The 'Learner Experience' of Mobiles, Mobility and Connectedness John Traxler - 0 views

  •  
    "This changes the default from a situation where institutions procure and provide learning technologies to one where learners bring their own technologies and institutions support them. It shifts the locus of control from institution to learner.

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.

    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

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.

NetworkEDGE: The Future of Education July 2014 - 2 views

  •  
    In this video Downes shares his utopian anti-institutional view of education. He pleads for "learning beyond institutions", towards personal learning in a networked world.  Move towards anarchic learning, based on no models, no systems, no traditional ideals. Move beyond institutions and towards self-organised networks of learners. "Content is the McGuffin it's the thing that gets us talking with each other" "its the connections between people and neurones that is the actual learning"

ECAR Study of Undergraduate Students and Information Technology, 2012 - 1 views

      # Blending modalities and using technology to engage learners is a winning combination. # Students continue to bring their own devices to college, and the technology is both prolific and diverse. # Students have strong and positive perceptions about how technology is being used and how it benefits them in the academic environment. # Students are selective about the communication modes they use to connect with instructors, institutions, and other students.

    The findings in this report were developed using a representative sample of students from 184 U.S.-based institutions.

Jisc TechDis - Accessible m-Learning model - 3 views

  • Accessibility is not necessarily about a disability; in fact it is not likely to be dependent on any single factor but will depend on several different things.
  • It’s easy to think that the small screen size, limited text options and fiddly buttons would immediately reduce the accessibility of the device for some learners. Whilst this is true it is only partly true because accessibility depends to a large extent on the context you’re working in. The model below has been developed to attempt to map the wider elements of accessibility in a more holistic way.
