National Teaching Fellow 2012
Grainne Conole gave a webinar on open practices and their implications for education. She discussed the evolution of technologies for education like multimedia, the internet, learning objects, and learning management systems. She also summarized resources on open educational resources including repositories, evaluations, and case studies. Conole argued that while open practices and social media offer opportunities, the potential of these technologies and resources is not fully realized due to a lack of skills, time, and replication of poor pedagogy.
