e-learning online learning research

shared by Dennis OConnor on 13 Jan 11 - No Cached
  • This is another useless comparative study between online and face-to-face teaching, This study looked at 312 undergraduate students in one microeconomics course in one unnamed state university and found that male, Hispanic and low achieving students did worse online than in face-to-face classes. From this the NBER had the cheek to conclude that online learning is not all that it’s cracked up to be.
  • online courses in this study were just video recordings of the classroom lectures.
  • Will someone please tell universities and colleges in the United States that they need to redesign courses for online teaching?

  • ‘Good teaching may overcome a poor choice of technology, but technology will never save bad teaching.’ Indeed, it usually makes it worse (the magnifier effect). Merely putting lectures (good or bad) online is bad design.
  • There should be a law against any university or college that fails to adopt well tried and tested standards in its teaching, face-to-face or online. This is criminal negligence, no less, and students should sue for fraud. But don’t blame online learning for this. It’s academic laziness and ignorance that’s at fault.

    Tony Bates is one of the original gurus of highly interactive modern e-learning. In this blog he lets off some steam. Just reading this made me feel better.

  • regroupe des enseignants du lire écrire penser. Ils ont nommé ce que nous pratiquons tous quotidiennement sur le web: “nouvelles lectures”. Alors que les évènements dans le monde se succèdent plus vite que jamais, la presse papier est désormais très largement dépassée par les informations véhiculées sur internet. Le Web a de plus en plus de lecteurs. Mais ces lecteurs ont ils une lecture fructueuse?

The Wrath Against Khan: Why Some Educators Are Questioning Khan Academy - 0 views

Khan Academy pedagogy elearning flipped classroom

shared by Dennis OConnor on 28 Mar 12 - No Cached
  • While "technology will replace teachers" seems like a silly argument to make, one need only look at the state of most school budgets and know that something's got to give. And lately, that something looks like teachers' jobs, particularly to those on the receiving end of pink slips. Granted, we haven't implemented a robot army of teachers to replace those expensive human salaries yet (South Korea is working on the robot teacher technology. I'll keep you posted.). But we are laying off teachers in mass numbers. Teachers know their jobs are on the line, something that's incredibly demoralizing for a profession already struggles mightily to retain qualified people.
  • it's hard not to see that wealth as having political not just economic impact. Indeed, the same week that Bill Gates spoke to the Council of Chief State School Officers about ending pay increases for graduate degrees in teaching, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan issued almost the very same statement. What does all of this have to do with Sal Khan? Well, nothing... and everything.
  • One of education historian Diane Ravitch's oft-uttered complaints is that we now have a bunch of billionaires like Gates dictating education policy and education reform, without ever having been classroom teachers themselves (or without having attended public school). But the skepticism about Khan Academy isn't just a matter of wealth or credentials of Khan or his backers. It's a matter of pedagogy.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • No doubt, Khan has done something incredible by creating thousands of videos, distributing them online for free, and now designing an analytics dashboard for people to monitor and guide students' movements through the Khan Academy material. And no doubt, lots of people say they've learned a lot by watching the videos. The ability pause, rewind, and replay is often cited as the difference between "getting" the subject matter through classroom instruction and "getting it" via Khan Academy's lecture-demonstrations.
  • Although there's a tech component here that makes this appear innovative, that's really a matter of form, not content, that's new. There's actually very little in the videos that distinguishes Khan from "traditional" teaching. A teacher talks. Students listen. And that's "learning." Repeat over and over again (Pause, rewind, replay in this case). And that's "drilling."

    On this page we want to look at how to actively incorporate the backchannel (and hence the audience) in the presentation.  This moves the presentation from one-way delivery to a two-way dialogue with the audience.

  • 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.
