The Project Based Learning (PjBL) Toolkit: Integrating digital and social med...Sue Beckingham
Projects may be carried out by both individuals and within groups. The outputs might include a report, presentation, poster, artefact or prototype (physical or digital). Project based learning is “a teaching method in which students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to an engaging and complex question, problem, or challenge.” (BIE 2015).
When undertaking a project, seven distinct stages have been identified that the project owner(s) go through. These are: the question, plan, research, produce, improve, present and evaluate. At each stage students may engage in a variety of activities. This multifaceted form of learning presents opportunities to participate in authentic and meaningful problems and to develop a range of skills along the journey. Reflecting upon these experiences, can encourage students to reconstruct what they have learned, and go on to confidently articulate the skills they have developed (or have yet to develop), and how they can apply these in other situations. Learning how to self-reflect on these experiences and developing a habit of doing so, can have a profound impact on learning. However for some this does not come easily and is often undervalued.
In my talk I will share the Project Based Learning (PjBL) Toolkit and how resources within this can be used to scaffold effective and meaningful multimedia reflective practice, develop confident communication skills and digital capabilities.

Learning analytics as a metacognitive toolEva Durall
Learning analytics offers opportunities to the students to reflect about learning and develop metacognitive skills. Student-centered analytics are highlighted as a useful approach for reframing learning analytics as a tool for supporting self-directed and self-regulated learning. The article also provides insights about the design of learning analytics and examples of experiences that challenge traditional implementations of learning analytics.

Active Learning: 3 Easy Ways for Higher Education LecturesJanet Corral
This short faculty development session covers 3 easy ways in which faculty may use active learning strategies in their lectures. I present some of the evidence base in support of each strategy, and give tips on how to successfully incorporate these strategies into your teaching.
Perspectives on implementing a vision for developing staff digital capabilityJisc
This talk presents two different approaches to operationalising a strategic vision around the development of staff digital capability, from both higher and further education contexts.
You will be able to hear from one university and one college who will outline their vision for staff digital capability, discuss their approaches and strategies to achieving that vision, and highlight the lessons learnt.
We'll end the workshop with a Q&A and discussion.
Embracing local devolution - two college's intriguing insights into respondin...Jisc
This talk will focus on the pilot project for the College Analytics Lab in the Manchester city region,and discuss how multi-organisation collaboration around common interests can use new technologies to advantage.
Hear how Greater Manchester colleges, Chamber of Commerce and New Economy are working together to match supply and demand to inform devolution skills funding and college planning. By the end of the session you will have a key insight into how two colleges have successfully engaged with partners and ideas for replicating similar activity in your own organisation.
An evolution of Vscene in action - John WilsonJisc
The Jisc Vscene videoconferencing service will be evolving over the coming year with help from our new strategic partner, Ajenta. With this new partnership, there will be improved focus on enhancing the teaching and learning experience.
In this workshop you can discover how, through VScene, students learn through virtual classrooms, e-learning and MOOCS as well as enhanced interoperability with desktop applications and mobile devices.
Teaching and learning has been enhanced for a community of 1200 physicists, academics, research staff and postgraduate students, whilst significantly reducing their annual teaching and collaboration overheads. How? By effective use of VScene.
Further education colleges use a variety of approaches to track and monitor student engagement and performance.
By integrating these approaches with the national learning records warehouse, we can move from descriptive to predictive analytics, making a significant impact on retention, achievement and successful outcomes for learners through timely, targeted interventions and support.
See how data from Grade Tracker, developed at Bedford College, is being integrated into the Jisc learning analytics architecture.
Inclusively enhancing learning from lecture recordings: using Synote without ...Jisc
The government have clarified changes to the Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA), which mean that universities need to find ways to make teaching and learning more inclusive.
This demonstration will enable participants to experience how Synote has been used at the University of Southampton and other universities to address DSA cut by enhancing a lecture recording through providing an online searchable interactive transcript time synchronised with video, audio and notes.
Automatic machine captioning is affordable compared with professional human captioning and notetaking and can give just as good results when students are provided with the ability to correct any speech recognition errors in the transcript.
Making best use of technology for employability: the Jisc employability toolkitJisc
This session will provide a walkthrough of the models, guidance and examples of effective technology use for employability included within in the Jisc employability toolkit.
The Jisc Vscene videoconferencing service will be evolving over the coming year with help from our new strategic partner, Ajenta. With this new partnership, there will be improved focus on enhancing the teaching and learning experience.

Institutional visions for a digital student experienceJisc
This panel discussion will explore institutional visions for a digitally-enhanced student experience.
We will hear the views of leaders on how technology is changing the design, delivery and assessment of learning for both on campus and remote learners; what challenges and opportunities this poses and how this is supporting their students to prepare for a digitally-enabled workplace.
The panel will also share their thinking on how digital content and resources are being successfully integrated into a digitally-enhanced curricula.
Increasing student satisfaction by closing the feedback loopJisc
One of the biggest challenges universities and student unions’ face today when enhancing the student experience is closing the feedback loop between students and staff. With a constant stream of survey and systems, university staff struggle to demonstrate how they are acting on student feedback in a timely and relevant manner. As a result this leads to students feeling further disengaged and dissatisfied as they feel their voice is not heard or do not adequately supported.
Unitu aims to provide an effective way for universities to engage with the student voice and close the feedback loop. We will present findings, best practices, potential consequences of an ineffective feedback system and how we've discovered a great way to close the feedback loop and improve the student experience.
Exploiting digital collections in learning, teaching and researchJisc
The use of digital resources in teaching and learning relies on the ability to discover online content and the reliability of such content for use and reuse.
Jisc has developed a training package on making your digital resources easier to discover to help content creators optimise their digital collections for discovery, use, reuse and citation so that they can have a stronger impact on teaching, learning and research.
Join this demonstration to see the actions collections owners can take to assist resource discovery and to find out more about the training.
For the latest free CDE seminar we were very pleased to welcome Jon Bellum, Provost and Senior Vice-President at Colorado State University-Global Campus, to Senate House to talk about a case study for retention in online learning.
Colorado State University-Global Campus is a 100% online public institution focused on providing adults with career-relevant bachelor’s and master’s degrees. A university wide retention and persistence program was designed to provide its non-traditional students with the support they needed throughout the student lifecycle. Since implementing this process improvement, CSU-Global has been able to maintain first-to-third term retention rates that exceed 80% and a four-year retention/graduation rate that exceeds 75%.
The presentation ran through the processes involved in implementing this programme and reviewed the outcomes.
The slides and seminar is of interest to anyone involved in developing courses for online or flexible delivery – audio for the session can be found at www.cde.london.ac.uk.

Presentation by Pat Lockley, Learning Systems Developer, University of London Undergraduate Laws Programme. MOOC: English Common Law (https://www.coursera.org/course/engcomlaw)
Last year the University of London International Programmes launched four MOOCs on the Coursera platform and the report on their implementation was published in November (http://www.londoninternational.ac.uk/sites/default/files/documents/mooc_report-2013.pdf). Since then, members of the teams who delivered these MOOCS have been asked many questions about their experiences so the Centre for Distance Education (www.cde.london.ac.uk) arranged a seminar to provide more information on the practicalities of how you actually set up and run such a course.

On 9 December 2013 we were very pleased to be able to welcome Professor Asha Kanwar (President & CEO of the Commonwealth of Learning) to Senate House to conduct a free lunchtime seminar “Old wine in new bottles? Exploring MOOCs”.
The special session was chaired by Professor Alan Tait (Open University, CDE Visiting Fellow), and was an opportunity to engage with one of the world’s leading advocates of learning for development.
MOOCs seem to be a natural progression in the different stages of the development of distance education. Starting with external degrees, correspondence courses, open and distance learning, and more recently OER, MOOCs are yet another phase of opening up access to education. But will MOOCs really make a difference to democratizing education? Will they transform pedagogy and positively impact learning outcomes? How will they negotiate the digital divide? Or are MOOCs simply old wine in new bottles? This presentation will address these questions and explore the ways in which MOOCs can play a positive role in transforming education.

2. The policy context
• Professional educators connected by technology to
empower, and inspire effective teaching (US Plan 2010)
• Promote professional learning communities between
policy, practice and research (UNESCO 2011)
• There needs to be a greater prioritisation of teaching
partnerships between technologists, learning support
specialists and academics, and an end to the ‘not
invented here’ syndrome… Good practice must also be
shared. (HEFCE OLTF, 2011)
Sept 2012 cc: by-nc-sa
3. Teachers as an innovative
professional learning community
• Reconceptualising teaching as ‘a design science’
• Teachers building on the designs of others
• Articulating their pedagogy
• Adopting, adapting, testing, improving learning designs
• Co-creating and sharing learning designs
A computational representation of pedagogic design
Sept 2012 cc: by-nc-sa
4. Can learning design be
supported computationally?
It’s difficult, but it’s worth a try, because…
Teachers need much more support than they get to make
the most of learning technologies
If they can learn together, collaborate, build on the work
of others, they can build this knowledge
Not in just in staff development courses, not from
books, not through exhortation, but in the same way as
other designers collaborate and learn…
… using a learning design support tool

11. Comments on the PPC
• [The pie-chart] is one of the most useful features … it
gives a good overview of the balance between different
learning experiences
• I rarely consider how the students' time is apportioned …
it's good to be made to think about this.
• Seeing how the sessions are shaping up in such a visual
medium …. would probably make me think more
carefully about providing a mix of activities

Once tested and evaluated
with students, export
(with metadata) to shared

29. Comments on the approach
• Teachers respond positively to the Learning Designer tools
and see this as a way of improving teaching, and potentially of
saving time
• The Learning Designer concepts of sharing designs, reuse,
adaptation, advice on TEL, analysis of the learning experience,
suggestions of design alternatives, and categorisation of
designs, were all welcomed by teachers
• Teachers commented on the added value of the detailed
descriptions of pedagogy, which enable them to have a more
in-depth conversation about their practice and what makes a
learning design more effective

Designer also address?

31. Teachers as innovative co-creators
of technology-based pedagogies
Features of teaching as ‘a design science’:
• Teachers adopting, adapting, testing, improving,
sharing learning designs
• Teaching as collaborative learning, supported by
online collaborative design tools and repositories
• A theory-based computational representation of
pedagogic design that migrates across subjects and
clarifies learning benefits and teaching costs
