Reflection on Topic 3 Posted on December 18, 2020 by Malin Lindahl Coming from a social constructionist perspective on learning, collaborative work for students is given. Or at least group learning processes of different kinds. What does collaborative learning mean in the online context, that is not also true for collaborative learning processes in the face to face environment? Brindley et.al (2009) stresses the importance for teachersContinue reading “Reflection on Topic 3”

Digital Tools and Active Student Learning Posted on December 18, 2020 by Brian Davies It’s December 2020 and I have just completed the course Open Networked Learning (a course aimed at people working in education, interested in exploring possibilities and recommended practices of using digital tools in education).

Teacher agency in building social presence: Time-suck or time-hack? Posted on December 17, 2020 by Rebecca Laycock Pedersen In my department, many of the researchers engage in design research. As a result, when we are designing something new, we often start wit…
Topic 5: Lessons learnt – future practice Posted on December 17, 2020 by Zachary Taylor For me, the most surprising, most heartening, and most frightening realization I’ve had through my participation in ONL, is online collaboration and learning is not that bad. This is probably a realization that many people have come to during the Corona Virus pandemic. I was getting there and then ONL really put the final nailContinue reading “Topic 5: Lessons learnt – future practice”
Topic 4: Design for online and blended learning Posted on December 17, 2020 by Zachary Taylor I teach and electromagnetic theory course during the fall every year. The course is best described as “intermediate” and is compulsory for my department’s masters degree program. The class consists of applications of mathematics to specific problems in electrical engineering. The best teaching of this subject I have experienced is where an engaging personality writesContinue reading “Topic 4: Design for online and blended learning”
Topic 3: Learning in communities – networked collaborative learning Posted on December 17, 2020 by Zachary Taylor Some reflection for topic 3. I find all three suggestions interesting and relevant to my own experience so I will respond to all three: An occasion when real collaborative learning took place, that moved your own thinking forward One occasion that really struck me happened during my postdoc in the context of a research manuscript.Continue reading “Topic 3: Learning in communities – networked collaborative learning”
The end… Posted on December 16, 2020December 16, 2020 by Marcus Stensmyr Our last session was to summarize what we have learned. I think the most important aspect I take with me from this experience is that online learning works well…and it can be fun fun and as engaging as on-site learning. In the beginning I was m…
Lessons learnt – future practice from ONL202 Posted on December 16, 2020 by Mohammad Rajiullah Frankly speaking, not so long ago my idea of online learning was barely an extension of regular learning with the change of medium. COVID-19 showed me why I was wrong. I had my first online teaching before summer and I felt for the first time something is missing. Keeping student engaged appeared to be a … Continue reading “Lessons learnt – future practice from ONL202”
End of the ONL reflections; lessons learnt and the next step Posted on December 16, 2020 by Christina Sakellariou Three months after the first ONL meeting, the strongest memory I have of it was that although it was totally my cup of tea in terms of topic and multiculturalism (having spent a third of my life in the UK, it feels very natural working with people from all over the world), it also seemedContinue reading “End of the ONL reflections; lessons learnt and the next step”
Topic 4:Design for Online and Blended Learning Posted on December 16, 2020 by Kinaz Al Aytouni The fourth topic concerned on how to design a blended learning program.Blended learning is defined as the blend of two “face-to-face” and “online” learning modes or as described in [1], it is defined as “the organic integration of thoughtfully selected and complementary face-to-face and online approaches”. We discussed three models, namely the five-stage model[2] ,Continue reading “Topic 4:Design for Online and Blended Learning”
