All great things come to an end…..

Posted on by Patrik Holm

When a colleague tiped me of the ONL I just had a quick look and shrug my shoulders and said “Shure, why not?”. I was also about to plan for a new online course so it fitted me quite perfect. I registered and then actually forgot about it.   Then suddenly it was time to […]

“Summa kardemumma” (that is “sum of cardamom”)

Posted on by Linda Beckman

I am filled with both happiness as well as sadnass as this 12-weeks journey comes to an end. Happiness because now I will have unlimited with time to do other stuff (sure), and ofcourse because I have learned a bunch of new pedagogical approaches, and lastly becuase I have met a super interesting group with […]

10-year truths

Posted on by Linda Beckman

This topic 4 was, to me, very interesting and hands on. Our group decided to do a time-line over a course (similar to thsi OLN-course) and visualize different moments and activities from start to end following the 5 stage model by Salmon and some guiding principles in  Vaughan (2013). With more time, this could really […]

Negative? Me? No!?!

Posted on by Patrik Holm

The past two weeks has been both uplifting and reflective. When studying both the “Five Stage Model” [Salmon 2013] and the “Community of Inquiry” (CoI) [Vaughan 2103] my teacher self has been confirmed and I realize that I am doing much right in my online teaching, but there are also very much room for improvements, […]

“go out and collaborate”

Posted on by Linda Beckman

One of the best things with this course is that I rememeber how it was to be a student again. This only will improve my teacher skills in terms of greater empathy for the students. It is really interesting how I require my students to work collaborative without reflecting on collaboration, as discussed by Kearsley […]

This got me thinking……

Posted on by Patrik Holm

When thinking back on my years in different levels of education there’s always been an obvious preconception from teachers that everyone knows how to collaborate to solve a group task. Later as a teacher, I too took this for granted, never giving it much thought. The result, both in my own education and amongst my […]

Obstacles and possibilities with open learning

Posted on by Cecilia Hellekant

During the two weeks of topic 2: Open Learning – Sharing and Openness, my group and I have had interesting discussions about the possibilities and dangers with open resources. Most of us believe that openness is very positive, as you can take part of many kinds of different open resources; education, articles, books, illustrations, codes … Continue reading Obstacles and possibilities with open learning →

OPEN LEARNING – sharing and openness (Topic 2)

Posted on by Marie-Louise Eriksson

During these last weeks I have been overwhelmed by the mass of shared feelings, ideas, tools and experiences on the ONL192 blogs. I have only just begun reading and taking part and is finding it totally wonderful (and a bit stressful). Besides from discussing different definitions of open education/open pedagogy/open resources we have been focusing […]

Openness…..Why?

Posted on by Patrik Holm

So the second topic of ONL is Open learning. Hm…when I first start to think about it I consider both myself and my colleges quit open. But then I realize that we are open towards each other, within the institution but not with the outside world really. It’s no big deal sharing material and lectures […]

So, during topic 2 I have dived especially into the world of MOOC and open learning eductaion. My previous experience of MOOCs from a teacher perspective is limited but I have joined a hand ful MOOCs on my own in the role of a student. My main purpose was to get inspired to improve my […]
