However, some teachers may have had unsavoury experiences using it for teaching. Before jumping in to put your courses online, there re several things to look out for. This short paper looks at three important factors that determine the success of online teaching: flexibility, authenticity, and being up-to-date in your design. he ubiquitous e-learning knocks on our doors every now and then. Whether it is the glorious promise made in an article you read, or whether your school Thas mandated your courses go online, the notion of putting a course online has invariably crossed many a teacher’s mind. I was enticed nine years ago when I read about the glittering promises of e-learning. Like a mouse to the piper, I followed the masses into cyberspace. I started using Topclass in 1999 and moved to Blackboard, WebCT, and now MOODLE. I went from putting my teaching material and video clips of my lectures online, to practice questions, and eventually having entire courses online without having to see my students face to face. So, what are the essential things one must one know before putting a course online? The foremost question that one should ask is ‘Why should I go online, when I’m fine with the ‘talk and chalk’ method?’ This is because your students will be asking the same question: ‘Why should we go online for this learning activity or course when we can do it face to face? What are the benefits? Why must we go beyond the 90 minute classes and do extra work online? I did not sign up for this online thing; I paid my fees for the face to face classes.’ These are the questions to consider during the design and delivery of your teaching online. What is your purpose? Why are you doing this online? Once you have adequately answered these questions, you are not far from having a successful online teaching experience. As a teacher, putting your course online offers many advantages. The main one is flexibility: flexibility in updating your notes, materials, and resources anytime and anywhere in the world where there is an internet connection. I had the pleasure (or pressure sometimes) of grading my students’ assignments overseas on a holiday. Without bringing my laptop or papers along, I used the hotel’s business centre where there was an internet service. Online teaching also makes grading easy as the system tabulates the percentages and grades without me having to punch in figures on a calculator. Any course management system also provides a great monitoring system on students’ attendance and participation in the cyber class. Essentially, for the teacher, it provides a one stop place for excellent teaching and administrative features. Teaching functions include quizzes, tests, video teaching clips and visual demonstrations via asynchronous and synchronous platforms.

However useful and flexible it is for the teacher, the students are not fooled in an online course. If flexibility for the student is compromised, they will sense it immediately and will voice their displeasure. I had students coming up to me and telling me point blank that they hate going online because it was too cumbersome. Once, my students handed in their assignments in hard copies asking why they should submit online when they can do so right in front of me? I have also seen teachers instructing students to type messages online to each other whilst sitting in the same class (!). Students will see the illogical and irrelevant manner of communication and learning when put through a longer path to get to their destination. So, while it makes good sense for you to go online for several of the teaching and administrative purposes, it is important to think about things from your students’ perspective. The keyword then is flexibility, especially for students’ learning. Often times, in the teacher’s eagerness to incorporate online learning into their courses, they forget this fundamental reason why courses are offered online. Turning your course online for the sake of having technology or just following the crowd would be a huge mistake. Flexibility for the students means they should be able to learn at their own pace, retrieve notes, lecture video and other information at anytime and from anywhere. They should both be able to get feedback on their work via the program you have and receive more comments from you than if it was face to face. After all, this is the differentiating benefit of online learning. It should also be a one stop place where students need not log into another system, such as an email or program to access information. You can sell these benefits to your students if you are starting to go online. Students need to be convinced of the benefits, otherwise they will not even visit your website! The second important question to ask when you go online is whether you provide an authentic learning experience. This, like any teaching method, provides the relevance and context of learning for the students. I have seen teachers who required the class to discuss a topic online using English in an EFL class. It turned out to be highly unnatural for the students who could write to each other in their own native language, but who were forced to use English. The test of authenticity is this: which is the more natural way for your students? If for example, to source for a definition of an unknown word the students find it natural to flip open their e- dictionary rather than to wait for the booting up of the computer and logging onto the website, then the requirement for the students to check for the meaning of a word by going online is inauthentic. The students will find it unnatural and a waste of their time and effort. Authenticity goes a long way in ensuring your online teaching experience is both enjoyable as well as relevant. Authenticity means an access that is either complementary or supplementary. If you were to take a cursory look at the manner most people go online either for work or for leisure, it is inevitably done as a complement or a supplement. A modern company’s intranet has become almost a necessity for the company to function. Emails, file sharing and even administrative matters such as applying for leave and receiving personal income statements have gone online and employees are required to use the intranet for organisational effectiveness and performance. So, face to face communication and conducting of business have been complemented with the online intranet. The online system complements because it is more efficient (and flexible!) in processing business and communication. It has cost-effective benefits for both the employee as well as for the employer. Likewise, in e-learning, Comparative Culture Before putting your course online… 3 when a conventionally contented face to face class decides to go online, the complementary benefits of effectiveness and flexibility must be evident for both the learner and the teacher. A supplementary function may exist too for online access since it offers records of past meetings’ minutes or the option of checking up on another employee’s phone number instead of rummaging through cabinets for the hardcopy version. Likewise, face to face teaching classroom can be supplemented with notes, instructions, announcements and video clips of lectures uploaded online for students to refer to after class if needed. So, we have to be clear in our minds whether we design our online classes as supplementary or complementary to regular classes in order to reap the fruits of e-learning. A cautionary note must be made about using online teaching as a substitute for regular classes which is the third mode of use. In most educational settings, students are able to attend classes physically.

    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return.

  • Conflicting Visions of the Jesuit Missions to the Ottoman Empire, 1609–1628
    journal of jesuit studies 1 (2014) 260-280 brill.com/jjs Conflicting Visions of the Jesuit Missions to the Ottoman Empire, 1609–1628 Adina Ruiu Ph.D. candidate in History, Université de Montréal and École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales, Paris [email protected] Abstract Beginning in 1609, as a result of the Capitulations concluded between France and the Ottoman Empire, the French Jesuits launched their missionary work in Istanbul. Protected by the French ambassador, the French Jesuits defined themselves as both French subjects and Catholic missionaries, thus experiencing in a new and compli- cated geopolitical context the tensions that were at the core of their order’s identity in France, as elsewhere in Europe. The intricate story of the French Jesuit mission to the Ottoman Empire is here considered through two snapshots. One focuses on the foun- dational period of the mission in Istanbul, roughly from 1609 to 1615. A second one deals with the temporary suspension of the Jesuits’ mission in Istanbul in 1628. These two episodes illustrate multilayered and lasting tensions between the French and the Venetians, between the hierarchy of the Greek Orthodox Church and Western mission- aries, and between missionaries belonging to different Catholic orders, between the Roman church’s centralism and state-funded religious initiatives. Based on missionary and diplomatic correspondence, the article is an attempt to reconstitute the way in which multiple allegiances provided expedient tools for individual Jesuit missionar- ies to navigate conflicts and to assert their own understanding of their missionary vocation. * The author holds an M.A. in Literary Studies from the Université du Quéebec and an M.A.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See ADDRESS OF JOHN PAUL II TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SECRETARIAT FOR NON-CHRISTIANS Friday, 27 April 1979 Dearly beloved in Christ, IT GIVES ME great pleasure to meet you, the Cardinals and Bishops from various countries who are Members of the Secretariat for Non-Christians, and the Consultors who are experts in the major world religions, as you gather here in Rome for your first Plenary Assembly. I know that you planned to hold this meeting last autumn, but that you were prevented by the dramatic events of those months. The late Paul VI, who founded this Secretariat, and so much of whose love, interest and inspiration was lavished on non-Christians, in thus no longer visibly among us, and I am that some of you wondered whether the new Pope would devote similar care and attention to the world of the non-Christian religions. In my Encyclical Redemptor Hominis I endeavoured to answer any such question. In it I made reference to Paul VI’s first Encyclical, Ecclesiam Suam, and to the Second Vatican Council, and then I wrote: “The Ecumenical Council gave a fundamental impulse to forming the Church’s self-awareness by so adequately and competently presenting to us a view of the terrestrial globe as a map of various religions... The Council document on non-Christian religions, in particular, is filled with deep esteem for the great spiritual values, indeed for the primacy of the spiritual, which in the life of mankind finds expression in religion and then in morality, with direct effects on the whole of culture”[1].

ABSTRACT SOULS IN THE BALANCE: THE “HERESY AFFAIR” AT THE UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON, 1960-67 Brown, Mary Jude University of Dayton, 2003 Director: Dr. Sandra Yocum Mize This dissertation examines the “Heresy Affair” at the University of Dayton, a series of events predominantly in the philosophy department that occurred when tensions between the Thomists and proponents of new philosophies reached crisis stage in fall 1966. The “Affair” culminated in a letter written by an assistant professor at Dayton to the Cincinnati archbishop, Karl J. Alter. In the letter, the professor cited a number of instances where “erroneous teachings” were “endorsed” or “openly advocated” by four faculty members. Concerned about the pastoral impact on the University of Dayton community, the professor asked the archbishop to conduct an investigation.
