19 – 25 February 2024
During this week the focus is to connect with peers and facilitators and to form groups. You will be encouraged to share expectations, background knowledge, experience and practice and begin to build relationships.
Activities in PBL groups
All registered participants will get an email from the ONL organisers with an invitation and link to join their PBL group, on Monday 19 February at the latest.
The most important thing to do during this week is to meet with your group! To start off work, attend meetings and get to know each other! There is one task for the group: to present your group to the wider ONL community in any way you like – a presentation (Google slides, PowerPoint, Prezi, Sway…), a Padlet, a video or whatever you can think of! The presentation does not have to be neither technically advanced nor academically high-strung – opt for a personal touch! Share your presentation in the ONL241 community by clicking “Submit your PBL group work” (and enter details) in your PBL group space at the end of the first week.
During this second week of the course the PBL groups will begin to form and plan for the collaborative work. It is essential that you are present and active in this important first phase of forming and starting up your group work!
- A facilitator and a co-facilitator in each group will guide and support you and take the lead for the start-up.
- Click “ONL community space – login”. In the left hand column you will see the PBL group you belong to (as well as the common ONL241 community space).
- The facilitators will have set up times for the first online group meetings. These important first meetings are about getting to know each other and to discuss how you are going to work together (“setting ground rules”).
- Please note the dates and times and respond about your availability to the facilitators by responding to their post
- Introduce yourself in your PBL group to start connecting and comment on posts by others
- Each group has a Google Drive folder for collaborative work. Here you will find some guides and templates to start up your work.
- Share the presentation of your group to the wider ONL241 community (see above)
Read about, discuss and familiarize yourself with the ONL design and ONL learning activities including using the FISh model for collaborative inquiry.
