Enriching Online Education through E-Service-Learning | Getting Smart - 0 views

    • Rachel Tan
       
      One research paper on E-service learning: A pedagogic innovation for healthcare management education, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16700443 It appears to be successful as they identified more areas for implementation: The authors then define and conceptualize e-service learning, including the anticipated outcomes of implementation such as enhanced access, quality, and cost effectiveness of healthcare management education. Because e-service learning is mediated by technology, we identify state of the art technologies that support e-service learning activities. In addition, possible e-service learning projects and activities that may be included in healthcare management courses such as finance, human resources, quality, service management/marketing and strategy are identified. Finally, opportunities for future research are suggested.

    A bliki is a cross between a blog and a wiki. It may be a much more suitable conceptual idea for an e-portfolio, especially the collaborative type for educational environments.

E-learning: The future of education? - Education - Mail & Guardian Online - 1 views

  • The recent growth of ebooks and tablet computers, like the iPad, is fuelling the drive towards digital education. For the first time, institutions are thinking of innovative ways to incorporate digital content into learning programs. The potential to reach a global audience is also significant. And online learning need not be static or impersonal: on the contrary, it offers unparalleled opportunities for interactivity and open communication among students and teachers
  • Another attractive feature of online learning is that it is much more accessible than traditional tuition. Since resources can be spread instantly and for free to anyone in the world, learning is immediate, affordable and rewarding. It does not attract the hidden costs of contact based learning, like transport, material and stationery costs, which makes it valuable for less-privileged students. It also allows working people to gain valuable education in the time available to them, so that they can increase their skills and improve their working lives.
  • Many universities are now posting video lectures, reading materials and other resources for free online. The range of materials covers everything from introductory videos and podcasts to advanced textbooks and detailed research -- a true multimedia experience.

  • Gates says that it's not enough just to have good content: it needs to be organised in a useful way and backed up with a solid teaching support network. It is difficult to test knowledge or prove capabilities without structured academic programs. But this is where the internet can truly shine: an online course is not hampered by physical constraints or the high costs of full-time, contact-based learning. One teacher can easily oversee and support many students from anywhere in the world, and learning can be done at the student's pace, with access to a wider range of materials, discussions and resources than would be possible in a traditional physical learning environment.

Blurring the Boundaries: Social Networking & E-Portfolio Development - 0 views

  • How can we integrate ePortfolios with what we know about social learning and interactivity? The boundaries are blurring between eportfolios and social networks. As we consider the potential of lifelong e-portfolios, will they resemble the structured accountability systems that are currently being implemented in many educational institutions? Or are we beginning to see lifelong interactive portfolios emerging as "mash-ups" in the Web 2.0 cloud, using blogs or wikis or Twitter, Facebook or Ning, Flickr or Picasa or YouTube, etc.?

Five questions with: Jeff Swain, ETS innovation consultant, on the iPad and education - Teaching and Learning with Technology - 0 views

  • Two things really struck me about the iPad during my time with it. The first was how it extended my activity in reality. The touch screen feels like an natural extension of myself.
  • This is a huge paradigm shift
  • the device changed my perception of connecting
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • I found myself thinking less about Web pages and urls and more about specific places to go, places within places.
  • It's not that the iPad does everything well but it does do everything I need it to do well enough
  • Instead of comparing it to a cellphone or a laptop we should be exploring its potential for new ways of meaning-making.
  • test out the educational value
  • iPad is a Kindle killer in the e-book category because it creates a more intimate reading experience.
  • Because it can do the things I need to do when I'm on the go, the iPad has turned my laptop into my new desktop.
  • Make it a content creation device as well.
  • it's come in quite handy with my dissertation work. Using an application called Papers which I have on both my laptop and the iPad, I am able to access various education and research databases, download articles, and mark them up

Animated Tattoo Makes Great Use of QR Code | GeekDad | Wired.com - 1 views

  • With the continued penetration of smartphones into the mainstream market, QR codes are becoming more of an option for designers to prompt interaction. The two-dimensional barcode can easily be generated from text, including a website link, and printed on materials in magazines and conferences. An artist in Paris found an unusual use for the black-and-white squares: to animate a tattoo.
  •  
    Ok, I think this isn't ever going to make it into ANY school... but this is an amazing concept of how we can use QR codes to enhance real-world art in education... i.e. cyberspace meets meat-space (literally). An idea that I gained from this is that we could use this idea for, say, a printed picture book... if we scanned the QR code in the printed page using our iPhones, the moment the video loaded, we could just place our iPhones directly over the printed page, and it would give a compelling illusion that the printed page had suddenly come to life a la Harry Potter. :) BTW do watch the video from 2:05 onwards! :) (esp if you're squeamish about watching a tattoo process) Now, for an iPad-sized tattoo... any takers? ;) (Just kidding!)
  •  
    Another idea: Imagine we were doing a bio lesson and wanted our students to "see" a beating heart. We could get a mannequin and paste QR codes over the chest. Then the teacher can scan the QR code, load the corresponding Youtube video and place the mobile phone directly over the chest. The result would look to the students as though the phone was a magic window for them to peer through the chest to "see" the beating heart. So QR codes could be used for 3D object lessons too.
