The Purpose of Online Discussion - Hybrid Pedagogy (M5) - 0 views

  •  
    The author discusses the theory behind online discussions, as well as the potential value of - and problems associated with - online discussions. Some excerpts: "The argument I offer here is that saying an online discussion is a worse version of an IRL discussion is like saying an apple is a worse version of an orange. Disappointment with online discussions because they are not like IRL discussion is like being disappointed with an apple because it is a bad orange." ... "In an IRL discussion, students look, speak, and listen with multiple objects. In online discussion, like during a lecture, students sit and stare at a single object as well: but it is a computer rather than a person speaking. The lecturer is the computer. This lecturer is a screen with a keyboard and includes a complex series of frames within which the student types sentences in varying sequences. By this I am not only talking about video lectures which students watch, but rather more perceptually. In a lecture, the lecturer is the sole object of attention. There is only one object of attention: bracketing the complex material engaged with in the screen, it remains true that students exclusively engage with the screen when learning online. Students in online courses stare at a computer when learning online the same way they would stare at a lecturer speaking, focusing their attention on a single object. At a lecture, it's a person. Online, it's the computer."... "In any case, online discussions are still discussions. It would be a mistake to say all we do during online discussion is stare intensely at a computer. Most of the discussions in my online courses occur asynchronously on discussion boards. On these written discussion boards, for example, we read and write responsively. The whole situation of online discussion is therefore more akin, in this respect, to written correspondence."
  •  
    From the conclusion: "Participating well in online discussions might be more like writing a good letter or having a good phone conversation, as opposed to a good spoken kind comment in an IRL discussion. We should not expect online discussions to be anything at all like IRL discussions. They are categorically different. In other words, being disappointed with online discussions because they are not like IRL discussions is like being disappointed with apples because they are not oranges." "In planning online courses, generating online assignments, and creating materials for online teaching, it is important to remember that online discussions require students to focus intense attention on a machine, and therefore compels them to cathect and introject that machine. Independently of the fluidity of your module and software, students transfer meanings onto their machines during the learning process rather than a person. While the introjection of machines is an interesting opportunity for further educational research, as an instructor, plan for student participation with this in mind: they are interacting with a machine and not people. An online discussion is more like a computer's lecture than an IRL discussion, no matter how interactive."

Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Online Video - 4 views

  •  
    A discussion of fair use practices for online video. This should be helpful for anybody who is planning on using video clips as illustrations or for discussions or assignments.
  •  
    Thanks, Dan. This is an excellent overview that offers reasonable guidelines while highlighting the gray areas within the area of fair use, a very flexible term. The focus is on intent but, more importantly, that the educational/critical aspect must be clearly defined and communicated. I do use quite a lot of video so this is very helpful to me.

Online teaching-A universal pedagogy - 4 views

Serendipitously - yesterday I signed up for their Coursera course. I was thinking of watching it (reading materials, seeing their format, etc) while conducting our EFOT course. It has just started.

Creating Khan Academy Style Videos - 1 views

  •  
    This is a quick overview to making videos using a technique called "pencasting". It's the technique used in many of the Khan Academy teaching videos. I will also post the website of the author, Andrew Wolf from University of Rochester. He has many other ideas, links and helpful tutorials for blended/online learning.

Got Time? A Time Management Strategy for Online Instructors | Online Learning Insights - 3 views

    • marshallduke
       
      This seems to be common. It's like that old line, "Besides that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?" Not counting one year's prep time seems to be cheating in many ways.

      There is a lot of disagreement in the literature about whether online teaching takes more or less time. Some studies, such as this one, say it takes less. Some say it takes a lot more. Some claim no difference. The study that we read for M2 (Van de Vord & Pogue) reviewed the range of these. (Their study was a disaster in my humble opinion, by the way.) My impression is that the methodologies are very poor and that the controversy will continue until methodological issues are ironed out.

  • yet the consensus among the research suggests that teaching online involves less of a time commitment from the course instructor than does a face-to-face class
  • did not include curriculum development time, set-up or development of course home page,
  • A time management strategy that considers the factors and nuances of teaching online should include, a time blocking strategy, communicating frequently with students collectively in anticipation of potential questions, involving students in peer reviews and discussions, and creating an efficient grading strategy.

    I found this article to be very helpful in providing a sense that it will be possible to control time use when teaching on line. It gives great tips on how to overcome the feeling that online teaching will be a 24/7 class rather than one that meets TTh 10-11:15 in White Hall 208! I like this one a lot.

Teaching Literature Online - 1 views

  •  
    This UCF website, prepared by Carissa Baker, explores the way in which many literature professors are "trying innovative technology strategies within the literature classroom to increase knowledge and engagement." With theoretical as well as practical sources, the site offers many ideas on student engagement and literature immersion; it also has a few videos with ideas for staging virtual worlds; and a starter bibliography with 10 articles on a range of topics, including virtual literature circles; native avatars, online hubs, and urban indian literature; victorian novels and technoRomanticism; using Tweeter in the Literature Classroom (hmm...); online teaching Old English; and hypertext use to enhance students reading experiences, among others.

The Marshmellow Challenge: Build a tower, build a team - 0 views

  •  
    Researchers say that some online students don't like group work. How to deal with dissonance? One idea is to have students list their reasons and then discuss. Another is to show them a video on collaboration and team-building. There are a lot of lousy team-building videos on YouTube. But here's a fun and engaging Ted Talk presentation. Why are kindergarteners better at collaboration than business school students? Tune in.
