oer open educational resources practices cel

shared by Ashley Tan on 02 Nov 10 - No Cached
  • I spoke about Open Educational Practices, (including Open Educational Resources and Open Scholarship) a subject which I am learning more about all the time as the movement grows and gains traction. You see, the idea behind open practices is that anyone can gain access for free, at any time and in any place - courses, software, ideas, knowledge, people... OEP requires everything to be open - for access, scrutiny and repurposing. So whether it's licensing agreements such as Copyleft or Creative Commons, or open access journals, or even massively online open courses, the open educational practices are gaining ground and influence in the academic world.
  • It's not going to be easy to change a model where knowledge has become a commodity though. Too many powerful people and organisations stand to lose a lot if everything becomes 'free' and open. But things are changing slowly. The publishing houses who once had a strangle hold on academic journals are beginning to lose their grip. Some are having to change their business models. Google Reader and Google Books for example, are giving us all more than a glimpse of the pages of just about every book that has ever been published. And open access journals are opening up knowledge for all without payment. So when a student comes up against a paywall - what will they do? They will go elsewhere of course - to the free versions that are out there on the web.

open-source E-Learning learning education

  • "CK-12 basically looked at STEM [science, technology, engineering, and math] and broke it down into the 5,000 fundamental concepts, and they mapped them all together," Chakrapani says. "It's not about creating a textbook and every three years putting out a new edition so you can capture more revenue. It's about thinking how a student learns."
  • "And then you go back at the end of year with teachers, see what students struggle on, and revise and improve the book. Each year, the text gets better."
  • Free educational resources -- like a university course on Coursera, for example -- may be available for students to use at no cost, but students cannot reuse, remix, or repurpose that course content however they'd like. By contrast open-source materials like CK-12's materials are not only free, but can also be freely repurposed in any way a student or teacher sees fit.

    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

How to Stick with It When You're Learning Something New On Your Own - 1 views

  • Find What You Actually Want to Learn About First things first, you need to figure out what you're actually interested in.
  • Figure Out How You Learn Best Full sizeWe all learn a little differently, and while we're fans of learning by doing, you can't always do that with everything.
  • Learn By Doing Whenever Possible Full sizeIn most cases you're going to learn best by doing. That means practicing programming by actually making a program or learning a new language by speaking it. If you're having trouble getting over the learning hump and sticking with it, you might simply need to provide better context for the process.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • Find a Community to Learn With Full sizeIt's no secret that many of us tend to learn a little better when we're surrounded by other people who are just as interested in the subject at hand. If you're struggling to stick with a learning program because of the inherent isolation of learning on your own, Stark recommends finding a community of like-minded people:

    In this brave new world of open courses and self-learning, we need to learn how to learn on our own - and one way is to learn to find other like-minded learners to learn together with.

    This article was written 5 years ago. Now, we have the benefit of ubiqutious mobile chat platforms e.g. Whatsapp, which can create small focus groups to talk about a particular topic. Not only so, besides the usual text, Whatsapp also allows participants to share mobile videos taken on the spot, share their geolocations with one another, share audio recordings and of course, images. A personal example of how I use Whatsapp for personal learning: I use Whatsapp regularly to practice reading and writing my Japanese with a few other friends, and when I make mistakes, they can quickly give me feedback in real-time. We also exchange photos of Japanese culture, food items and even on-the-spot videos from those who are in Japan. Some of us go for Japanese classes, some don't. But those who go for the classes share what they have learnt with those who haven't.  I'm not sure if this can be classified as a type of "flipped learning", but I realized that mobile chat makes an excellent real-time, yet highly personalized tool for e-learning in small group discussions. Perhaps this is one area we can consider next time as a way to do mobile learning that harnesses the social nature of us learners.

    For IDs. The book focuses on a very practical approach to designing learning, drawing upon what we know about how our brain works, and then applying it. And, most importantly, the book goes beyond the traditional ID paradigm about intro, concept, example, etc., and includes the emotional (motivational) side of the equation. Dirksen also (thankfully) points out the role of performance support, helping designers recognize that not every solution is a course.

  • If we are ever going to get to a point where we can use mobile technology as a learning tool we need to help executives get past the idea that the use of mobile phones are limited to email.  We have to show the ease of “mobile working” before we can truly persuade leadership to invest in “mobile learning.”  How you ask?  I suggest including some new courses in your curriculum – add a “Blackberry: It’s more than email” course and get people using the technology the way it was meant to be used.

    Thanks for sharing this. It's something I might be able to use for my trainees next semester. BTW, gaming as tests is news only to the layperson. Gamers and educators/researchers involved with gaming know that games are mainly a series of tests! People can't get over the idea that you can actually enjoy yourself taking tests.
