Education versus Training: Selecting the Right Lifelong Learning Experience | The EvoLL... - 1 views

  •  
    How to decide whether to engage in training or in education?  And how to know which is needed, if maybe not both? There are several attributes of education and training that can help answer each question. The table (Based on Arthur Chickering's work in Education and Identity, Jossie-Bass, 1993) summarizes the attributes of education and training and poses the critical questions the learner must answer when choosing between them.

Are online learners frustrated with collaborative learning experiences? | Capdeferro | ... - 2 views

  •  
    Despite the pedagogical advantages of collaborative learning, online learners can perceive collaborative learning activities as frustrating experiences

    Thanks for this. I'm currently trying to put together TMA03. I'm really interested in OU Live but struggling to select a second technology. I'm tempted to look at either Wikis or blogs. This article looks as though it's really interesting should I select Wikis. I hope you're enjoying the course. Teresa

Vicarious Learning | IGI Global - 0 views

  • However, the specific suggestion we address here is that vicarious learning is a distinct idea that may have its own implications, particularly for distance learners and others whose access to normal learning dialogue is limited.
  • Vicarious learning accordingly arises in situations where a learning experience is witnessed and reacted to as a learning experience by another learner.
  • This is a clear example of vicarious learning where the focus of the learning episode is some cognitive skill or understanding

  • The Answer Garden (Ackerman & Malone, 1990) and Answer Web (Slater, 1993) are computer-based learning systems based on networks of questions that have been asked by learners and answered by experts, allowing future learners simply to access these exchanges and thus to learn vicariously.

Nonconceptual content and objectivity - 0 views

  • In general, we may regard a perceptual experience as an informational state of the subject: it has a certain content -- the world is represented a certain way -- and hence it permits of a non-derivative classification as true or false. For an internal state to be so regarded, it must have appropriate connections with behaviour -- it must have a certain motive force upon the actions of the subject.... The informational states which a subject acquires through perception are non-conceptual, or nonconceptualised. Judgements based upon such states necessarily involve conceptualisation.

Will a degree made up of Moocs ever be worth the paper it's written on? | Higher Educat... - 1 views

  • Very few Moocs lead to any sort of officially recognised qualification, so the recent success of the University of the People in being permitted to award degrees to students studying for its tuition-free, online-only courses marks a departure for the sector.
  • The University of the People, for example, states that undergraduates will study in groups of 30 to 40
  • he big question is whether you can [offer degrees] without tutorial support, and so at lower cost.

  • Moocs will have to change considerably to gain credibility and improve the quality of students' learning experience.
  • students will need to be extremely driven to get through.
  • The degree and quality of tutor interactions is seen as critical to any chance of success by others in the sector, too.
  • Mooc providers need to find ways to make the assessment richer, more meaningful and more reliable at scale for larger audiences."
  • These better options include courses from providers such as the Open University and Ed2Go that provide "quality education for specific certificate programs in a much more personalised setting at very competitive prices and, in many cases, to developing nations gratis."
