Gilly Salmon webinar in ocTEL introducing Carpe Diem workshop

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

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

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.

(see image below) Learners practice skills in order to acquire the knowledge and skills and later the understanding necessary to progress. The learners are assessed on their ability to perform the skills and apply the knowledge and understanding. Feedback is […]

#ocTEL week 6 activity 6.1 Reading and reflection on assessment practices

This activity was based on a JISC (2010) publication.  I’m basing my reflection on a new undergraduate level 2 module which myself and a colleague are planning at the moment. It is based on an online business game simulation played in groups.  It will have two group assessments, a business plan and a performance presentation, […]
