    A video from Stephen Downes about differences between LMS vs PLE. This is a post for week 02, interactions. The point here is that interactions in a LMS are different than those in a PLE. Of course, interactions are richer in a PLE, not discarding LMS as part of PLE.

    This is an interesting auto ethnographic study of online learning - strikes me as a parallel method to the one Kelvin Thompson explores in his thesis: http://onlinecoursecriticism.blogspot.com.au/2005/08/overview-of-online-course-criticism.html

    Is your Learning Management System paradigm teacher- or student-centered? Long-term success depends upon the correct answer.

The Flipped Classroom: Turning the Traditional Classroom on its Head - 5 views

  •  
    This infographic is interesting but scroll to the end and view the dramatic changes in student outcomes. This is a high school example but it seems that similar results could also be seen in remedial or gen ed type coursework in higher ed. Comments have some interesting resources, too.

Using resources like Khan Academy also mean your focus is on procedure, not understanding; if somebody needs to get through that math-course-you'll-never-use then it's a good too, but if real understanding is the goal then something more conceptually based (and something that's correct more consistently) would be in order.
