    Obilade, Titilola T. (2017-03-07)
    In this site, you will find four lesson plans that have incorporated 3D printing. The lessons were from Geometry, Ecology, Earth Science and Chemistry. In Geometry, inverted cones were printed. A wind turbine was printed for Ecology, the solar system was printed for Earth Science and tyrosine was printed for Chemistry. Tinkercad software was used to create three of the designs (the inverted cones, the wind turbine and the solar system) apart from tyrosine. The stl files for the amino acid was from the public domain. The stl file used to print the Sierpinski triangle on this welcome page was also from the public domain.

    Situated Learning as a Constructivist Learning Theory
    Obilade, Titilola T. (Virginia Tech, 2012-11-30)
    The students are undergraduate students from different continents and have contrasting interpretations of plagiarism. They have similarities in that they are all taking the class on plagiarism. They would need computers with internet connections. The learners are all students of journalism at Virginia Tech. However, they all have knowledge of vocabulary that is common to Virginia Tech. Words like hokie and hokie passport are peculiar to Virginia Tech. In the online class, they are all speaking their thoughts out loud through their reflections, the comments and feedbacks from the instructor and fellow students. They are familiar with the use of Scholar, the log-in process and the use of the hokie passport. They are given four case studies to analyze. In this way, their cognition is continuous through the use of repeated scenarios of plagiarism.
