A Bill of Rights and Principles for Learning in the Digital Age | Digital Pedagogy | HY... - 0 views

  • Courses should encourage open participation and meaningful engagement with real audiences where possible, including peers and the broader public.
  • Students have the right to understand the intended outcomes--educational, vocational, even philosophical--of an online program or initiative.
  • n an online environment, teachers no longer need to be sole authority figures but instead should share responsibility with learners at almost every turn.

  • Online learning should originate from everywhere on the globe, not just from the U.S. and other technologically advantaged countries.
  • The best online learning programs will not simply mirror existing forms of university teaching but offer students a range of flexible learning opportunities that take advantage of new digital tools and pedagogies to widen these traditional horizons, thereby better addressing 21st-century learner interests, styles and lifelong learning needs.
  • This can happen by building in apprenticeships, internships and real-world applications of online problem sets. Problem sets might be rooted in real-world dilemmas or comparative historical and cultural perspectives. (Examples might include: “Organizing Disaster Response and Relief for Hurricane Sandy” or “Women’s Rights, Rape, and Culture” or “Designing and Implementing Gun Control: A Global Perspective.”)
  • The artificial divisions of work, play and education cease to be relevant in the 21st century.
  • Both technical and pedagogical innovation should be hallmarks of the best learning environments. A wide variety of pedagogical approaches, learning tools, methods and practices should support students' diverse learning modes.
  • Experimentation should be an acknowledged affordance and benefit of online learning. Students should be able to try a course and drop it without incurring derogatory labels such as failure (for either the student or the institution offering the course).
  • Open online education should inspire the unexpected, experimentation, and questioning--in other words, encourage play. Play allows us to make new things familiar, to perfect new skills, to experiment with moves and crucially to embrace change--a key disposition for succeeding in the 21st century. We must cultivate the imagination and the dispositions of questing, tinkering and connecting. We must remember that the best learning, above all, imparts the gift of curiosity, the wonder of accomplishment, and the passion to know and learn even more.

InfoGraphic Designs: Overview, Examples and Best Practices - 1 views

  •  
    Information graphics or infographics are visual representations of information, data or knowledge. These graphics are used where complex information needs to be explained quickly and clearly, such as in signs, maps, journalism, technical writing, and education. They are also used extensively as tools by computer scientists, mathematicians, and statisticians to ease the process of developing and communicating conceptual information.

    Introduction by Dr. Barrett This is the most important lesson because I believe reflection is the "heart and soul" of the portfolio process. You will focus on the reflective portfolio, most often implemented through a reflective journal. The technology tool most appropriate for this level is most likely a blog. There are a variety of mobile resources provided to scaffold the reflection process with students. The implementation plan step includes a plan for scaffolding student reflection, teacher feedback, and a plan for further professional development to support teachers' portfolio and technology skills.

Bringing Teachers Onboard with Tech -- THE Journal - 1 views

  •  
    A provocative read that places emphasis on the importance of a collaborative culture and student learning "It's wonderful to work with a staff for whom the dominant mode of communication is, rather than the complaints a vocal minority may be inflicting on the group, a celebration of exploring what's possible. Where I've seen this happen, the leadership communicates openly, finds time for teachers to work together, and can trust the staff to expect much of themselves."
