Design for online and blended learning

Posted on January 10, 2020 by Diego Andrade

Hello! We are reaching the final stretch of the course and, despite so many weeks in contact with new knowledge, I feel that with each topic I have much more to learn. As I mentioned in the initial posts, this course uses an active teaching methodology in PBL (problem based learning) format. This means thatContinuar lendo “Design for online and blended learning”

Topic 4 – Design for online and blended learning

Posted on January 9, 2020 by Karin Bergman

At the moment I only teach campus courses but I have experience with online courses as well, but that was some years ago, when technology wasn’t as good as it is now, and also I think that I lacked knowledge of the opportunities given by technology. During this topic I have read up on theFortsätt läsa “Topic 4 – Design for online and blended learning”

Topic 5

Posted on January 6, 2020 by Jan-Anders Ray

I think the main merit of participating in the course actually has been to take part in a structured online course entity, and through that becoming familiar with tools that can be useful when having to structure and run online and blended learning courses in the future. As this will be expected from us byContinue reading “Topic 5”

Being Open: Drawing parallels from the Coffee House Model

Posted on January 5, 2020 by Kiruthika Ragupathi

What does ‘being open’ mean and what is its value? Does the value lie in open content? Does the value lie in the interactions that occur through discussions? Does the value lie in openness created within social places, and not always confined to an ins…

The end of the beginning

Posted on December 23, 2019 by Peter Friis Johansson

After working with the ONL 192 course for a full three months it’s time to sum up my thoughts and lessons learnt. It’s been an exciting ride: meeting new friends in our PBL group, trying our way in problem based learning, struggling with how to make good use of digital tools, crazy scheduling to makeFortsätt läsa “The end of the beginning”

Is my PLN a collaborative learning environment?

Posted on December 20, 2019 by Lisa-Marie Teubler

Watching Kay Odonne’s interesting lecture on Personal Learning Networks for this week’s topic, I wondered: How collaborative is my PLN? And, on a more basic level, what exactly does my PLN look like? For the most part, I try to draw on many different sources of knowledge during day to day practices. I read the … Continue reading “Is my PLN a collaborative learning environment?”

How can they create more commitment in students and in which way do they help the course to be completed by a majority of participants rather than a few?

Learning through friendship

Posted on December 20, 2019 by Wibke Straube

This entry is part of the course ONL192 (topic 3 Learning in Communities) Online teaching and learning can be a very distanced, detached experience – high drop out rates and incomplete assignments haunt the online learning environments in many conventional distance courses. Taking this course, the ONL 192, helped me to understand why this happens … Continue reading Learning through friendship

Topic 4

Posted on December 19, 2019 by Jan-Anders Ray

This topic got off to to a slow start for me, as I was on exchange at a partner university during the first week, thus missing out on the meeting held then, and thus finding it difficult to allocate time to contribute much during that week. Additionally, our group had by now shrunk to threeContinue reading “Topic 4”
