  3. eLearning 2.0/Web 2.0 (Stephen Downes)
    • Elearning 1.0:
    • static packaged content
    • little true interactivity and learner input and
    • very little contact with a tutor.
    • represented by Learner Management Systems. (eg WebCT, Blackboard, etc)
    • Elearning 2.0:
    • more student-centred
    • centred around a Personal Learning Environment using social software.
    • students generate and share content.
    • they interact not only with teachers and their peers, but with anyone in the world they can learn from .

  10. CONNECTIVISM: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age (George Siemens, University of Manitoba, Canada)
    • Principles of Connectivism:
    • Nurturing and maintaining connections is needed to facilitate continual learning .
    • Currency (accurate, up-to-date knowledge) is the intent of all connectivist learning activities.
    • Choosing what to learn and the meaning of incoming information is seen through the lens of a shifting reality. While there is a right answer now, it may be wrong tomorrow due to alterations in the information climate affecting the decision.
    • 9000 hrs of extra content each day
    • In 6 months generates as much content as major broadcasters in US did in 60 years

  30. Learning in the 21 st Century
    • “ I have seen predictions that a student doing a 3 year course by 2012 will experience the situation where most of the knowledge they have gained in year one will be completely out of date by the time they finish year 3.”
    • “… the only sustainable approach…will be to find the learning and teaching strategies which will ensure that people embrace attitudes and behaviours anchored in lifelong learning.”
    • “ It is becoming …an imperative for industry to have staff who are lifelong learners and highly ICT literate.”
      • Greg Black, CEO, education.au (Campus Review 16/10/07)
  31. “ The whole world has become curricularised.” (Pachler) Image courtesy of Nancy White

  33. Awareness or a Set of Skills?
    • New Practices predicated upon an awareness that things have changed…
  34. Employability Skills
    • Communication
    • Teamwork
    • Problem Solving
    • Initiative and Enterprise
    • Planning and Organising
    • Self-management
    • Learning
    • Technology
  35. Where to Begin? (in class)
    • Give students options about how they receive and process instructional materials
    • Ask your students how they’d like to be assessed
    • Have students design tasks and assessments
    • Set collaborative tasks
    • Encourage the use of participatory media
  36. Where to Begin? (You)
    • Join an online community or email list
    • Ask questions and initiate discussions about your interests and needs
    • Start publishing or tracking blogs, podcasts
    • Do an online course in multiliteracy
    • Create social bookmarking and photosharing accounts
    • Create media – start simple:
      • Upload photos to Flickr; comment on others’ photos
      • create Digital Stories (Photostory, Moviemaker) and upload to YouTube
    • Search YouTube and other video repositories for educational content and start using it in your teaching
    • Create a Ning or Facebook account for friends or family
    • Use a wiki or Google Docs to collaborate on a small project
    • Place yourself in the new habitus of learning – you need to do it to understand and internalise the power of networks; reading and observing will not achieve this philosophical seachange
    • Put yourself to the side; know that the best teachers are always willing learners
  37. IN CONCLUSION:
    • Being a connected educator involves :
    • engaging with the world of participatory media
    • guiding students in this new disintermediated world
    • modelling the use of technology for lifelong learning
    • allowing time for ‘slow learning’ and reflection
    • It’s all about connections ……
    • (and it’s got nothing to do with age!)
  38. Education by and large has not changed. Syllabus/curriculum is still rooted in a past paradigm of fixed knowledge. The world beyond classrooms has changed a great deal, and will continue to do so at an ever-increasing rate…… Photo courtesy of Sawrah, http://flickr.com/photos/sawrah/314474272/
