The Power of Community– networked collaborative learning

Posted on May 13, 2021 by Keshnie Govender

“Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much” – Helen Keller. At a glance one can denote that the needs and expectations of current day learners have changed dramatically. Learning communities,are both physical and digital connections. In South Africa the cost of education is getting higher, alas learners are also learningContinue reading “The Power of Community– networked collaborative learning”

How are you, really?

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Andrea Korens

On Monday I attended a workshop: “Courageous Conversations” hosted by the East-West Center in Hawaii. “Leaders are often called upon to facilitate meaningful, civil, and sometimes difficult conversations” – and these courageous conversations are more important than ever in an increasingly polarized and divisive society. I see courageous conversations as bridge-builders; the opposite of shamingContinue reading “How are you, really?”

Topic 4: Design for online and blended learning

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Nils Troselius

The themes touched on in this topic seemed a rather logical conclusion of the course matter. It connected many of the concepts and approaches covered in to more practical applications. To me many of the approaches covered during this last theme have been new such as Community of Inquiries as well as different approaches in … Continue reading Topic 4: Design for online and blended learning

Topic 5. End and beginning.

“Endings are beginnings- if we allow them to be” Laura Day. This is the last post that I am going to write belonging to the ONL course. This week is the final week for the course and it is time to reflect upon what we have achieved during these months. Time flies. It seems thatContinue reading “Topic 5. End and beginning.”

Reflections on ONL

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Terese Sjölund

What did I learn during the Open Network Learning course? I wan’t to share tips that I find useful for upcoming courses, both on-line, in classroom or in blended learning. I also learned how to do a meme, as you can see from my picture. Prior to a course you should engage the students byContinue reading “Reflections on ONL”

Topic 5 – Lessons learnt and future practice

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Laura Cox

The learning experience from this course, and specifically the reflection on these topics, has made me think about the complexities, strengths and challenges of online networked learning in much more depth, as well as their related offline counterparts. What surprised me most was how much these topics were relevant for not only my pedagogical work,Continue reading “Topic 5 – Lessons learnt and future practice”

Topic 5: Lessons learnt – future practice

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Christina Fjaeraa Alfredsson

Final post So, we are coming to an end of the whole ONL211 journey, and as with most journeys my feelings are a bit divided: Yes, finally! No, already?! I am so grateful that I signed up for this course and participated and I feel that my newly acquired knowledge is like a huge chest … Fortsätt läsa “Topic 5: Lessons learnt – future practice”

Reflections on the course

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Janne Nyström

When I signed up for the ONL211 course I had not really any clear idea of what I was in for. To be honest, I was expecting something a little bit more traditional and something certainly more boring. At some times also something a bit less time consuming, although I think I managed to balanceContinue reading “Reflections on the course”

The Final Problem

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Kadriye Pekacar

For my final blog post for ONL211, I have chosen the title of the last episode of my favourite Sherlock Holmes’ tv series. Therefore, no problem does exist in this blog post, but a few appreciative words. The most important thing that I have learned is how to collaborate in an online environment. We, the … Continue reading The Final Problem

Learning from failure…?

Posted on May 12, 2021 by Kadriye Pekacar

The last two weeks of ONL not only provided me with theories of online and blended learning, but also helped to self-reflect on my teaching practices during this ’emergency’ teaching. During the last year, I have frequently heard that we are not actually teaching online, but it is rather an ’emergency remote teaching’ (ERT) . … Continue reading Learning from failure…?

Reflections about Topic 5

Posted on May 11, 2021 by Anna Aldenius

Before I started the course, digital learning was to use zoom until things return to normal mode. Now online and blended learning are here to stay and then it is not enough to be able to handle zoom. The course has broadened my views a lot. I now have important basic knowledge to be ableFortsätt läsa “Reflections about Topic 5”
