The structure of the ONL-course itself will continue to influence my practice. The great benefit of PBL and group learning was an eye opener. Although I have worked a lot with group-based processes before in my teaching, it became clear to me all the benefits that anyone can achieve from collaborative learning. No matter whatContinue reading “Topic 5 reflection at the end of ONL”

My question to Marty Cleveland-Innes on the padlet wasn’t answered. Therefore, I take the opportunity to use the question as a starting point for this reflection for topic 4. The question rose in my mind during reading the course literature for this topic. After experiencing about 10 months of digital distance teaching, synchronous didactic interactionContinue reading “Blended learning dynamics”

I often find that even physical teaching needs to connect to awareness of other than human agents in learning situations. That even in the studio where students come with some preunderstanding of art and art pedagogy as something else thanContinue reading “Digital and material literacy?”

How to decide what kind of voice to use in the blog? Should it be strictly academic? Or maybe more reflective? I think what would be most beneficial for the learning process is a mix of both. Hopefully this approach can be useful and maybe more interesting for you to read? And who are you?Continue reading “Welcome to the blog!”
