    An online lecture (slides+audio) from Prof Peter Albion (from USQ) for use in the course EDP4130.  In 20 minutes or so Peter gives some background to the changes in society, information availability etc that is - at least for some - suggesting a need for new approaches to knowledge, learning and teaching.

Taylor & Francis Online :: Literacy, literacies and the digital in higher education - T... - 1 views

  •  
    Abstract This paper is a critical review of some recent literature around the 'literacies of the digital' in schools and higher education. It discusses the question: 'what does the conjoining of the terms "digital" and "literacy" add to our understanding of teaching and learning in higher education'? It explores the continuing role of critical literacy in relation to the idea that digital literacies are transformative for pedagogy in this sector.

      This is a week where you are meant to explore the areas of NGL that you need to explore before finalising how you're going to apply it to your learners

    • djplaner
       
      Whether DBR is the only research method/approach mentioned here, or even it is the one mentioned is still a little open. I do have a personal preference for this. But may be open to flexibility.

      Where you start work on your final essay/DBR-plan to apply NGL to your learners
  • Writer’s workshops???
    • djplaner
       
      The idea is to require some form of peer feedback on your essay. Whether it's in the form of a writers' workshop is to be resolved. It's a great process, but the reality of how to implement it in this course is to be decided.

Developing personal learning networks for open and social learning - 1 views

  •  
    A book chapter describing the design of a 2008 open access, graduate level, educational technology course (a fairly close fit for EDU8117). This course was a direct influence on the MOOC work of Siemens and Downes and a potential model for EDU8117 (and my other courses).

      Much of what we're doing "as students" in this course with technology is around social media. Hence it is increasingly "uncool". A pointer to me and my practice and the need to evolve

    Ruminations on the origins and evolution of the PLE concept with a pointer to the "cooler"/more interesting trend that "network learning" is taking.

In Connectivism, No One Can Hear You Scream: a Guide to Understanding the MOOC Novice -... - 0 views

  • I’m not a Constructivist, Behaviourist, Cognitivist, or Connectivist. This is not a call for a return to an older theory. I’m a pragmatist, like many educators. I flirt outrageously with every theory that will have me. I’m ideologically promiscuous.

Education in the information age: is technology making us stupid? - 2 views

  • A recent study suggests that our modern lifestyles are making us “less intelligent” than our ancestors, at least at a genetic level.
  • When it takes a mere few seconds to find information about almost any topic, the value of knowledge and expertise is being devalued as information becomes cheaper and more accessible.
  • Our relationship with and understanding of knowledge and expertise has struggled to keep pace with the rapid democratisation of information.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Although there is little conclusive evidence to support some of the more outrageous claims being made, there is at least a distinct possibility that while information is everywhere, knowledge is declining and technology is to blame.
  • So perhaps what is more important is not whether technology is making us stupid but if educational systems need to shift from teaching us what to think, to showing us how to think
  • In terms of what this means for education, psychologist Robert Bjork and his team at UCLA have been investigating what they call “desirable difficulties”. A desirable difficulty is a feature of a learning situation that is deliberately made more challenging to enhance learning.
  • Kahneman’s research on dual process theory suggests we mostly rely on what he calls “system one” thinking. That is thinking that is fast, efficient, mostly automated, and very good at detecting patterns, relying on short cuts or heuristics wherever possible. “System two”, on the other hand, requires slow, deliberate thought and is much more taxing of cognitive resources. System two is where the heavy lifting is done.

Against 'Distributed Cognition' - 2 views

  •  
    A journal article that seeks to rebut a certain view of distributed cognition. Distributed cognition is a view of cognition often connected in various ways with networked learning. It expands cognition beyond the human mind into the connections it makes with elements of the socio-cultural context in which it is located. This is perhaps a bit beyond what you might consider in your work, but it is related and the issues/arguments discussed here may be useful
