Posted on April 30, 2022April 30, 2022 by Nina Venkataraman

One of our group members was asked to share her understanding and experiences about collaboration in a narrative form. The rest of us in the group listened and perhaps tried to understand how close or how far we are from her experiences a…

BP3 – Learning in communities – networked collaborative learning

Posted on April 29, 2022 by Augusto Cannone Falchetto

It is not easy to find a meaningful, coherent, and consistent thought on networked collaborative learning that finds agreement with what I expressed in my previous blog BP2 on Sharing and Openness. I indeed mentioned a sort of encouragement in sharing learning and teaching material in my field of expertise, also due to the lack […]

Groups, sets, networks, communities…why surfing on Instagram is not necessarily social learning.

Posted on April 29, 2022 by Susanne Quintes

For the third topic, learning in communities, networked collaborative learning, again the group work started with trying to define the different terms. What is a group, a set, a network, a community? Are all of us actually a part of all these different types of social constructs? And how do we use them every day […]

Yet again, collaborative learning is essential

Posted on April 29, 2022 by Lejla Islami

When I reflect on my communities and the impact of them in my professional development and learning in general, I realize that I do not follow a lot of people (I am not really active) on social networking sites such as Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc. However, by doing so I never thought I was lacking […]

Technology has become an indispensable tool in education. Its use transcends those learning platforms that organize the teaching content and is now manifested in many digital resources, such as games, apps, learning channels, etc. All of these and many are often associated with “revolutionized and progressive education”. A quick look at any university platform, the […]

Topic 3 Learning in Communities

Posted on April 28, 2022 by Susanna Fabricius

This blog has been inspired by Kay Oddones (2022) webinar on personal learning networks (PLN). I remember someone wise saying that learning only happens when you share it with someone. According to Davis White (20229 Visitors and Residents continuum Networked Learning is at the residents end of the continuum. This makes me reflect where I […]

Collaboration – means or end?

Posted on April 28, 2022 by Johan Högman

Today, collaboration has become something of a buzzword and used almost dogmatic in many professional sectors. All problems should be solved through collaboration. If organizations just could collaborate better and quit continue their ´siloed´ practices, much would be so much better. In public administration (in which I have worked for almost 10 years), sometimes the […]

Nepal and Twitter Thoughts

Posted on April 27, 2022 by Ana Maria Barral

Of my recent Nepal trip with my friend Gizeh, two moments stand out (among many many others). One took place some time April 10, during our crossing of Renjo Pass (5360 m, approx. 17,500 feet).

According to Catherine Cronin (2017), openness in this context refers to four aspects, namely open admission, free of charge, open educational resources (OER) … Continue reading Topic 2: Open Learning – Sharing and Openness
