Our Big Idea: Open Social Learning | blog@CACM | Communications of the ACM - 0 views

cacm.acm.org/...fulltext online learning social community peer facebook tool
shared by ian august on 04 Jun 11 - No Cached
  • I was charged with explaining my "innovative approach to open social networks for learning"
  • Access. In 1996, Sir John Daniel estimated we would need to create a major university every week to educate the 100 million students qualified to enter a university who have no place to go. Fifteen years later, universities have simply not kept pace with the staggering demand for college education
  • 2007 Silent Epidemic study funded by the Gates Foundation, I had what my students would call (pardon their French) a WTF moment. Eighty-eight percent of high school dropouts have passing grades. Huh? Nearly half say they are bored and classes are not interesting.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • Technology doesn't help either. They find video lectures and Powerpoints boring, and they read less with e-textbooks than with traditional textbooks. These kids aren't failing out of school; they are simply disengaging.
  • What, then, engages this generation? Social media, for one. They spend 10-15 hours a week on Facebook
  • Open Social Learning. Imagine a Facebook where the point is to study together, not trade pictures and jokes. Imagine a World of Warcraft where students earn levels and points by helping each other learn. Not a video game that teaches physics; instead, let's create an educational experience that is social and game-like.
  • we built a site called OpenStudy , the first large-scale social network that enables students to connect, get help, study together, and earn social capital through game-like rewards.
  • It is a vibrant community of students and teachers, teenagers and adults, people from more than 150 countries engaged in a single activity: learning.
  • OpenStudy is built on three core ideas: open, peer-to-peer, and community of learning.

WebElements Periodic Table of the Elements | Chlorine | Images of elements - 0 views

  • The above pictures are adapted with permission from Theodore Gray's Periodic Table Table web site, an excellent source of element pictures, interactive pictures, and videos.

      When using the tabs at the top of the home page, it filter out information that the user isn't interested in. So, by clicking "pictures" I did not get any text descriptions...As an instructor, this is a great resource since it cuts down on the "noise" of the page and allows you to quickly access the links to the pictures that you want to show students. If I linked directly to this page from my course site, it would eliminate a student getting lost in an outside resource. Also, this particular page links to another resource: "Gray's Periodic Table." Click through it and enjoy :-)

    This website provides information for students about their career plans. I really like the page that outlines for them how the choices they make now can help them in the future. I want to use this in my online course because I think it is important for students to see the correlation between what they are doing now and how it will help them in the future. I think I am going to add this into Module 4 to assist with the career plan. I also want to use the Structured Reflection link as an intro to the course. I think it outlines reflections and states a clear purpose to the students, who may have not done a blogging activity before.

Creative instruction is needed to help students see these links.

  • Amy M on 20 Jun 12
     
    CDL Recommendations: Auto-detect mobile devices and automatically display mobile version of a site (though always provide obvious links back to the full version of the site). Create mobile websites rather than apps whenever possible so that users do not  need to download software in advance of using it. Advertise through a variety of channels, including campus or departmental emails, campus websites, library websites, and blogs. Overall CDL design recommendations: Set up testing practices and environments for the most heavily used device platforms (Apple iOS,  RIM Blackberry OS, and Android OS). Test with physical devices where possible rather than emulation environments. Support mobile web access as opposed to building standalone mobile applications. Adopt and maintain web analytical tools to accurate mobile device tracking and usage statistics for online services. Continue to survey constituents and end-users annually or bi-annually to capture rapidly changing behaviours.
