“go out and collaborate”

Posted on November 20, 2019 by Linda Beckman

One of the best things with this course is that I rememeber how it was to be a student again. This only will improve my teacher skills in terms of greater empathy for the students. It is really interesting how I require my students to work collaborative without reflecting on collaboration, as discussed by Kearsley […]

Posted on November 20, 2019 by Liv Lofthus

During the two weeks of topic 3 I have reflected a lot upon the term collaborative learning- all kinds of collaboration, really.

Open pedagogy in the ONL course

Posted on October 28, 2019 by Liv Lofthus

The topic for the last two weeks has been really interesting. Openness in education is so important both for learners and teachers. It makes education accessible for more people, and the sharing of good Open Educational Resources is a great way to do this. According to the Hewlett Foundation (https://hewlett.org/strategy/open-educational-resources/) OERs are “teaching, learning and […]
