ONL – Learning in community

Posted on December 5, 2021December 5, 2021 by Halina Budis

It was a very interesting topic. I realized that I must have never experienced community learning the way it was presented in the webinar and by my PBL colleagues.Learning in a group has always been about assigning tasks for each participant, but these…

Topic 4 Reflection

Posted on December 5, 2021 by Anita Axesol Greis

Blind of own thoughts – Dazzled by consciousness returning In my workplace we often used blended learning (pre-recorded videos, quizzes, lectures with teacher in room/by link, practical exercises, seminars, individual/group exam, verbal/written exam and so on) and I like it because I think it reflects a professional nurse work. An example: “Based on a learning,Fortsätt läsa “Topic 4 Reflection”

Community Building in the Classroom

Posted on December 5, 2021 by Verily Tan

How wonderful it is to chance on an excellent resource! And this I did on community building in the classroom. I am cognizant of the Community of Inquiry (cite) model that is used to design blended learning. Here are the seven principles behind the model (Garrison, 2017, p. 112): 1) Plan for the creation of … Continue reading Community Building in the Classroom

Social Learning

Posted on December 5, 2021 by Verily Tan

I came across the idea of connectivism (Siemens, 2004) many years ago in a graduate class. In this topic, I am reviewing the definition. Connectivism suggests that learning is a social connected process: 1. learning as a network forming process 2. networked learning involves forming conceptual connections 3. networked learning through external social spaces (social … Continue reading Social Learning

Topic 4: What’s in a design?

Posted on December 5, 2021June 18, 2022 by Kirsty Dunnett

In many cases, things designed for one purpose can serve another quite well, albeit with some adjustment or modification. This is how old warehouses and factories – especially, in the places I am most familiar with, cotton factories – become offices an…

Designs for Learning – an craft or science?

Posted on December 5, 2021 by Teltales

“robots” by jmorgan is licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0 My primary degree is psychology, and I recall during my undergraduate years a strong emphasis on it as a scientific discipline, with all of the accompanying rigour. The mantra that we need to ensure evidence is robust, valid, reliable, reproducible, that we are a serious discipline, …

Meitheal – a note on collaboration in postdigital times

Posted on December 5, 2021 by Teltales

In times past, for hard cultivation work – planting, growing, ploughing and harvesting- you needed your neighbours. Saving hay, turf cutting, crops or any complex labour-intensive farming work relied on a community response to be successfully completed. This collective response is known in Irish as a meitheal. Neighbours reciprocated to one other’s social need, and …

Online learning

I definitely agree that a online course as we see them right now during Covid most often does not resemble a good example for a online learning and teaching [1].

Design for online and blended learning

Posted on December 3, 2021December 3, 2021 by Agneta Hedenström

Even though we did well during the pandemic, switching from campus-based lectures to online lectures there is a lot of challenges in transforming learning activities from a campus course to an online course. Most of lectures were just transcribed…

Reflection 3: Collaborative Learning

Posted on December 3, 2021 by Lazarus Fotoh

In this reflection, I chose to focus on a practical case of online collaborative learning in my problem-based learning (PBL) group. Before attending this module, we mainly used the networked-based perspective in the PBL group. However, since attending the module on collaborative learning, we have adopted more of a collaborative learning approach than a networked […]

Teaching in the New Normal

Posted on December 2, 2021January 21, 2022 by Yee Ching Chong

I think it is an understatement to say that the global pandemic has forcibly ushered us into a new era of education and communication, a lot of which is characterised by the great migration of learning onto online platforms. I have not personally …

Topic 4: Learning Design

Posted on December 2, 2021 by Irshaad Gangat-Duvenage

This Topic was my favourite because not only do I lecture I write study guides and load course content on to the Moodle LMS. By learning the different models it became clear that there is no concrete right or wrong way of doing learning design. Facilitating this task was a breeze thanks to Dr FionaContinue reading “Topic 4: Learning Design”
