    I hear complaints about the poor quality of student writing today as often as I read stories about the Internet causing the end of higher education as we know it (i.e., frequently). When those complaints come in the form of actual conversations with peers, instead of in print, I feel myself immediately put on the defensive.
  • Scarlet Tanager on 28 Mar 13
     
    Thanks for this post Heather. I liked that the instructor recognized that despite some challenges with using a new technique to promote his students' writing skills the energy that was expressed by his students far outweighed the "mess" that he dealt with the first time trying something new.

    The lack of learning transfer is a common mantra in higher education. It's a good article for reflection. Although I've been a proponent of service learning, at the same time, I wasn't sure how students could or if they would transfer their experiences to the academic component. Now, I need to rethink my position on service learning and its impact on connected learning

  • If you don’t start off at the beginning giving them feedback that has meaning for them, the quality of their work slips
  • If they know that somebody really cares about what they’re doing and [makes] that personal connection, they will work to that expectation. If they don’t think the instructor is spending time with their work and simply says, ‘Oh, you did a great job’ but doesn’t make anything personal, they figure, ‘Oh well, the instructor skimmed the information,
  • it’s important to include examples from students’ work so they know that you have read it.

      So common with tech! Rather than first considering the learning objectives and how best to accomplish them, many start with some cool thing they'd like to use and work in reverse.

      You don't have to teach in a silo! Running new ideas past a colleague and discussing them can help you to better anticipate potential pitfalls and develop preventive strategies. Also, others might get excited about your idea too and join in!
  • It’s essential that you receive feedback from students

      Denise Caparula on 31 Aug 16
       
      Some go out of their way to avoid student feedback, as if it makes them somehow weaker. Show your human side, model the learning process - that's one of the best things you can do for your students!

      It's really frustrating when an instructor tries something new, then automatically discards it because it wasn't perfect the first time. What is? Try it again with some tweaks, don't just give up.
  • Start planning what you’ll do differently
    • Denise Caparula
      Denise Caparula on 31 Aug 16
       
      One of the best "teaching tricks" out there is to keep a running log/journal/etc of changes you want to make the next time through. Put it in writing somewhere you won't lose it; you may think you'll remember it, but it's more likely that thought won't return to you until you encounter the same problem next time.

    For those who may be a bit unclear on how to use Twitter for a class, the article includes varied strategies. Some of the ideas have already been mentioned in our discussions and responses as we worked through the second module, but there are a few other points that may be noteworthy. Second, the article affirms some of the ideas already shared, especially for those of us who were initially unfamiliar with twitter's potential application.

    I must admit that when I first heard about Twitter I thought it represented the apex of what concerns me about internet technology: solipsism and sound-bite communication. While I obviously spend a great deal of time online and thinking about the potential of these new networked digital communication structures, I also worry about the way .....
