Collaborative learning topic 3

Posted on April 26, 2022 by Linn Hongell

I have worked as a teacher for over 20 years and I have as long worked on getting students collaborating. During the first 17 years it was collaboration in class but since 2020 it has been much more online focused. Online has not been a major learning platform for my university before the pandemic and […]

Topic 2

Posted on April 25, 2022 by Ares Gomez

Open Learning – Sharing and Openness Topic 2 was all about what do we think about openness. Openness is defined by The City University of New York as “the principle of freedom of access by all interested persons to the underlying data, to the processes, and to the final results” (https://www.cuny.edu/research/research-compliance/sponsored/guidance/post-award/openness/) And then, Bronwyn Hegarty […]

Digital litteracies – short reflection

Posted on April 25, 2022 by Ann-Marie Rosenqvist-Berg

Driving to northern Finland for holiday with my daughter. She’s playing with my phone, reading what me and my friends have been posting in one of my Whatsapp-groups, laughing at our “middle-age ways” of writing. Soon she´s writing in my group and making a joke about writing the way she would with her friends, finding […]

ONL221 Topic 2: Open Learning – Sharing and Openness

Posted on April 25, 2022 by Shelley Guyton

This has been a fascinating topic. In our PBL group discussions, we have considered open learning as a concept or aspiration or even fear from multiple perspectives–institutional, teacher, learner and more. We also emphasized the directions in conversations on open learning that split into more pedagogical focus and more social justice oriented focus. While my […]

Reflections on Topic 3: Learning in Communities – what is true "collaboration"?

Posted on April 25, 2022April 25, 2022 by Swati jhaveri

If I had to describe my approach to ‘collaborative’ learning prior to embarking on this ONL course, I would say that I had a ‘divide and conquer’ approach. I would prioritise efficiency and the need to get the task done over the broader benefits to be …

Striving for collaborative community in Science (reflection on topic 3)

Posted on April 24, 2022April 24, 2022 by Anja Schmidt-Christensen

In this weeks topic 3 we have been trying to understand values and differences of learning networks and communities. I like the simple explanation of Henry Mintzberg when he says: ”If you want to understand the difference between a network…

Topic 3: Learning in communities – networked collaborative learning

Posted on April 24, 2022 by Michael Försth

This topic is, to me, the absolutely most interesting so far in this great course. One week into the topic I realize that we, the teachers, or at least me, take a lot for granted when we initiate collaboration assignments for our students, that is group works. This might be a mistake and I’m very […]

Topic 1: Online participation and digital literacies

Posted on April 22, 2022 by Anna Småros

Who in the teaching community has not heard of the theory of “digital natives” and “digital immigrants”, as proposed by Marc Prensky (2001)? Personally, I must admit that I had not read the original essay by Prensky. I had come into contact with Prensky’s concepts, however, especially that of digital natives, as his ideas had … Continue reading Topic 1: Online participation and digital literacies

Topic 1: Online participation and digital literacies (14th – 27th Mar)

Posted on April 22, 2022 by Flavia Narita

The first topic of ONL linked online participation with digital identity. David White’s webinar on visitors and residents was very interesting and interactive! I had already given up using Prensky’s terminology of digital ‘natives’ and ‘immigrants’ because I had seen both young people not being ‘fluent’ with technology and older people managing it very well. […]

Topic 2: Open Learning – Sharing and Openness (28th March – 10th April)

Posted on April 22, 2022 by Flavia Narita

Selen and I were the moderators of topic 2, so we had a quick meeting with Erik and David on Monday morning (8:00 am, Brazilian time). The clocks had changed in Europe for the summertime, so we are now 5 hours apart! Attending the webinars, then, became more difficult for me. I watched Maha Bali’s […]
