name is Sunmi Seol my pronouns are She/Her. I am in the second year in the Instructional Systems Technology (IST) EdD program at Indiana University Bloomington.

I live in Palo Alto near Stanford University in California and settled here about 14 years ago. Palo Alto is a good place to live. There are many trees and flowers for jogging, parks, libraries, and hills. Many IT companies such as Google, Facebook, Apple, Oracle, Intel, LinkedIn, Amazon, etc. are located, so it is called Silicon Valley.

Before coming to the USA, I worked as a software engineer at Samsung Electronics for about 5 years. I am currently working as a mobile app developer at Stanford University Graduate School of Education.

After graduating, I would like to design and experiment with the most appropriate instruction by combining the emerging technologies and various educational theories learned for each educational environment. In short, I want to become an educational technology practitioner.

In this class, I want to learn when to use single-case research, how to design single-case research, and how to conduct single-case research.

I really like soap dramas and action movies, and recently I've been interested in gardening. I have two different majors, Electronic Engineering and Educational Technology. 

I look forward to learning a lot from my fellow students and an instructor.

ITEC830 (Week2): New Technology

Potential and side-effect of Mobile Technology  Using mobile application to review the previous own learning in a classroom   Answer 1.      I believe Mobiles will have the greatest impact for instruction. As the Horizon Report mentions, over 75% of internet users in Japan already use a mobile as their first choice for access. Also, manufacturer Ericsson reports 80% of people accessing the internet will use with their mobiles by 2015. As these numbers show, a great number of populations are using mobiles in their lives. In addition, considering the current trend toward the consolidation of open-source mobile operating system platforms [1] and that mobile phone ownership among children has increased by 68% in the past five years [2], there could be no better time to take advantage of these affordances.      A myriad of populations and affordances including children can support the assertion that mobile technology...

Week2 : learning HTML & CS

-
I majored in electronics engineering and have been working in the IT field for many years. Most people can expect to be able to do all sorts of coding if they work in the IT field, but that's not true. IT is a huge field and there are too many sub-fields. It is the same that being able to speak doesn't mean they can speak all languages. I knew a little about HTML & CSS, but I haven't coded them properly until the present. Self-study of HTML & CSS gave me a good opportunity to actively interacting with learning content, searching for more resources, merging my previous knowledge of HTML & CSS into the newly acquired knowledge, and applying the new knowledge to creating web-based instruction. I reviewed multiple websites and watched several videos to better understand how basic elements of HTML & CSS were implemented into the web formats, and learn how to design my instruction in the website. I will not master web development, but I will be able to what HTML ...

Week 3: What I really want to teach?

  I already knew a little bit about CSS which is related to styling of the website. However, I've never actually used CSS because I've never actually built a website. Before taking this class, I thought that building a website was just like making an app. It was the same in making the website according to the desired specification by coding it, and putting the desired function into the website to make it work. However, I found that the way of putting the styling and functions to the website was quite different from making a mobile app. It was really interesting to me. To develop a website, three programming language are needed, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It is the different point from mobile app development which needs only one programming language, such as objective C, Swift, Android Java, or Flutter. HTML is responsible for the layout of, CSS is for styling of, and JavaScript is in charge of functions of the website. Also, writing a code at any text editor is different from m...
