Small Group Discussion for a MOOC PlatformMike Sharples
This document discusses designing small group discussions for MOOC platforms like FutureLearn. It proposes creating voluntary "study groups" of around 30 learners who remain together in asynchronous discussion for the duration of the course. A pilot study with 12 courses found that learners liked interacting with peers in their group and appreciated educator contributions. However, discussions sometimes decreased without direction on group work. More structure and guidance is needed for both learners on how to work in groups and educators on designing learning activities for study groups.
Project-based learning involves student inquiry in response to an open-ended question or challenge. Students learn key academic content and 21st century skills like communication, collaboration, and critical thinking by researching and creating an end product or performance. Some fundamentals of project-based learning include beginning with a vision of the final product, incorporating student voice and choice, and providing feedback and opportunities for revision. Proponents argue that it leads to deeper understanding, builds workplace skills, and motivates students. Teachers have flexibility in how much and how often they incorporate project-based learning into their curriculum.
Project based learning (PBL) is an instructional approach that uses real-world problems as the context for students to gain knowledge and skills. Through PBL, students engage in an extended inquiry process in response to complex questions and challenges. This helps develop skills like collaboration, time management, and leadership. PBL improves student engagement and prepares them for 21st century careers by making them responsible for their own learning. An example is a civics class where students each create their own country and relate government concepts to its systems as they learn. Technology can enhance PBL by allowing students to represent their work through tools like Photoshop, social media, and digital presentations.
Project based learning is a teaching method that uses real-world problems or challenges as the starting point for inquiry. It is characterized by students making decisions about the project framework, designing processes to solve problems or address challenges, and collaboratively accessing and managing information. The teacher plans learning strategies and assesses students in a transparent manner using various assessments, while students conduct research, learn new concepts, manage their time, take ownership of their work, and apply their learning through action. Benefits of project based learning include students becoming more creative and active learners and forming positive relationships within a powerful learning community focused on achievement.
Project-based learning is a teaching method where students investigate and respond to engaging questions or challenges over an extended period of time.

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.
Project-based learning is a teaching method where students investigate and respond to an engaging question or challenge over an extended period of time. It requires the use of both fundamental skills and 21st century skills like teamwork, problem-solving, and research. Example projects include having students build robots by assembling them and collaborating with classmates. Project-based learning helps develop skills needed for living in a knowledge-based society and allows students more control over their learning.

Malcolm Brown and Veronica Diaz will moderate this online seminar with Tanya Joosten, Dylan Barth, and Nicole Weber from the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.
As the demand for blended and online learning opportunities increases, so does the need to ensure the quality of online education through faculty development programming. And with the increase in the diffusion of blended and online programming across higher education institutions, stakeholders are looking for ways to ensure the quality of the student experience and better understand the impact on student outcomes. Recently, many of us have been asked to provide evidence of the effectiveness of our faculty development programming: administrators are looking for a return on investment in faculty development to ensure quality in blended and online programming, as we are seeing decreases in state funding and enrollments, which leads to cut budgets. In order to for us to determine the effectiveness of our programming using a backwards design approach, we need to first understand what is a good online or blended course as well as what competencies are required of faculty to teach blended and online courses and how those can be best facilitated in a faculty development program. Then we can consider how to evaluate the impact on student outcomes.
This workshop will offer a collaborative and interactive opportunity to connect with colleagues to consider and construct how the effectiveness of faculty development programming can be determined and disseminated. A model of evaluation for a faculty development program will be shared.
Learning Objectives
By actively participating in this seminar, attendees will be able to:
Identify the characteristics of a good blended and online course, including the pedagogical model
Determine what elements and formats should be considered in designing a faculty development program
Share strategies for evaluating the effectiveness of your faculty development program at the course, program, and institutional levels from multiple perspectives, including students, colleagues, researchers, and administration
Understand how these steps fit into a model of evaluation for learning technologies and pedagogical innovation
