  • we offer seven principles based on research on good teaching and learning in colleges and universities. Good practice in undergraduate education: encourages contact between students and faculty, develops reciprocity and cooperation among students, encourages active learning, gives prompt feedback, emphasizes time on task, communicates high expectations, and respects diverse talents and ways of learning.
  • They rest on 50 years of research on the way teachers teach and students learn how students work and play with one another, and how students and faculty talk to each other.
  • While each practice can stand alone on its own, when all are present their effects multiply. Together they employ six powerful forces in education: activity, expectations, cooperation, interaction, diversity, and Responsibility.

    The lessons learned at Vanderbilt are consistent with lessons learned in other MOOCs offered elsewhere. The lessons include, briefly: Teaching online is a team effort. There's more to MOOCs than lecture videos. Open content is our friend The cognitive diversity seen in MOOCs is far greater than in closed courses MOOC students are well-motivated students Cognitive Diversity + Intrinsic Motivations = Crowdsourcing Success MOOC students can be producers as well as consumers of information Accommodating students on different time tables can be challenging Instructor presence is important, even in a MOOC Good stuff; good article.

    Hargittai, E. (2010). Digital Na(t)ives? Variation in Internet Skills and Uses among Members of the "Net Generation". Sociological Inquiry. 80(1):92-113. "People who have grown up with digital media are often assumed to be universally savvy with information and communication technologies. Such assumptions are rarely grounded in empirical evidence, however. This article draws on unique data with information about a diverse group of young adults' Internet uses and skills to suggest that even when controlling for Internet access and experiences, people differ in their online abilities and activities."
