Innovating pedagogy 2013

10 September 2013 by Graham Stewart 1 Comment

lightbulb_mortar_board_iconA new report from the UK’s Open University provides a remarkable guide to innovation in e-learning and related technologies. The report is part of a series that “explores new forms of teaching, learning and assessment for an interactive world, in order to guide teachers and policy makers in productive innovation”.

Amongst the ten topics covered here are MOOCs (massive open online courses); Badges to accredit learning, Learning analytics; Crowd Learning, Digital Scholarship; Learning from gaming; and Citizen Enquiry.

The authors are convinced that these are the new pedagogies that might transform education. The report is succinct and readable with valuable cross-links to online resources and research papers. Available for download here:

Innovating Pedagogy 2013 : Exploring new forms of teaching, learning and assessment, to guide educators and policy makers.

gened_at_dut_150Members of the GETT (General Education Task Team) at their logistics meeting on 26 August showed interest in adding a virtual classroom to supplement face-to-face lectures in some of the new modules. The virtual classroom would provide students with online access to prescribed readings, video clips and review quizzes, with 24/7 access. Also, discussion forums and blogs could be plugged into the online classrooms, providing another route for student-to-student and student-to-lecturer interaction.

Welcome

Welcome to E-Learning Professor. E-learning at schools, colleges and universities opens up abundant opportunities for innovative learning. The online digital environment lends itself to student-centred learning that genuinely engages the learner, develops self-reliance and is an archway to the knowledge society. I’ll be posting notable e-learning issues, debates, views and links on this blog, and invite you to comment and share your own ideas. The blog also has a discussion forum – so you can post directly to the forum and start your own discussion thread.
