Open Learning – Sharing and Openness

Posted on November 1, 2021 by Martin Olsson

Finding good free materials for teaching within the framework of my field is difficult. I teach in emergency care. I need pictures / films as an illustration for presentations or as a starting point in scenario used in seminars or examinations. Pictures/films that show different types of injury’s, cooperation at the scene of the accident,Fortsätt läsa “Open Learning – Sharing and Openness”

Open Learning – Sharing is Caring?

Posted on October 29, 2021 by Johan Lugnet

I found it very interesting to have the PBL group discussions on open learning both in terms of our cultural and social backgrounds and what will happen after the pandemic. After reading some of the blogposts written by other participants in this ONL212-course I realize that we all have different understanding and use of open […]

OERs: Revolutionising teaching and teachers

Posted on October 29, 2021January 20, 2022 by Yee Ching Chong

It was fair to say that most of the people in my PBL group were not familiar with OER and its uses prior to this week. During the first meeting, we started out with really basic questions. What is OER? What constitutes OER? How is OER used in the class…

Topic 2: Is this open?

Posted on October 29, 2021October 29, 2021 by Kirsty Dunnett

This topic was a bit strange for me. Mostly because I was travelling, meeting an awful lot of new people and getting a real introduction to the context of my new job for a large part of the topic. This meant that I could not attend the middle two PBL g…

Open Networked Learning Course (ONL212), Topic 2: Open Learning and the Growing of Plants

Posted on October 27, 2021 by W.L. Cheah

I always thought of ‘open learning’ and ‘open access’ as making educational resources freely available to all online and was thrown completely off balance after hearing Maha Bali speak at our ONL webinar about OER as ‘Self’. Maha Bali and Susan Koseoglu argue for a broader understanding of open educational resource (OER) that goes beyond … Continue reading “Open Networked Learning Course (ONL212), Topic 2: Open Learning and the Growing of Plants “

My answer is simple: YES and NO. I am not confusing you, wait a little bit my explanation and then you understand how simple it is.

Be open! Stay open!

I think nowadays there is nobody that has not heard about openness.

But it is not very well defined what we mean by openness. You have to ask yourself

Born between digital immigrants and natives

Posted on October 26, 2021 by Charlotta Edlund

Reflections on Topic 1 for ONL212 Being born in 1973 I wasn’t exactly born straight into the digital world, neither was I brought up in it. But as a young adult (age of 23) I was thrown into it having to adapt to new technology in different settings being a student. So according to PrenskyContinue reading “Born between digital immigrants and natives”

The Escape (and more…)

Posted on October 26, 2021 by Erica Adlercreutz

This week we have discussed different aspects of openness in education. My group has discussed openness as three overlapping dimensions, Transparency, Engagement and Communication. We have been doing the research on a quite general level, but have not really engaged in much discussion about openness in our personal context. Personally I have participated in severalContinue reading “The Escape (and more…)”

Digital literacies during COVID-19

Posted on October 25, 2021 by Malvina Latifaj

The topic on digital literacies, was a very interesting one, but before reading the literature, and before starting our group discussions, I think I had this “tunnel vision”. I had a very narrow definition of what it meant to have digital literacy skills. To me, it was probably enough, to be able to use technology […]
