ocTEL week 3 – 3E Framework (Keith Smyth webinar)

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

I know ocTEL advise us to keep jogging along and I am already on catch-up from week 7 but I’ve decided to head back to week 3 in order to capture the 3E framework which I think is a brilliant resource.  I have just watched the webinar again and got just a much on the […]

Catching up , ocTEL week 7

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

I am a bit gutted at missing week 7 even though a holiday was lovely.  The running to stand-still feeling comes back too quickly, doesn’t it?  Anyway this week’s (week 7) content is my ‘thing’ so I am attempting to get straight.  I have reviewed the webinar but would have definitely had to put myself on […]

Gilly Salmon webinar in ocTEL introducing Carpe Diem workshop

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

Good resources from the webinar today: http://www.gillysalmon.com/uploads/1/6/0/5/16055858/carpe_diem_planning_processmay2013_3.pdf For me this resembled a deign-thinking creative workshop but it was useful to see it applied to the process of learning design rather than product design.  The resources are good too and include examples.   For me, the useful take-aways of the 5 stage process were: ‘focus on the […]

ocTEL Activity 6.2 WebPA

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

I am ‘Mrs Teamwork’ when it comes to assessment.  I think  it is essential that it is properly supported rather than sink-or-swim.  Although I have done  a lot on this, I still do get the occasional ’it’s not fair’ vibe.  WebPA is therefore very appealing to me (Case study 7, p42).  I particularly like the aspect of agreeing criteria for assessment.

ocTEL Activity 6.1

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

Snipped from http://www.jisc.ac.uk/media/documents/programmes/elearning/digiassass_eada.pdf I really like Nicol’s approach as it seems (to me) to be about getting students to be able to make accurate judgments on their own work.  His earlier work (2009) uses ‘empower’ and ‘engage’ and I think this is the essence of these 12 principles.  I like number 12 too – learn from your learners.

Google and your memory

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

I am grateful to James Little http://www.learningtechnologist.co.uk/2013/05/09/151/ for posting this great infographic on Google and your memory from OnlineColleges.net This made me think (yet again) of Rheingold’s 21st century literacies.  Probably ‘attention’ – our reliance on this external memory may impact on the development of our understanding.  Also the need for the development of Critical Consumption (“Crap Detection”) […]

A note of optimism to encourage digital visitors – increasingly intuitive technologies

Posted on by jrconlon95 Posted in Blog posts, Course Reader

Jonathan Sands OBE gave his Professorial Inaugural lecture at the University of Huddersfield tonight. This gem of optimism came from the Q&A session.  Jonathan was asked if he was concerned that some would be left behind and excluded from the benefits of the digital society.  He said no – I expected him to, he describes […]
