What are the aims of the Video Conferencing Project? # To provide a better understanding of critical factors relating to conceptions, motivations and experiences of staff and students in a variety of VC contexts. # To inform future strategy and practice through the provision, use and evaluation of a series of products, materials and resources that can inform appropriate staff development. # To provide models and techniques for evaluation that can systematically be used in the future to promote an ongoing process of transformation, both of staff conceptions and use of VC, and of student learning. # To disseminate findings and outcomes within the Universities involved and to the sector more broadly, through HEA Subject Centres and other appropriate bodies.

Annenberg Media develops workshops and courses that provide teachers with content and pedagogical learning. Workshop and course resources consist of video, print and Web components that can be used for self-study. "Patterns, Functions, and Algebra" explores the "big ideas" in algebraic thinking, such as finding, describing, and using patterns; using functions to make predictions; understanding linearity and proportional reasoning; understanding nonlinear functions; and understanding and exploring algebraic structure. The course consists of 10 two-and-a-half hour sessions that each include video programming and activities, provided online and in a print guide. The 10th session explores ways to apply the algebraic concepts you've learned in K-8 classrooms. You should complete the sessions sequentially.
