  • I agree with Sarah that using social networking tools for a course increases the amount of interaction and probably encourages more assessment of how people interact together. I
  • I wonder for people who already use these tools if the community of a course would really feel any different than the community of their friends.
  • f we’re trying to create lifelong learners, then using social networking tools for learning might be more effective. It has a stronger intrinsic context for interacting with others than a more artificial classroom environment. Practice that is as close to real life as possible is more effective, so practicing using tools for learning in the real world should make it easier for students to transition out of the course and continue using the tools.

  • The field test for one of the courses I developed recently finished, and I got the initial feedback today. This is the first course where I have used blogs, wikis, and other tools. A lot of what students do for this course is outside of the LMS, but they also come back in for the discussion boards. One point in the feedback was that students had a hard time jumping back and forth between the blogs and the discussion boards. The conversations didn’t seem connected to each other, and the discussions “didn’t have a home.” It is one of the problems with all of these tools that everything is so scattered. RSS can aggregate a lot of content into one place, but you still have to be able to bounce back and forth between resources and connect it all. Using these tools creates a much less centralized experience than a traditional LMS.

    and individual pacing, is often perceived and experienced as a lonely way to learn. It is likely that the implicit requirement for self motivation reduces accessibility to many students who have little exposure to, or sufficient experience with, programming that is not structured and orchestrated by a live (and often face-to-face) teacher. This challenge - to permit maximum student freedom, while supporting opportunity for community building and mutual individual support in cost effective ways - is perhaps the greatest challenge (and opportunity) facing the distance education community Page 1
