Introduction to communities of practice - 1 views

  •  
    More detail about the concept of Community of Practice that I spoke about in my M5 reflection. I hope it's helpful in thinking about Community of Inquiry.

Shifting From Pedagogy To Heutagogy In Education - 1 views

  •  
    Article summary: "This content is meant to do two things. It will, for the uninitiated, summarize the origins of heutagogy and the theories from which it was derived. At the same time we will have a look at more recent work and thinking from authors around the globe and see what they have discovered through using or thinking about heutagogical principles. The main theme is that people are naturally very efficient learners and that we can more effectively make use of this fact in our current education and training systems."

An Instructional Design Model for Intercultural Language Teaching: A Proposed Model - 2 views

  •  
    This article talks specifically about the applications of the ADDIE model and the Dick & Carey Model for teaching about culture and intercultural communication. While the authors talk about an English as a Second Language course in Vietnam, their instructional design can be used for any course looks at cultural norms, including languages, linguistics, anthropology, sociology, and human health. Also, while their plans are not specific to an online course, their ideas transfer to an online or hybrid course quite easily. I was really pleased to find this article, especially as it supports my own ideas about using a hybrid of these two models to teach about intercultural communication. It makes concrete the theoretical assignments and organizational tips that I had in mind. I know I will come back to it often.

Teaching online courses in linguistics - 0 views

  •  
    Not surprising (to me), there are very few studies of online teaching in Linguistics. The authors of this article state that they found only one prior to this 2014 publication. Similar to other research on online teaching in general, they found that time management, communication, and detailed instructions are crucial for a successful course. They also discuss how attitudes toward technology play a significant role in course success.
