Notes de l'éditeur
- This framework is used in our recent book. It effectively describes four inter-related areas of study, before describing the applications and uses for technology in each area.
- For Listening reading and sensemaking,we discuss the processes which you go through when grappling with course content (which may be knowledge or skills) and describe a range of ways in which technologies are deployed. For campus based students, online handouts or presentations, or podcasts before or after the lecture provide extra flexibility for students, and the chance to re-visit or repeat content. Other courses have changed more radically, with more active approaches to sensemaking, using online activities, animations and simulations.
- Can be encouraging, often illuminating, especially when don’t know how to pronounce new terms
- Podcasts can be downloaded onto mp3 player or memory sticks and then played later, away from the internet.
- iTunes U, part of the iTunes Store, is possibly the world’s greatest collection of free educational media available to students, teachers, and lifelong learners. With over 200,000 educational audio and video files available
- Interactive formative assessment can be used to help students check understanding. They can repeat the test as often as they need to. Intelligent Assessment Technologies working with teaching fellow in OU. Linguistically based authoring tool – for free text short answer assessment questions.
- In the same vein animations and simulations – can help to aid understanding by providing the opportunity to practise and repeat procedures. But time consuming and expensive to produce so only applicable at scale.
- Ideas on Troublesome Knowledge have been used with some success for the prof dev of our tutors. It is a way of concentrating tutor-student intervention on those aspects of the course which students particularly find difficult or troublesome. Tutorials - Not only good for checking an understanding, but really valuable for talking to other students and seeing that you are not alone.
- Again, Elluminate can be used to support students in troublesome areas when they cannot be in the classroom.
- Most courses in Higher Education involve the preparation of oral or written assignments. Technology has changed the way in which we approach writing tasks, and how we construct, share or edit. You can change your mind , producing multiple drafts, or reversion work which originally was written for another purpose. You can incorporate multimedia and other resources from a search on the web. You can share what you have written with fellow students, and get their comments.
- Useful for marking, or for collaborative writing
- Academic literacy. National norms and expectations for students
- One effective way to help students how to write is to show them what effective writing for a discipline looks like Again a new application for a wiki environment perhaps? Building a dictionary or glossary of terms might be another useful exercise
- Sometimes spoken feedback or feedforward is easier to grasp
- We keep in touch with people much more readily and on a far more continuous basis than it was ever possible before, and also stay in touch with people who were previously unavailable. Communicating, and belonging to an online community can help for discussing the course, or to alleviate isolation and support motivation. It means that peer support between students is more important than it has ever been before. Beyond the walls of the course and institutions, It means that being in touch with alumni from previous years, or with students from other places is also possible.
- Facebook etc Using alumni as mentors
- Running commentary can work for large groups
- This is part of an assignment, where students are asked to contribute advice for the next group of students, using a wiki. There is some risk associated with the facility of allowing anyone to edit and delete material on a web page. Hence any wiki should be monitored, in the same way that an online conference has a conference 'moderator' associated with it. Although resource intensive, this will allow incorrect or inappropriate content to be removed.
- WB training for apprentices in Brazil
- With respect to Searching and researching, this includes: 1. Resource based study where students are required to undertake some searching as part of the course 2. Or more commonly the use of additional web resources where students do some searching on their own initiative, and with often variable results. Ready availability of search engines; user generated content – not “kite marked” or peer reviewed
- And actually being able to show people what paraphrasing looks like can help greatly. Eg paraphrasing exercise in book.
- Part of RCAHMS The web is full of useful and exciting resources but students need help to find what is appropriate
