Posted on May 19, 2021 by Andrea Korens

On brand, I’m running late. But my recent experience with Open Networked Learning in my PBL group has been on my mind.

Surprising, rich and frustrating This one-line learning journey focusing on collaborative and blended learning possibilities through a problem-based learning approach has been both surprising, rich and frustrating. It has broadened my perspectives on what is possible to do in terms of using a range of technically mediating programs and tools, and a deeper sense ofFortsätt läsa “Blending into online learning – streaming an extended epistemology”

Topic 3: Learning in Communities – Networked Collaborative Learning

Posted on May 18, 2021 by Yogeeta Singh

Networks have a profound impact on how we learn and in this topic I have learned what a Personal Learning Network is, where everyone is a learner, teacher and a contributor. We are able to build a deep support system of colleagues, mentors and coaches by connecting meaningfully and authentically. A personal learning network meansContinue reading “Topic 3: Learning in Communities – Networked Collaborative Learning”

Personal Learning Network in a Pandemic

Posted on May 18, 2021 by Finlay MacGregor

My personal learning network suddenly and unexpectedly became exclusively digital due to the pandemic and this must be a fairly common experience. This got me wondering – how has my personal learning network been affected by a year of covid restrictions? For me, this switch to the digital hasn’t posed a problem in terms of […]

“Ends are not bad things, they just mean that something else is about to begin. And there are many things that don’t really end, anyway, they just begin again in a new way.”-C. JoyBell C.

Blended learning

Posted on May 18, 2021May 18, 2021 by Ossi Kaario

Blended learning is mixed up in my mind into active learning. By active learning, I understand giving the students something ‘more’ than teacher talking alone for 1.5 hours. But blended learning (BL) is actually about blending face-to-face and online t…

Topic 5 – The deep future of online learning

Posted on May 17, 2021May 19, 2021 by Gunnar KarlssonLeave a Comment

A topic not directly addressed in the course is the depth of learning for the students. I am not sure that better engagement necessarily leads to deeper learning of a topic; it might, but it could also lead to, well, greater engagement, meaning more time spent on the course. Not all learning activities lead to […]

Design for online and blended learning

“The most profound words will remain unread unless you can keep the learner engaged. You can’t see their eyes to know if they got it so … say it, show it, write it, demo it and link it to an activity.” – James Bates Without a doubt the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a significantContinue reading “Design for online and blended learning”
