Creative Commons: An Educational Primer - 2 views

    This brief article provides an overview of Creative Commons relevant to educators. While copyright laws provide some provision for educational uses, materials (e.g., texts, videos, audio, images, etc.) released under one of the Creative Commons licenses are actually much easier to incorporate into course content. Rather than just linking to a source, you may have the licensed right to incorporate and edit the material directly.

Interview: Kevin Carey, Author Of 'The End Of College' : NPR Ed : NPR - 1 views

  •  
    This is an audio interview about online learning, mostly focusing on MOOCs. An interesting point of view regarding the availability and egalitarian nature of MOOCs as opposed to education provided through expensive universities. Although this is not exactly blended learning, as it focuses on totally online courses, I though it would be an interesting addition to the discourse.

Organizing a Blended Course via a Class Guide - 8 views

  •  
    Explanation of how to use online class guides to explain to students what is expected in the online and face-to-face portion of a blended / hybrid course. I typically encourage a daily schedule for each face-to-face meeting that is broken down into before class, during class, and after class.

Blended Learning Theory and Design Principles | Teaching and Learning Excellence - 5 views

  •  
    Looks at learning theories and how they relate to design for online learning - behaviourism, cognitivism, constructivism Also liked the section on deeper learning principles
  •  
    This link provided clear and organized information that we can use to organize the content and types of our course activities. It added another layer of information to what was already provided by the course. It seems to prove that when you read about the same topic but coming from different sources, the learning process is facilitated. Obviously, it takes more time but unless I'm sure of what I'm doing I like to prepare myself before jumping in to our own activities. Are you guys experiencing difficulties getting started on the DIY activities? I am taking forever...! But, in the end, I know that the acquired knowledge acquired by doing the project will prove to be more satisfactory and productive than just reading about it...Thanks to everyone who posted these links!

Blended Learning Quality - 2 views

  •  
    An ambitious project being funded by the EU (EU project number 539717-LLP-1-2013-1-IT-GRUNDTVIG-GMP) that is designed to "develop an appropriate quality framework as well as tools to evaluate the quality of Blended Learning." Will be interested to monitor how they come to resolve some of the issues pointed out in the Blendkit2016 material.

    Interesting! I was a bit taken aback by the lack of concrete ways to assess online courses from the readings, so this is helpful!

Blended Learning and Localness: The Means and the End | The Sloan Consortium - 2 views

  •  
    Interesting to think about leveraging our "localness". This is part of broader research from Sloan that posits that local universities and colleges can leverage their local brand when they establish quality online or blended courses. Not everyone is going to do the MOOC at Harvard just because it is being offered by a big name university. They may well go with a trusted local brand particularly if we offer a blend of online and personalised experience.

ELI Discovery Tool: Blended Learning Workshop Guide - 2 views

  •  
    Blended or hybrid learning, an instructional delivery mode in which instruction is conducted partly online and partly face-to-face, has emerged as one of the fastest-growing and most successful instructional models to deliver flexible learning options for today's learners. This site I think would serve us instructional designers who, after this MOOC would have to deliver professional development training to our faculty. This, together with the course materials in BlendKit would make for an awesome PD experience.
