Janet Gordon (London Met): I'm Janet, Blended Learning Facilitator at London Met Sandie Gay: successful learning a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: assessement for learning, oppose to assessment of learning Sandie Gay: Why is engagement with peers critical? Can learning never be a lone activity? a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: peer and self learning provides different learning perspectives daran: @a.nortcliffe Agree! :-) Jo Conlon: To check perspective? Sandie Gay: yes, it does. just wondering about lone learners Elizabeth Charles: Part of learning is to be able to articulate this to others Sandie Gay: always? a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: online assessment need to think about how can assessment for learning change learner mindset Jo Conlon: I think you can learn alone but social interactions will impact... Elizabeth Charles: Not always but at certain points is necessary. Kim: Wikis and google docs/dropbox support collaborative learning Janet Gordon (London Met): @Jo, I agree Lucy Tallents: more likely to have deep learning if articulate & are challenged by peers? a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: social interaction though helps provide clarity, check ones learning Jo Conlon: The question is earlier Sue Barnes: Social learning is learning with impact James Little: in someways learning alone is never possible - always building upon ideas of others... Helen C: Agree with James - learning is inherently social Kim: I think a good mixture of tools and ways of learning is the best way Sue Barnes: Learning alone is learning that doesn't stick? James Little: think point #2 is the crux of the matter! a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: I agree need to look at LTA, then whether TEL can help Jim Pettiward: educators don't always know what they need to address in their practice... Niall Watts (UCD): @Jim Pettiward. I agree and that's a problem for educational technologists Sandie Gay: 7Cs - excellent model a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: you know what is working is not, you start looking then for tools, processes, frameworks to assist Sandie Gay: Helen's e-learning models great for getting engagement Jim Pettiward: cd we have links in chat window please? :-) Kevin Brace: Helen's work is great & very comprehsive - a massive time saver! Adam B: http://learning.staff.ac.uk/bestpracticemodels Jim Pettiward: Great - thanks! Elizabeth Charles: The link for 7Cs is in the further reading section as well Andy turnre: http://learning.staffs.ac.uk/bestpracticemodels Moderator (David Jennings): Grainne Conole's 7Cs http://e4innovation.com/?p=628 Janet Gordon (London Met): Thank you Niall Watts (UCD): Intranet page. Can we access it? Rola Ajjawi: http://staff.napier.ac.uk/services/academicdevelopment/TechBenchmark/Pages/home.aspx Moderator (David Jennings): Niall, which is the page you can't access, please? Niall Watts (UCD): @David. Thanks. I have it noiw a.nortcliffe@shu.ac.uk: sorry I have to leave as have a class, will watch recording later. 3E frameworks summaise succintly what one should consider when planning TEL. Jo Conlon: A continuum -a refereshing change - not one size fits all Moderator (David Jennings): Has anyone had any practical experience of the 3E framework? Jim Pettiward: I think providing examples of best practice is key. Elizabeth Charles: @Jim I totally agree :-) Kayla: I can access without any login Niall Watts (UCD): I can access it now. Thanks Andy turnre: 8 Jo Conlon: Agree, with a focus on the teaching. Also examples for us to use / adapt. Sounds great Kim: It works somewhat in this way at the OU. We have to use technology but the decision is which technology is best. At level 3 and postgrad there is more emphasis on empower Sharon Flynn (NUIG): Dialog box asking for authentication Jim Pettiward: Q: You'll probably come to this, but I'm wondering how staff are encouraged to interact with the framework? Is it linked to a CPD framework at all? daran: Thanks great resource.. Sally Mitchell: Good question @Jim Andy turnre: It all seems available to me. When I look at section 8 it asks for a login, but the content seems to be there... Jim Pettiward: Great - thanks. Elizabeth Charles: Works for me too. Jim Pettiward: I think the move from consumer to producer of content should be a learner journey supported throughout the university experience... Kim: It can be quite a struggle to move them from consumer to producer daran: constructive alignment Sandie Gay: If it's there for the next cohort, how does this cohort learn? Jim Pettiward: Yes, I'd have thought this creating content is an example of 'empower' caroline: Re glossaries - I would think the learning comes from the doing - defining key concepts so passing on to next group of students doesn't mean the next group would learn from it. Sue Barnes: Yes but the creation is the richness so as an artefact for next years student isn't so valuable Kevin Brace: creativity : That is reflected in the revised Bloom's digital taxonomies! Sandie Gay: yes for the cohort creating and learning from it Niall Watts (UCD): If learning is in the process, the next cohort does it again. @ Sandie Kim: We make heavy use of forums at the OU. Students share materials there as well Sandie Gay: thanks Adam B: @keith how have you found levels of engagement with discussion boards? Jim Pettiward: @Adam - I was wondering the same thing! Kevin Brace: our onilne MBa uses student lead webinars - very successful & engaging. Not assessed either. Kevin Brace: @Keith - how successful are wiki's? They seem to have never lived up to their potential? Andy turnre: I like wiki's :-) James Little: Find wikis are great for specific activities.... Kevin Brace: I suspect poor support for students give them bad press? Adam B: @keith are you setting digital oworking expectations at the start of courses? Niall Watts (UCD): Our medical school uses discussion boards for exercises successfully . Participation IS assessed Jim Pettiward: For me it's almost like asking 'how successful are groups'? Depends how they're introduced, moderated and on the participants themselves Sandie Gay: What were you expecting of wikis @Kevin? Kim: I've used wikis plus Eluminate for collaborative work on post grad courses daran: @Jim Pettiward agree daran: Context, cohort, tools all impact? Kevin Brace: @Sandie: I love them, but I hear nothing but bad reports, mostly due to poor instructional design & expecting students t o"just get it". Adam B: thank you Jo Conlon: Does anyone have any pointers on encouraging a group social identity to knit the group / maintain focus Jim Pettiward: Q: Have you found any of these types of activity and process to be more or less successful in certain disciplines? Sandie Gay: True Kevin. need to use Helen's e-learning model on student engagement with wikis :) Kevin Brace: @Jo : make each one a leader for a task , or appoint anther to summarise a thread. Jo Conlon: Thanks @Kevin Moderator (David Jennings): Jim, I've noted your question and will raise with Keith in the next pause - in the meantime, if anyone has answers of their own...? Jim Pettiward: @Jo Give them some kind of ownership of the process and tools where possible - allow group personalisation Barrie: what wiki's do people use, can you recommend any Jo Conlon: These would all work well in Art & Design, aligns with practice Sandie Gay: Excellent - lets have more sharing so not recreating stuff which holds up progress Andy turnre: @Barrie http://semantic-mediawiki.org/ Kim: I've used wikispaces Moderator (David Jennings): Download via http://octel.alt.ac.uk/?attachment_id=3024 or directly at http://octel.alt.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads2013/05/3EFramework_mapping_template.docx Elizabeth Charles: @David how did Keith get engagement from academics to deploy this? Sandie Gay: link leads to error page @David Barrie: Thanks @Andy Moderator (David Jennings) to David Jennings, Caroline Greves, Keith Smyth, Caroline: Keith, question from Jim Pettiward: Q: Have you found any of these types of activity and process to be more or less successful in certain disciplines? Jim Pettiward: @David Thanks! Andy turnre: 404 Elizabeth Charles: 404 Kevin Brace: 404 — Fancy meeting you here! daran: Top link Niall Watts (UCD): 404 — Fancy meeting you here! Kevin Brace: :O( Lucy Tallents: 1st link (short one) works Sandie Gay: first link works James Little: 404 Moderator (David Jennings) to David Jennings, Caroline Greves, Keith Smyth, Caroline: http://octel.alt.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads2013/05/3EFramework_mapping_template.docx Kevin Brace: try the bit.ly? Irmgard: first link works Janet Gordon (London Met): I used the first link and it worked fine Moderator (David Jennings): http://octel.alt.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads2013/05/3EFramework_mapping_template.docx Kayla: The first link works and the file is .docx x wang: can access. downloaded already MaggieJensen: I've downloaded the template. 404 for online version. Jo Conlon: Agree @Kayla Niall Watts (UCD): Works http://octel.alt.ac.uk/?attachment_id=3024 Rola Ajjawi: does knowledge production fit under empower or extend as well? MaggieJensen: Second URL Sonya Powney: Second link doesn't work MaggieJensen: First one was fine, so I have the template Kevin Brace: http://bit.ly/ZVAjBe = works Jo Conlon: I think blogging is great - but am not very good at filling in boxes!! Where would we put this? Sandie Gay: Enhance - course handouts; Extend - wikis; empower - webquest Moderator (David Jennings): Sorry, try http://octel.alt.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/3EFramework_mapping_template.docx Sonya Powney: That works Rola Ajjawi: enhance - discussion board, extend - peer review online or QMP formative, empower - not sure? Kevin Brace: Enahnce - threaded email, Extend - comments on blog posts, Empower - webinar Sandie Gay: sorry - no mic just now MaggieJensen: Glossaries are excellent and I'm planning to promote the use of those across subjects through various activity options in Moodle Janet Gordon (London Met): @Rola QMP? Adam B: Sharing self directed project proposals online and get peer feedback on them Kayla: No mic (sorry), but I have been working with academics to replace course reading lists with electronic reading/resource lists - preferably with comments. This could then fit "extend" by getting students to add their own annotated recommendations and comment on others. No sure about "empower" for this though? James Kerr: Enhance - online progress tracker/checklist;; extend - self-test activities; empower-timeline constructued with learner input Andy turnre to David Jennings, Caroline Greves, Keith Smyth, Caroline: Doing things on the open web is empowering :-) Editing content on wikipedia for example. Barrie: Portfolio's built using a BLOG for i.e A Specific coaching session that has just taken place to be documented and then the Lecturer can comment on the BLOG to give feedback as the course progresses Andy turnre: Doing things on the open web is empowering Editing content on wikipedia for example. Elizabeth Charles: enhance - share search techniques best and worse Rola Ajjawi: @Janet: QMP question mark perception online formative quizzes Lucy Tallents: Extend – forums to articulate learning, consider other viewpoints, practice justifying opinions & decisions Andy turnre to David Jennings, Caroline Greves, Keith Smyth, Caroline: Sorry Sally Mitchell: Extend - strcuture discussion fora for students in groups to frame one question that has emerged from lecture; these questions are then used to structure next lecture. Janet Gordon (London Met): @Rola, Thanks Liz Kirrane: Enhance: discussion forums Extend: Live seminars on Adobe Empower: I am stuck now! simonbates: For WBL using e-learning spaces. Enhance - students develop glossary of occupational standards, extend - Students deliver online seminar on their area of WRL, empower - students engage with a critique of a professional blog Rola Ajjawi: enhance - podcasts and vodcasts of lectures Andy turnre to David Jennings, Caroline Greves, Keith Smyth, Caroline: I posted to the room too :-) Sandie Gay: e.g Glossary of ODP drugs created by students using a wiki Leone Gately: Enhance: Collaborative Bookmarking/Webquests: Anyone got good resources for creating webquests Rola Ajjawi: empower - adobe connect students' presenting their research projects Kayla: @Liz Kirrane - get the students to run the webinars - perhaps in groups? Elizabeth Charles: enhance - discussion and wiki to share search outcomes Liz Kirrane: @Kayla, great idea -m thanks Kayla: @Liz you're welcome :-) Sandie Gay: e.g. webquest on standards bodies and awareness of legislative requirements in ODP James Little: Communication with a figurehead and celeb about a health issue... via social media... report back on group blog. Both extend and empower. (in Nursing and Midwifery) Elizabeth Charles: engage - collobarative bookmarking Jo Conlon: Bookingmarking works well, agree @Elizabeth. Aslo they then read! Jim Pettiward: thanks - that's interesting. Elizabeth Charles: @Jo Conlon - good point about the reading. Could be part of critical thinking and suitability. Jo Conlon: I think this mapping / sequencing part is really useful, thanks Jim Pettiward: I think a VLE is a good place for the Enhance type activities for undergrads but as students progress they should be encouraged to move away from the 'safety' of the VLE to start producing content and projecting their online profile out into the real world e.g. through own blog etc and that they continue to use after graduation... daran: @ Jim Agree again! Sandie Gay: @Jim - v good point Elizabeth Charles: I agree Kayla: I think that the empower level joins up really well with many of the broader skills and literacies we are trying to develop in the students / support the students develop themselves daran: How strong is the impact of level of study? Janet Gordon (London Met): A colleague was concerned this week that her students felt overwhelmed by the number/range of activities she had provided for them. Any advice? Adam B: @keith change at course level seems like a really effctive approach, if change at course level is not possible is this framework still effective Jim Pettiward: Yes, agree. VLE has a role.. Andy turnre: @Jim I agree too, VLE's can be configured to have open parts, but moving to the open web is important for some things :-) Elizabeth Charles: @ Janet - possible clear guidelines that they need only choose to do one :-) Kayla: @Janet - is everything released at once? Can it be timed or triggered to avoid that overwhelming feeling? Kim: I think it's important to build online skills over time and as a course progresses to build on skills Jim Pettiward: First point - yes indeed!! Jo Conlon: @daran I like this continuum precisely because it can then reflect where the learner is, regardless of stage on the course Sandie Gay: @Janet - each linked to learning outcomes? show relevance of activity? daran: @ Jo agree Elizabeth Charles: @Kim yes if you don't build on it student engagement will be lost. Kayla: Thanks Keith - both interesting and useful :-) Jim Pettiward: Excellent session - thanks very much Leone Gately: @Keith thanks really informative practical session Sue Folley: Great session thanks Elizabeth Charles: Sorry - got to fo to another session. Thanks for a great session Jo Conlon: Agree, excellent and inspiring Janet Gordon (London Met): Thank you :-) Sandie Gay: Nice framework - succint and easy to work with - thank you Irmgard: many thanks :-) Kim: Thank you :-) Sally Mitchell: Thanks, most interesting. Kevin Brace: Fab Keith - thanks. Do MOOCs make you feel uncomfortable then? Due to lack of "support? M Sanderson: Many thanks Maria: Many thanks James Little: Many thanks Keith Adam B: an excellent framework, thank you Sue Barnes: Thanks - I have seen your 3E framework before but this has brought it to life Andy turnre: Thanks everyone :-) Bye Liz Kirrane: thank you Keith, excellent session! MaggieJensen: A very timely presentation from my point of view :) Thank you very much, Keith daran: Cheers! Judith: Very interesting with much to think about. Thank you.
