What remains for me to say? The course demanded more from me than I thought. You quickly get lost in the individual topics because each one is exciting and has so many facets and you always want to know more and more. I got to know some new tools, but I don’t know yet whether […]
It is totally clear that only giving texts, reading them and discuss them in a group is not a very sophisticated design for online learning. An effective design helps to create engaging and interactive learning experiences that support student learning outcomes. So what could it be? PBL is a well known and approved approach. It […]
Imagine participating in a study group or a project with a team of like-minded individuals who are also learning and exploring a topic that you’re interested in (like in ONL). Of course you can learn from the other participants by working together and sharing ideas perhaps leading to a deeper (or another?) understanding. But it […]
As someone who values lifelong learning, the concept of open learning, sharing, and openness resonates deeply with me. I have seen the tremendous impact that these principles can have on my own education and personal growth.

What would you like ChatGPT to do for you, as a learner, educator, leader, friend, family member? What would you NOT want it to do?
With relief and with regret for me, ONL222 came to an end with the final webinar on the 9th of December 2022. Relief because I had been stretched with balancing ONL with my work which was especially demanding towards the end of the semester (with grading final papers, meetings and administrative tasks). Regret because I […]
In Professor Robin Kay’s webinar for Topic 4, I learnt some of the best practices for blended and online course design in order to encourage active learning and deep engagement among students. I encountered new digital tools and methods. For instance, it had not occurred to me to introduce myself to my students through a […]
Topic 3, Learning in communities, kicked off with the webinar given by Kay Oddone, Learning in communities 2022-11-07. I also watched her YouTube video, PLNs Theory and Practice, part 1, in which Kay describes insights from her research on “teachers’ experience of professional learning through personal learning networks (PLNs).” I learnt about networked collaborative learning, the […]
