Exploring contributions to scholarship in e-learning: weighing up the evidence
Filed in Articles on May.01, 2009
In this paper the authors examine three journal articles (two of them relating to e-learning and one to higher education in general), in order to draw some preliminary conclusions about the kind of contributions to discourse about e-learning which may be regarded as valuable in advancing the scholarship of teaching and learning.

Inspired to bookmark this from the grad attributes consultation in which one group had two members who were engaging in 'destructive group behaviours' (brought onto the straight and narrow eventually by a skilled facilitator) ... I have heard it suggested that if groups are being derailed by dominating or digressing types, it can be useful for the whole group to sit down and consider what kind of group member they are in order to limit their unhelpful behaviours and get the group working well again.

I missed out on the session today so I'm not sure of the context of this, I can imagine though! As an aside...this is a very interesting web site all round...I've just been watching a presentation on "How people learn" and it's interesting from the point of view of the subject matter and from the perspective of how the material has been made available. I know Giles is working hard trying to put together videos of some of our own academics talking about teaching and I look forward to seeing them!

The whole point of the seminar is that ... maybe the students don't get it right, and maybe the students don't know everything about the subject, but it's the fact that the students figured it out on their own that makes it their own, and it makes them able to internalize that subject. ... I learned more in my [seminars] than I did in all my prior learning experience. And I think mostly its because I retained more ... because I was able to take my education into my own hands ... take what I was reading and make it my own.

This is a great post and it's great that it comes from an academic. In our sessions we do often get bogged down in the "but it's never as good as face to face" debates. I think it's partially because some people can only see e-learning as being all or nothing i.e. your course is online or it's not rather than considering areas of their teaching that might benefit from a bit of e.
