Online teaching: overcoming the challenges, 20 October 2020Jisc
There is no one right way to use technology to underpin the curriculum. The range of possibilities can make it difficult for practitioners to know where to start, but as universities and colleges adapt to the new normal of teaching in hybrid environments support is needed to ‘get it right.’
There will be challenges, but you can overcome these if time and resources are directed at the right things. There are lots of misunderstandings about what it means to use technology to support teaching, learning and assessment. Academic staff need to approach the challenge with an awareness of those misconceptions as well as with a critical and creative mindset.
This webinar will showcase examples of how universities and colleges are currently adapting to provide flexible approaches to learning using digital. The focus will be on what lessons we have learned over the last six months and how we can make online learning a transformative experience for learners, rather than a deficit model.

International Federation of National Teaching Fellows World Summit 2017 - pre...Nic Fair
This document outlines a socio-technical higher education perspective (STHEP) that emphasizes the importance of personal learning networks. It argues that learning cannot be separated from the technologies used and that students sit at the center of their own personal learning networks comprising people, institutions, information sources and preferred devices/services. It also suggests reformulating learning theory through a socio-technical lens and that developing digital literacies and networking skills should be embedded in all teaching. The five STHEPs are: 1) the inseparability of learner and technology; 2) students at the center of their personal learning networks; 3) socio-technical constructivism; 4) personal learning networks enabling high-impact pedagogies; and 5) developing

Ardra Nakshatra (आर्द्रा): Understanding its Effects and RemediesAstro Pathshala
Ardra Nakshatra, the sixth Nakshatra in Vedic astrology, spans from 6°40' to 20° in the Gemini zodiac sign. Governed by Rahu, the north lunar node, Ardra translates to "the moist one" or "the star of sorrow." Symbolized by a teardrop, it represents the transformational power of storms, bringing both destruction and renewal.

11. From Knowledgeable to Knowledge-able: Building New
Learning Environments for New Media Environments | UM
Events | University of Michigan.
“The new media environment can be disruptive to our current
teaching methods and philosophies. As we increasingly move
toward an environment of instant and infinite information, it
becomes less important for students to know, memorize, or
recall information and more important for them to be able to
find, sort, analyze, share, discuss, critique, and create
information and knowledge. They need to move from being
simply knowledgeable to being knowledge-able.” (Wesch, M.,
2011. )
14. Living and Working on the Web
Do you want to enhance
your employability by
learning about the
fundamental changes in
how we live, learn, work
and interact online?
16. Module features
Blended learning approach
Introductory lecture (F2F)
Week by week peer/tutor interactions via module blog
Practical F2F supporting lab sessions
Assessed by
Reflection on professional digital profile development (50%)
On their blogs (for 5 topics in total)
• Students post their answer to a set question (300 words)
• comment on the answers provided by their peers (2 short posts, total 300
words)
• write a reflective summary of their learning for each topic (300 words)
Tutor feedback on progress is provided throughout the module
17. The reflective summary allows you to think about where you’ve come from
and where you are now and how useful it might be for you in the future –
this is something you don’t get on other modules
My opinions have often been changed by what other people have put
forward on the discussion board
One of the big benefits of studying online is the flexibility to fit my
academic life around my professional life which has been really
useful
No idea is lost – we can continue to share information and ideas
online beyond the duration of a specific seminar
18. Successes
• Employability advantages
• Raised awareness of digital literacy and blended learning
across University
• Digitally proficient students mentored their less
confident colleagues
• Active rather than passive learning is enforced – goodbye
“seminar silence”
• Flexibility of timing/location of learning for students and
tutors
• Recommendations between levels and disciplines
19. Challenges
• Students with poor time management skills struggled
• Some found it intimidating to share their work or review
that of others
• Impossible to hide at the back of the room…!
• CI modules may not fit ‘standard’ administrative
processes
• How to best embed successes back into mainstream
courses
20. Students as Creators and Change Agents
• A team of students working in partnership with
us to develop content, style and structure of level
1 modules
• The modules are organised around a liberal
interest in ideas and contemporary relevance to
help students understand the impact of business
on their lives.
• Offers distinctive perspectives on business:
analytics, management, history, philosophy,
entrepreneurship, innovation.
• Delivering the new modules involves
collaboration across a number of Faculties.
21. What the students are doing
• Sourcing and evaluating possible online
platforms and free web-based tools/apps
to help new students manage their learning
• Investigating models of module structure
used in introductory courses at other
universities
• Obtaining and analysing feedback from
current students on the various options
proposed.
• Checking out interactive exercises,
gamification techniques, quizzes
• Sourcing and curating relevant module
content from the web
22. Where next?
• Lessons of learning in online communities to be extended
to MOOCs
• Streamlining the assessment to retain interaction and
improve efficiency
• How to address the differing expectations of students
who have been socialised in very different ways of
learning
• Addressing inequality of skills/attitudes by introducing
the themes of the module at the start of their degrees to
provide more continuity

Editor's Notes
Life wide learning and digital and web literacies walk hand in hand in providing environments for authentic learning. Both focus on the “personal life course of an individual through which they learn” (Jackson, n/d, p.4). Learning on the web and learning how to be “digitally savvy” is a personalised learning experience. Nonetheless, it is not an isolated one. It is rather a shared venture. And curriculum design must take that into account and cater for situated learner and the skills that are relevant to help learners strive in a changing society.
