This just in from Jennifer:
"There's a great ID resource on one of Harvard community's websites Harvard ABLConnect. I particularly like their knowledge base of hundreds of learner activities across all disciplines, which you can find on the website here. There is a section of the site dedicated to "Going Digital" that encompasses both synchronous and asynchronous online learning. Yet it's the repository of activities, which you can filter in various ways, that I really appreciate.
From that website, check out this award-winning activity by Dana Mirsalis entitled, 'Let’s try to stop the Tokugawa shogunate from collapsing: Role Playing Historical Decisions,' where 'students travel back in time to 19th-century Japan, assuming the roles of advisors to the Tokugawa shogunate. They must synthesize primary readings on social and political unrest to propose reforms that could prevent the regime from collapsing.' How cool is that?!?!
Here are a few of the STEM-related activities (my field) I came across:"
