What is an eLearning Authoring Tool? - 0 views

  •  
    Let's start with a simple definition: eLearning Authoring tools are used to create eLearning lessons. These tools have been around much longer than most people know. When asked, many guess that they started coming on the market recently or perhaps back in the 1990s. The truth is the National Science Foundation funded the first authoring tool, called PLATO, way back in 1960, and then another in 1967, called TICCIT. Both spawned many other authoring tools over the years.

UW-Extension dean: Flexibility critical in serving nontraditional learners | Education ... - 2 views

  • David Schejba
  • dean of continuing education, outreach and e-learning at the University of Wisconsin-Extension
  • his career has been driven by a desire to make education flexible, affordable and accessible for working adults, some of whom have degrees and are looking for new skills, some of whom have no prior postsecondary experience, but all of whom have real commitments outside of schooling

  • Schejbal sees the difference as a great example of why competency-based education makes sense.
  • Traditional students may need the structured learning experience and all of the knowledge and information that comes from a standard, semester-based model because they don’t bring as much with them to the classroom. Older students, though, come to the classroom with experience from work, the military, self-study, or previous college. Schejbal says they need a more malleable learning experience that lets them demonstrate what they know, apply that knowledge to a program, and spend time learning only the additional information they need.

  • These non-degree options are distinct from stackable credentials that Schejbal sees less value in, though he says the stackable credentials are fine if they’re within the realm of traditional credits.
  • Schejbal sees the value in both the traditional model for younger students and newer, alternative models for the “nontraditional” learner
  • But serving such a diverse student population — and doing it well — is complicated.
  • Schejbal says culture plays a major role in whether a college or university makes the effort to find a way. “Some institutions have both cultures and business models that are rooted in traditional higher education structures,” Schejbal said. “Those institutions have very little incentive to change.”

Advanced Learning Strategies for Multigenerational Workforce - 0 views

  •  
    The need for learning has changed with the presence of a multigenerational workforce. It is crucial to realize this transformation, given the changing demographics and shifting workplace paradigms, and the subsequent impact on the workforce. There's a paradigm shift in workforce compositions today. And it's impacting everything - from how individuals choose to interact (in-person vs. virtual) and work (on-premises vs. remote), to communication preferences (one-on-one, in-person, text, voice, video), and rewards and benefits. And yes, this paradigm change also impacts how employees learn and develop.

The Learning Paradigm in Online Courses - 2 views

  • 1995 Change magazine
  • Robert B. Barr and John Tagg
  • “A paradigm shift is taking hold in American higher education. In its briefest form, the paradigm that has governed our colleges is this: A college is an institution that exists to provide instruction. Subtly but profoundly we are shifting to a new paradigm: A college is an institution that exists to produce learning. This shift changes everything. It is both needed and wanted.”

  • The Learning Paradigm (as opposed to the Instruction Paradigm), emphasizes the students’ active role in learning and the purpose of that learning, which can be strong motivators for students. The challenge for instructors is to cede some control of learning to the students.
  • “Rather than feeling responsible for delivering material, instructors need to be responsible for monitoring the students’ progress, giving feedback, and intervening when the students have problems,”
  • the instructor’s role is to guide students in the right direction rather than simply delivering the content.
  • And with the wealth of resources available online, the instructor is no longer the only source of knowledge.
  • In addition to giving students control of their own learning, the Learning Paradigm puts learning in a broader context than a single course does, helping students understand the purpose of the learning beyond the course itself and how they might be able to apply their knowledge to the learning at hand.
  • it’s important for instructors to set expectations and take measures to prepare them to learn in courses that embrace the Learning Paradigm.
  • Having students work together on a paper that each student could more easily do individually is not an effective way to do cooperative learning.
  • offers the following example of an effective way to foster positive interdependence: Have a group of three create a collaborative wiki in which each student contributes a section that he or she then needs to link to the other two students’ contributions. Such an assignment requires each student to teach the other group members his or her content and learn their content.

    Interesting topic. Going from teaching to learning as a goal will require that areas students can learn vary widely as do the goals of why a student is trying to learns, their goals. See another paradigm from England. http://www.textbooksfree.org/Teacher's%20Internet%20Library.htm

Technological Advances Demand Adaptation from Public Higher Education | The EvoLLLution - 0 views

  • While MOOCS are hardly a step forward pedagogically, they have brought distance learning out of the shadows and into daily discourse about the future of higher education.
  • The lines between for-profit and not-for-profit are blurring as partnerships evolve between community colleges offering two-year diplomas and for-profit colleges awarding the bachelor’s degree. For-profit corporations now provide the platform and technical know-how for expanding the reach of not-for-profit master’s programs at many major universities.
  • Educational technologies will need to be employed for building new models of learning

  • Creative ways of reaching new student audiences — those of all ages, background and locales — will expand the institutional footprint in exciting new ways. No future academic enterprise will be blessed with guaranteed support and students. All will be vulnerable. But the net result, through collective leadership, can take us into a new era of higher learning.
