The release of topic 3 (Learning in communities) coincided with me struggling with new mixed-ability groups at my university. Frankly, my new students do not only have mixed abilities, actually, everything is mixed: their ages, language competences, cu…

”Collaboration”

Posted on November 24, 2021 by Johan Wenngren

In one of my project courses, I apply randomly assembled groups or assemble groups based on the result from a questionnaire (Teamology, by Wilde, 2008). I do this mainly because it is an applied course, where teams work with an open problem formulation, and where group processes are part of the curriculum. I also believeFortsätt läsa “”Collaboration””

why is student collaboration a thing?

Posted on November 24, 2021 by Sara Davoudi

Among my colleagues, I feel that there still is this discussion on what type of learning activities create the best opportunities for reaching the intended learning outcome. My personal reflection is that there are those that argue for a teacher focus where the teacher is the strongest voice in the classroom. In such cases, the […]

Learning in communities? Why? What are the drawbacks and the possible solutions ?

Posted on November 23, 2021 by silvia montanari

TOPIC 3 – Reflections I was particularly interested in the overview Kay Oddone gave on Online Learning Community and Online Learning Network. This helped me reflect on these two different types of ‘online learning’. However, in this context I would like to analyze just two aspects of collaborative learning. The first focuses on the reasons whyContinue reading “Learning in communities? Why? What are the drawbacks and the possible solutions ?”

Collaboration vs Collaborative learning

Posted on November 22, 2021 by Johan Lugnet

When I’m teaching with my colleagues, we often talk about open-ended problems and project-based learning. Both because we have an idea that we can support/challenge the student to develop higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) (Krathwohl, 2002), but also because in engineering work there is most likely a team that share a responsibility to solve a project […]

Posted on November 22, 2021 by Martin Olsson

If you want to know what the future looks like in terms of learning, look at your children (or grand-children). Study them how they learn when they want to learn something and when they are motivated. I have a 15 year old Son who is very good at English (unlike me…) and loves to ”goFortsätt läsa “Learning in communities – networked collaborative learning”

Topic 3: Collaborative Learning

Posted on November 22, 2021 by Irshaad Gangat-Duvenage

I found this week’s task fun because we used a podcast to inform others about collaborative learning. Prior to covid, I purely lectured face to face using some case studies to assist learning. My practice has changed significantly where I lecture online and had to adopt gameification, quizzes, online chats, forums and activities to engageContinue reading “Topic 3: Collaborative Learning”

There might be a argument between capitalism (profit) VS sharing information with others. In my country, South Africa, I see a a huge rich poor divide because many students do not have access to purchasingContinue reading “Topic 2 : Openness and sharing”
