The Pedagogy of MOOCs | Paul Stacey - 1 views

  • Based on MOOCs equally massive dropout rates having teaching and learning success on a massive scale will require pedagogical innovation. It’s this innovation, more than massive enrollments or free that I think make MOOC’s important.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Is it an innovation that we want if most of us drop out?

Building The Daily Create | Tim Owens - 0 views

  • I’m not a programmer, I’m more of a “hack away at something and make it work” type of guy.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I am much the same.
  • The homepage is a WordPress loop
    • Terry Elliott
       
      what is a wordpress loop?
  • static content blocks
    • Terry Elliott
       
      How do I do these?
  • ...15 more annotations...
  • schedule these assignments to automatically post
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I have done these before.
  • Twitter Tools fires off a tweet to the TDC Twitter account.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Twitter tools is a plug-in?  would need a dedicated Twitter account.
  • Flickr
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Need a clmooc flickr account if we want to do photographic creates.
  • a plugin called Awesome Flickr Gallery
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Need this plug-in.
  • You can create multiple galleries, restrict them to a specific tag, and control how they display.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      fine grained controls, cool.
  • Each assignment gets its own gallery which gets put into the post as a shortcode.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      I assume the plug-in generates the gallery and the short code.  this looks like a manual operation here.
  • Alan figured out how to link back to the original Flickr photo
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Would want this kind of function as well.
  • decided to use SoundCloud
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Need a Sound Cloud account
  • simple widget for groups that we’re using on The Daily Create
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Need the widget.
  • SoundCloud is very restrictive with free accounts and very expensive for paid features. Free users only get 120 minutes of audio total and can only create 1 group. This means I have to find folks to create these groups for each assignment
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Serious sticking point here.  Need to look at alternatives.
  • YouTube was an obvious choice since so many people already use it and I just needed to find the best way to visualize a tag. The answer to that was TubePress with allows you to build shortcodes with TONS of options.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      TubePress plug-in will do it as long as YouTube doesn't start costing money.
  • it takes awhile to feed in
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Drawback with vimeo or youtube not a deal breaker.
  • allowing folks to submit suggestions for new assignments
  • Gravity Forms
    • Terry Elliott
       
      Yes, this works great.
  • allows us to create a form whose submission automatically creates a new post in draft. The user assigns it a category. All we have to do is decide when it should be published, add the widget/shortcode for visualizing it, and give it a tag. The more submissions we get the more posts will be scheduled in advance and there’s very little turnaround work for us.
    • Terry Elliott
       
      This sounds complicated but it is probably just a matter of screwing up a bunch of times and then fixing it.
  •  
    Here is how ds106 does the daily create.

'Making' and Education Reform: Learning to Ride the Wave | DMLcentral - 0 views

  • Learning by making is an accepted principle amongst teachers and educators of all sorts of persuasions. Whilst it is true that the maker movement can give young people a different kind of access to communities and resources and allow them to work with peers or directly to market, thus (possibly) shaking down the traditional through routes from school to college to work, and whilst it is true that there may well be metaphorical gold in plastic, none of this would have had any effect on educationalists if they weren't already predisposed to view the act of making and its associated disciplines as central to the processes of effective learning.
