RC1356_TEAM015 Shaik Khaja Hussain Ms. Sai Kumar Open Education Resource: Flipping the classroom with MOODLE About the OER Open educational resources (OER) are freely accessible, openly licensed documents and media that are useful for teaching, learning, and assessing as well as for research purposes. This OER is created for my college students and also for Java beginners to learn basic concepts of Core Java. As a part of this OER I have divided this tutorial into nine chapters. In each chapter the specific and related PPTs or uploaded in Video format as well as PowerPoint PPTs. This OER is useful for all graduate and undergraduate students. OER is available at: https://nationaldegreecollege.moodlecloud.com/login/index.php Target Audience: Under Graduate students (B.Sc. Computer Science III Semester), Engineering Graduates (B.Tech. C.S.E. and B.Tech. I.T. students). Tags: Moodle Activity, Java Programming, Basic Concepts of OOPs, Java Basics, Object, Class, Abstraction, Encapsulation, Polymorphism, Inheritance, Message Passing, Java Tokens, Java Data Types, Exceptions, Exception Handling, Arrays, Strings, Vectors, Interfaces, Inheritance, Packages, Multithreading, Thread, Life Cycle of a Thread, Applet, Applet Programming.

Section 2: Design Decisions Nature of Decisions taken The design decisions involved in the creation of this OER were of broadly three types: 1. Content Decisions 2. Pedagogic Decisions 3. Technology Decisions Content Decisions The content decisions related to: a. Topics to be covered Java Programming Tutorial What, Why and How? b. The material required such as videos, PPTs and other documents etc. Pedagogic Decisions Slideshows are quick to produce, easy to update and effective to inject visual interest into the presentation. However, slideshows can also spell disaster even for experienced presenters. The key to success is to make certain your slide show is a visual aid and not a visual distraction. Tips for Making Effective PowerPoint Presentations Use the slide master feature to create a consistent and simple design template. It is fine to vary the content presentation (i.e., bulleted list, 2-column text, text & image), but be consistent with other elements such as font, colors, and background. Simplify and limit the number of words on each screen. Use key phrases and include only essential information. Limit punctuation and avoid putting words in all capital letters. Empty space on the slide will enhance readability. Use contrasting colors for text and background. Light text on a dark background is best. Patterned backgrounds can reduce readability of text. Avoid the use of flashy transitions such as text fly-ins. These features may seem impressive at first, but are distracting and get old quickly.

How to use this OER For using this OER, A student need to create an account and enroll the course An Administrator for admin permission in your MOODLE Username: admin Password: national If you want to login as Guest then click on Login As a Guest button Step 1: A student can watch the PPT videos in the same site or in youtube https://youtu.be/bdqfzkjzmva?t=7 Step-3: After logging into the moodle select the course and accordingly follow the chapters and assignments as per the schedule given. Use of videos: The following links provide the useful videos for this OER 1. https://youtu.be/bdqfzkjzmva 2. https://youtu.be/irntyzx5y3c 3. https://youtu.be/xdnw-j6vh8k 4. https://youtu.be/krxgfhognma 5. https://youtu.be/allfje2qz6g 6. https://youtu.be/bnaoam74vea 7. https://youtu.be/ohgox3uykj8 8. https://youtu.be/st24w8nlydi 9. https://youtu.be/wcn4mpiydlc These video may help for better understanding. Step4: Once after going through the videos from youtube and the material uploaded in the moodle the students have to attempt the PPTs as per the schedule and finally submit the assignment for the final grading of the course.

Section 4: Evaluating Effectiveness of OER The OER effectiveness can be assessed at two levels: 1. At the student level 2. At the consumer level Effectiveness at the student level Effectiveness at the student level involves metrics related to student access of the resource and student learning. The Moodle lesson report can be used to evaluate this effectiveness, with the report showing the total number of students who accessed the reports (along with time) and their marks (based on their answers to MCQs). Additionally there is an option for teacher to grade essays and these marks also will be calculated if needed. Screenshot for Enrolled participants: Effectiveness at consumer level OER consumers are typically teachers who want their students to learn concept mapping. Linking a survey on three main constructs Ease of Use, Concept Coverage and Concept Complexity, can help in identifying the effectiveness of this OER at consumer level. This has to be done as a follow-up activity. Open End Resources: PowerPoint Slides to learn JAVA Page 10
Implementing Survey Thus every user who downloads this resource will be asked their email address and as a follow up the survey will be send to their email address. Survey Questions: Construct Question Scale I found it easy to download the Lesson Activity Ease of Use I found the instructions to setup the Lesson Activity useful in setting the activity in my Course I was able to successfully create Lesson in my own course Strongly Disagree to Strongly Agree (5- point Likert Scale) Concept coverage The Lesson covers the required concepts related to concept maps that I need for Concept complexity The content inside the Lesson is too complex for my students to understand Open End Resources: PowerPoint Slides to learn JAVA Page 11
