Academic Integrity Honesty Delivery and Development Course

shared by Mary Beth Messner on 12 Apr 11 - No Cached
  • There seems to be a common sentiment that online courses open up the door for students to become more mischievous and dishonest than they ever would dare in a more traditional classroom setting, but why is that the case?
  • Can he or she know for sure—even when students are in direct eyesight as they work through an exam—that nothing improper is happening? And what about the instructor who gives take-home exams? How are these any different from the kinds of exams that students in an online course might take?
  • Perhaps the key for all of us—regardless of where and how we teach our course—is to really rethink just what assessment means, because no matter where the class takes place, someone who wants to behave in a dishonest way will probably figure out how to do so.

  • ICT was most frequently used for learning in those enterprises with flatter hierarchies and more devolved decision talking responsibilities and in which employees had greater autonomy in the organisation of their own work. Interestingly, these enterprises also tended to have a more experienced workforce and low turnover of employees

      Might be worth exploring this more - why - what are the causes of the hostility or is it merely dependency on outmoded systems rather than hostility - a reluctance to engage with cultural change due to being institutionalised - dunno...

eportfolio

  • ntellectual/philosophical tension around how we open the door for creativity by students
  • How can we use ePortfolio for assessment without losing the flavor and the creativity that brought many of us into the movement?
  • I don’t see institutional assessment as separate from student self-assessment
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • commitment to link student self-assessment with institutional improvement
  • ePortfolio is an outcome, generated by an institution-wide commitment to fostering students’ identities as learners and professionals
  • it really is about organizational change
  • not to start with student deficiencies but with student competencies. That’s a key ePortfolio idea. As educators, we’ve so often focused on deficiencies. But we can start with competencies: what students already know.
  • ocus on learning and integrative learning
  • prior censorship. That doesn’t fit. Prior censorship is when we say: this is the syllabus, these are the four walls, and you follow my path
  • ePortfolios; it’s about your students becoming successful
  • ePortfolios, such as collecting evidence of learning, organizing it, reflecting on it, receiving feedback, and planning for future learning and personal development.
  • ePortfolio is about: learning with and from our students
  • you don’t get to pull out your lecture notes you’ve been teaching from for the last twenty-five
  • ou have to change what you’re doing. Every time you go to back to the classroom it’s new. It’s different. It’s evolving
  • emphasis on ePortfolio for learning and transformation.
  • It’s so important to educate the whole person, not just someone who meets our graduation requirements.

  • Acxiom helps higher education institutions verify the identity of distance-learning students
  • Glenn Hoyle on 20 May 09
     
    Distance learning promises anytime, anywhere learning. But that convenience for students comes with a potential risk for educators - finding a way to make sure the registered student is really the person doing the work.

Learning or Management Systems? « Connectivism - 1 views

social network e-learning LMS

shared by Leo de Carvalho on 29 Apr 11 - Cached
  • The shortcomings of these approaches rest in their lack of integration and the control required by many universities. The experience of many educators parallels my own—learners are very active with technology, but once in an LMS space, they seldom do more than the minimum required (a particular concern in courses where dialogue and theory are important to explore). This may be a function of students taking on “the student role”—defaulting to passive behaviour—once in an academic environment. It may also be due to the change in behaviour expected by educators—where learners must leave their tools behind and adopt tools with limited functionality. For an individual used to Skyping, blogging, tagging, creating podcasts, or collaboratively writing an online document, the transition to a learning management system is a step back in time (by several years).
  • Leo de Carvalho on 29 Apr 11
     
    Jon Mott recently published an article in EDUCAUSE Quarterly on Envisioning the Post-LMS Era. Jim Groom captures the reactions of individuals who have been exploring the link between learning management systems and personal learning environments. There is a sense - and I'll admit I felt it as well in reading the article - that many long-time contributors to the discussion were not referenced in the article. In theory, the review process should draw attention to important omissions of literature. However, most reviewers would likely not see the spaces (blogs) where much of the conversation happens before it jumps into mainstream as good sources. I've posted below that I wrote while at University of Manitoba addressing the LMS/PLE issue. I'm not sure how long an archive of their copy will exist, so posting it here might give it a bit more of an existence.
