Leap of faith? Posted on December 10, 2019 by Marja Elonheimo Our Open Networked Learning (ONL) course has come to an end and it is time to summarize the journey. Now it feels like we just got started and found our way as a group how to operate on it and I got used to the rhythm of the course. Earlier I used to be quiteContinue reading “Leap of faith?”
The end of the road…or just the beginning? Posted on December 9, 2019 by Susan Gamache To me the most important part on the ONL course has been the process itself. I have been familiar with PBL on a theoretical level for a long time, but I haven’t really had any opportunities to engage in an actual PBL process myself before this course. The course was really time consuming and I […]
The journey continues: lessons learned & future practice Posted on December 9, 2019 by Hanna Liisa Hakala Since this is my last ONL blog, I would first like to thank the organizers for the useful research papers and other materials on the different topic areas on this course! These have definitely pushed my own thinking forward the most together with experiencing the course design and its facilitation first hand as well asContinue reading “The journey continues: lessons learned & future practice”
Topic 4 – Learning how to design and facilitate online and blended learning! Posted on December 5, 2019 by Hanna Liisa Hakala For the past two weeks, I have been exploring the Community of Inquiry framework (see Figure 1. above) for important pedagogical aspects to be considered when creating good blended and online learning environments. I have learned about the importance of scaffolding and facilitation and that supporting student learning through them is critical when providing aContinue reading “Topic 4 – Learning how to design and facilitate online and blended learning!”

Practice meets theory & presence develops from presence Posted on December 2, 2019 by Heli Dahlin Dear reader, The topic this week, Design for online and blended learning, relates to a current development project that I am involved in at my institution. This autumn, I have been streamlining and updating a blended course on Academic Writing together with a colleague, as part of a wider collection and network of online learningContinue reading “Practice meets theory & presence develops from presence”
The art of designing online learning Posted on December 2, 2019 by Marja Elonheimo During the past two weeks we have divid deeper into online learning and how to plan it. Until now have talked about more abstract level what is online learning and collaborative learning but in this topic we had to get more concrete in the terms of what does it all mean. In the beginning ofContinue reading “The art of designing online learning”
Best practices for positive student experience in an online course Posted on December 1, 2019 by Susan Gamache “Any teacher who thinks they can be replaced by Youtube, SHOULD be replaced by Youtube”. This is a statement I heard someone say at a conference years ago (can’t remember which conference or who said it), but I think it has a point to it. To me this phrase implies that designing for blended and […]
Connected and learning to collaborate Posted on November 18, 2019 by Hanna Liisa Hakala The past two weeks have certainly been useful for learning more about learning in communities and networked collaborative learning! In the two videos PLNs Theory and Practice Part 1 & PLNs Theory and Practice Part 2, Kay Oddone (2019) states that the learner is at the center of their own Personal/ Professional Learning Networks (PLNs)Continue reading “Connected and learning to collaborate”
