What technologies (and these can be old, new, or emerging) might be most appropriate for your final project? Does your final project align with any of the trends represented in the Horizon Report you reviewed?
Personally, online courses are difficulty since we are using WebEx that I won't able to see students' reaction and I normally try to avoid teaching online courses. From reading How to choose the best Ed-Tech tools for Online Instruction, and his Post II: 5 [very good] Ed-Tech tools for Online Instruction, I am thinking Google Hougouts and Google Drive could be most appropriate tools for my final project.
In NMC Horizon Report: Higher Ed, digital libraries have been "deemed critically important to both students and instructors in higher education...", such as Digital Library Center at Notre Dame; at Fresno State University, librarians assist professors to redesign syllabus and generate learning objects, etc.
The two Ed-Tech applications that I choose align with working/assisting professors with generating learning objects, more specifically using online tools that students could review the course and refresh research knowledge outside of the class. I am thinking not only using it for online instruction, but I could use Google Drive on my face-to-face courses. Thanks to Eliot Boden's week 3's two posts gives me some ideas to use this week's tool to motivate students to share their information sources. I have to dig and design the instruction more.
