Lessons learnt – reflection of ONL192

Posted on December 9, 2019 by Jonas Tana

The most important things I have learned during ONL course are related to me as a learner, working in groups, and studying online courses. Of course, many new aspects of openness have also emerged, such as the quite difficult concepts of digital visitors/residents, open education and blended learning. But as said, more has been related … Continue reading Lessons learnt – reflection of ONL192 →

Topic 4: Design for online and blended learning

Posted on December 9, 2019 by Jonas Tana

The theme for week 4 was to shift the focus from participant to supporter/facilitator of an online course.

Concluding all the discussions and reflections our group engaged in during the first topic on online participation and digital literacies would result in a short novel.

In our group we discussed and reflected that labeling is in this … Continue reading Reflections of week 1 →

My thoughts on digital – less is more

Posted on October 3, 2019 by Jonas Tana

I’m a digital visitor, with early experience of the use of digital tools. My first memory of a computer was when I visited a friends fathers workplace at Helsinki University, and we got to see the computer they had there. This was maybe 1985(ish), when I was 6(ish). Later on as computers became more common, … Continue reading My thoughts on digital – less is more →
