PBL group 11 – Open Networked Learning

PBL and ONL

Posted on December 8, 2019 by Donna Stanton

ONL PBL group work has given me so much more than I could imagine or hope to give back in return, even though that was my original motivation for joining — sharing my experience as a teacher and instructional design student with my PBL group. I’d have to say that the most salient learning for … Continue reading “PBL and ONL”

Topic 5

Posted on December 8, 2019 by Katarina Rolfhamre

Thank you all for an intensive, inspiring Journey! One of the most important thing I’ve learnt during this excellent course is to Read Through all the introduction text and films… as I was “thrown in” short before the course started, I missed a lot of text, films and readings. I didn’t really understand what toFortsätt läsa “Topic 5”

The Final Dance

Posted on December 7, 2019 by Anya Siddiqi

Topic 5 realised Wow, I thought as I began to write is this really the last blog post I need to write? Is the twelve-week journey actually over? But as the anonymous quotation above reminds us, no, the journey continues on this path of life-long learning, but now the path seems a little firmer andContinue reading “The Final Dance”

Topic 5: A pleasant journey towards becoming a digital resident. Thanks ONL!

Posted on December 7, 2019 by Saad Mubeen

Taking an Online Networked Learning (ONL) course can be quite a challenge and an overwhelming experience for an ONL rookie, at least in the beginning of the course. This is a brief story of experiences of one such ONL-rookie :-). Let me start by saying that although this course was pretty heavy in terms ofContinue reading “Topic 5: A pleasant journey towards becoming a digital resident. Thanks ONL!”

Posted on December 5, 2019 by Katarina Rolfhamre

Design for online and blended learning In topic 4 our group 11 used the Saad’s Fork-joint method. After discussing the scenario we had some question-based smaller group discussions.

Have you ever heard or perhaps even remember that song ‘I Can See Clearly Now’ originally sung and written by Johnny Nash (in 1973)? You can listen above if you’d like to hear it, but to save you some time, I repeat the main lyrics below: I can see clearly now the rain is goneIContinue reading “I can see clearly now the rain is gone…sorta”

Topic 4: Emotional Presence in Collaborative Learning

Posted on November 29, 2019 by Saad Mubeen

This blog explores the effects of emotions on collaborative learning in the Problem Based Learning groups. In this regard, the blog revisits the hierarchical iterative fork-join collaboration model and superimposes this model with the effect of emotions. Let’s start by looking at the vital prerequisites to a successful educational experience in higher education, which isContinue reading “Topic 4: Emotional Presence in Collaborative Learning”

Topic 3 The “pioneer in unfamiliar terrain” PNL and Online (OL) Collaboration

Posted on November 17, 2019 by Katarina Rolfhamre

In our PBL-group 11+6- my Learning community for the moment, we try to follow the FISH document for Problem Based Learning- we read the scenario together, brainstorm (which is more like a mix of questions, opinions, experiences etc- all in one…), then take individual time to figure out personal questions until next OL-meeting when weFortsätt läsa “Topic 3 The “pioneer in unfamiliar terrain” PNL and Online (OL) Collaboration”

“A cord of three strands is not quickly broken”

Posted on November 17, 2019 by Anya Siddiqi

One of my favourite books is the Holy Bible, I kid you not. You want to find immutable and eternal guidelines on how to live your life, make important decisions, and find out why you are alive? You’ll definitely find them there. And believe it or not, there are guidelines there that directly tie intoContinue reading ““A cord of three strands is not quickly broken””

Topic 3: Learning in Communities – Thoughts on Effective Collaborative Learning

Posted on November 12, 2019 by Saad Mubeen

Learning in modern digitalized world depends not only on obtaining knowledge personally from non-digital (e.g, non-digital books) and digital sources (e.g., internet), but also on applying the knowledge that is acquired from other individuals and groups by means of collaboration. In this way, knowledge is created within the groups by means of collaboration and isContinue reading “Topic 3: Learning in Communities – Thoughts on Effective Collaborative Learning”

BY ANYA S. NON-COMMERCIAL SHAREALIKE!

Posted on November 2, 2019 by Anya Siddiqi

And so the revolution begins! What a few weeks: my boundaries and borders have been stretched, and thanks to all the fantastic material we’ve listened to, watched, discussed, pondered, and prepared, I know that my digital identity and understanding of hitherto so many vaguely understood new winds have shifted! This has also been a toughContinue reading “BY ANYA S. NON-COMMERCIAL SHAREALIKE!”

TOPIC 2

Posted on October 31, 2019 by Katarina Rolfhamre

Open Learning – Sharing and Openness So far I have felt overloaded and stressed, but gradually I learn more to handle all “technical” things around, so it takes less time, which gives me more time to really do the course readings, even if I read the wrong chapter 10 in Bates (should have been 11…) […]
