A critical perspective on online participation and digital literacies

Posted on April 13, 2020 by Shobha

In this post I want to engage with the idea of what it means to participate online, and to unpack the notion of digital literacies. Most media scholars and quite a number of educators are familiar with the work of Henry Jenkins (2006), who coined the t…

Is openness the holy grail of education?

Posted on April 13, 2020 by Ioanna Aslanidou

The principle that education should be open and accessible for everyone is one that many people (and educators) share. I mean, if you don’t believe in openness, why are you in education? An extension of David Wiley’s remark, I wish I could roll my eyes digitally the way he did in his talk. Open educationContinue reading “Is openness the holy grail of education?”

Open Learning – Sharing and Openness

Posted on April 13, 2020 by Pietro Elia Campana

I have really appreciated the introduction to the topic 2 by Kiruthika Ragupathi when she mentioned about re-using online material to increase efficiency [1]. As I have mentioned during the padlet reflection, we as teachers we spent so much time in developing lectures and we could be much more efficient by using someone else lectureContinue reading “Open Learning – Sharing and Openness”

What to do in times of information overload?

Posted on April 13, 2020 by Sophie Ellermann

Openly sharing and learning – Is there a right way to do it? No. Education can happen in a vast amount of ways. Bringing it online, sharing it with everyone that’s interested, allowing anyone to take part – this promises benefits for everyone involved. Or doesn’t? The answer resulting from our group work could beContinue reading “What to do in times of information overload?”

Topic One Onl201

Posted on April 12, 2020 by perolof

The topic was about online participation and digital literacies. In our group we tried to defined digital literacies as a concept and found that it was not easy. But we summerized it as ”the knowledge and skills to participate in essential ICT used activites”. We also talked about next level, digital competens when you useFortsätt läsa “Topic One Onl201”

Topic 2:Openness and Sharing

Posted on April 12, 2020 by Alexandra Olofsson

Information is everywhere and that can be challenging for me as a teacher but also for the students. During the course I have read that you can´t talk about education without talking about openness. And education is about sharing knowledge, which Cronin (2017) also describes. I really agree with that. For me as a teacher,Continue reading “Topic 2:Openness and Sharing”

Topic 2: Sharing and openness

Posted on April 11, 2020 by Leonidas

Here we come to the second topic of ONL with a very interesting topic: Sharing and Openness. The topic falls well within Open Learning and we discusses a lot on what we can share (and what are we allowed to share) and how can we promote openness. And how can we all benefit by sharingContinue reading “Topic 2: Sharing and openness”

Who is digitally literate?

Posted on April 10, 2020 by Silke Welter

Topic 1 in the ONL course was about digital literacy. Grown up in a not-digital world I consider myself as a digital visitor. Having two grown-up kids and working in a blended-learning program I certainly know about the benefits of the digital world, although in my personal life I mostly avoid leaving traces of myContinue reading “Who is digitally literate?”

So what’s the story with this ONL course?

Posted on April 10, 2020 by Robert Ciuchita

Topic 1- Online Participation and Digital Literacies I have joined the ONL course because pedagogical training is a tenure track requirement at my school. Since I teach topics related to digital marketing to MsC and PhD students, I was intrigued by what this course has to offer. Just before starting my ONL journey, I finishedContinue reading “So what’s the story with this ONL course?”
