Is it possible to go or be open in online education?

Posted on October 26, 2020 by Mats Ahlskog

Openness and sharing are two important factors for online education and the first question that always should be the addressed is the “why” question. Why shall we go online? Why shall we be open and share? With this a starting point there are several aspects to reflect upon. Since I don’t have an academic/teaching background […]

Openness in education and in life

Posted on October 25, 2020 by Maria Höglund

What kind of person are you? The one who openly share everything in your life, where personal and professional and private smoothly melt together in a life story and is said out loud without hesitation? Or are you the type that do not want to tell other people what you think and feel and maybeContinue reading “Openness in education and in life”

Small steps (again)…

Posted on October 22, 2020 by Kathrin Zeller

Topic 2 reflections… While writing this, the two weeks period for Topic 2 “Open Learning – sharing and openness” in the ONL202 course has not yet finished, but as I have some time right now, I thought to use this blog to sort some of my thoughts. If Topic 1 “Digital literacies” felt like aContinue reading “Small steps (again)…”

Open learning is not black-and-white

Posted on October 21, 2020 by Ting Hui

I had initially assumed that the second topic of the ONL202 course, Open Learning—Sharing and Openness, would be a relatively straightforward one. But as we went through the introductory material and began our first group discussions, I started to realise that the topic was, for lack of a better word, really open… The first aspect… Continue reading Open learning is not black-and-white

My first blog post-Topic 1

Posted on October 16, 2020 by Kathrin Zeller

Now the 2 weeks of the first ONL202 topic “Digital literacies” have almost passed! The work in our PBL group has been fun and rewarding, and it feels like I have known the group for longer than I actually have. Exploring the topic has certainly taken some time but the activities of these past weeksContinue reading “My first blog post-Topic 1”

Topic 1: Online participation & digital literacies

Posted on October 15, 2020 by Patricia Saenz-Mendez

To be honest, this topic has surprised me in many ways! I did not know anything about digital literacies, though I thought I was part of the digital world. But I was almost completely wrong… A great exercise for you to be as surprised as me is to create your own “Visitor and resident map”.Continue reading “Topic 1: Online participation & digital literacies”

Am I digitally literate???

Posted on October 12, 2020 by Maria Höglund

What does it actually mean to be digitally literate? I have to start there because I noticed that I have been using the words during the last two weeks without actually defining them. So, I am sorry, but I did just what the students would do. I went looking for answers on wikipedia :). AccordingContinue reading “Am I digitally literate???”

Experience from online education, social media and knowledge development

Posted on October 9, 2020 by Mats Ahlskog

Digitalization is an ongoing process in our society and David Withe discuss usage of digital and social media from a generation perspective as well as from a Visitors and Residents perspective. In my case, I belong to the Visitors side, which means that I’m not use social media and don’t’ want to leave digital traces […]

Hello world! A new ONL blogger is born.

Posted on October 5, 2020 by Mats Ahlskog

Today something happened that I couldn’t imagine could happen. I have created a blog, and this is my first post. How could this happen since I’m allergic to everything concerning social media? Well, it’s because of the Open Network Learning course that is given this fall (ONL202). Creating and writing a blog is mandatory in […]

During this important week the focus is to to connect with peers and facilitators and to form groups. Hej! Week 2 (21-27 September 2020) is over and we are now facing Topic 1.

Why Zeta 6 and Uncertainty Principle?

Posted on October 2, 2020 by Patricia Saenz-Mendez

I was an Organic Chemist, actually still I am. My very first approach to research was in this field, many many years ago. I did my Master in Medicinal Chemistry, synthesizing heterocycles aiming to find an active compound against solid tumors. Carbon atom (Zeta 6) was present in my everyday life! During my Master studies,Continue reading “Why Zeta 6 and Uncertainty Principle?”

My very first post

Posted on October 2, 2020 by Patricia Saenz-Mendez

I started this blog as a mandatory task for the course Open Networked Learning (ONL202). I always wanted to have a blog, but I never started it. I am either lazy or scared (probably both!). I will focus the first posts around learning, teaching, science and technology. I am really interested in these topics andContinue reading “My very first post”
