What is the Right Blend? - 0 views

  •  
    A recent Department of Education study suggested that blended classes (part online and part face-to-face) had higher achievement levels than either face-to-face or totally online classes. Students felt greater community in blended classes. This session will explore the design and delivery of blended classes to provide the benefits of both on campus and virtual instruction. What a Blended Course is NOT: —Traditional classroom activities + "let's put some stuff on the web" —Online courses with campus tests On campus lectures with reading and tests online

YouTube - ‪Predator: A Visual Tracker that Learns from its Errors‬‏ - 0 views

    I just happened to think: Imagine if this pattern-recognition tech concept could be adapted to mobile phones in the near future, it might make for a very powerful blended learning / augmented reality tool. :) According to the researcher, implementation for mobile devices is feasible. Possible applications for m-learning could be: gestural recognition, dynamic object association and the like. E.g. If we could use an iPhone/Kinect to track a student's movements and remotely control an external apparatus halfway across the globe (maybe explore an Amazonian jungle to study biodiversity first-hand), or help disabled students (maybe cerebral palsy sufferers) communicate their thoughts more clearly... or perhaps get the students to "air-sketch" Chinese/Tamil characters to produce music on the go...

Schoology Aims to Fix One of the Greatest Pain Points of Education - 0 views

  • Schoology is a startup that seeks to address many of the pain points of the LMS: Schoology is easy to use. It's free. It offers data portability. It encourages communication and collaboration with look and feel of contemporary social networking sites rather than the bulletin boards of circa 1996. But it isn't simply a social networking tool. Schoology provides the functionality of its big name competitors - Blackboard, Moodle.
  • Most LMSes isolate students in their particular courses. And once that class is over and once a student has graduated, the information contained there - notes, lessons, assignments, discussions - are lost. Schoology blends a social networking interface with learning management tools, so that teachers and students (and parents and administrators) can communicate and collaborate on academic issues.

  • This paper presents a model which distinguishes between planned learner-content interaction and learner-learner interaction and suggests that a blend of planned and non-planned learner-learner interaction is worthwhile. It concentrates on technology enhanced learning using video communications which provide opportunities for more authentic online collaborative learning, formally and informally.

    Hi Dr. Ashley, sorry, it looks like it's restricted access. Do we have to pay for it, or is there some educational service that we can use to access the article?
  •  
    You will need to go to the NIE library for this. They may have already subscribed to it or they can find it for you.
  •  
    Dear all, I've downloaded the article already. If anyone of you is interested (unfortunately, it's not available in the NIE library but the NTU library internal network only), please feel free to approach me for a copy.
