English Language Teaching: how should technology support teaching and learning?Rick Shepherd
A quick look at how technology is used and how it should or could be used to further student - centred learning and move from a mere substitution to more paradigm-changing classrooms. How publishers can continue to be revelevant in the face of the OER revolution
Similar to Creating a social media mediated learning experience (LILAC17) (20)
Social Media means that our classroom, either face to face or online has escaped. This keynote presentation for the OU eSTEeM community conference (April 2016) explores some of the challenges and opportunities.
Become a Linux Academy - The Mad Idea!Andrew Smith
Would you want to become an educational establishment that teaches Linux ... would you like to support a community that is encouraging educators to teach Linux and in turn become a potential teacher of Linux.
If it seems like a mad idea, it probably is, so please do watch.
A presentation I gave in 2010 on the then current state of national education and what vendor opportunities were available.
Sadly I think that we will be losing some of this.

Hannah Gore - Senior Producer: MOOCs
at The Open University. Thesis writing
doctorate student. Canine cohabiting

random things in life … @HRGore
Andrew Smith - Academic, Examiner,
Author, Linux/Cisco/Security, Packet
Tracer & prog rock fan. Geekologist &
Quantum Nerd who dabbles with social
media … @teraknor
7. Context
● STEM has c600-800 students every year studying
Commercial Networking …. Cisco Systems enabled
CCNA or CCNP based modules, having reached
8000+ Cisco Academy students since 2005
● While in OU terms, this may not seem significant,
in vocational computing we are seen as ‘giants’
● Engaged in social media activity since September
2013
● We teach nerds network engineering
8. A light bulb moment ...
Lets use social media to enhance the teaching of one of
our Network Engineering modules. Ensuring that it leaks
out onto the Internet as well as supports the learning of
our current students.
Using social media to deliver a form of knowledge
nugget or intellectual reinforcement technique.
While the focus has been on ‘Cisco’ we know that this
translates to all.
9. Leaky ...
The real idea is to enable a pedagogical
(or heutagogical) experience by allowing
microteaching of set content to leak out
onto the interwebs.
10. Free is a price we are willing to pay
● we cannot predict what platform our
students/customers prefer to use
○ it could be a smart phone
○ or a web browser
○ or a specific application
● nor should we care
● developers everywhere have created the software
for us
● so, lets use them all
12. So what platforms do we use (1)
● Creation of an ‘Open University Cisco’ group
● Currently over 550+ members
● Tends to attract a variety of professionals (which is
obvious)
○ Cisco CCNA/CCNP engineers beyond the
confines of the module being taught
○ Open University Cisco Alumni
13. So what platforms do we use (2)
● Created a fan page (700+) more from within Open
University Course
● Also specialist Packet Tracer >> Mac group (1750+)
○ Linked to my pedagogical simulation work
● Very eclectic mix of members
● Occasional questions come in via this route
14. So what platforms do we use (3)
● 1080+ followers
● 30% seem to be from within the course itself
● some we pick up from retweets, faves and
exchanges with @CiscoNetAcad
● we do get frequent twitter exchanges with a small
section (50 est) members of this community
● also embedded within moodle - reaching 450
students on current module presentation
● we will discuss ‘impressions’ later
15. So what platforms do we use (4)
● 130 followers
● the quietest of all …
● however it does help in search engine rank
● but … I use the Google to RSS site …
○ http://gplus-to-rss.appspot.com/
○ we see some using RSS readers
16. So what platforms do we use (5)
● Allows depth to some of the content
● has been useful in sharing some internal ideas,
externally
● looking to evolve as a source of additional content
17. So what platforms do we use (6)
● we have some deliberate short ‘named’ URLs
● used when we link to internal university content
● also used for occasional course promotion
18. So what platforms do we use (7a)
● Periscope - Mini Monday Networking
● Practical Streaming Video Show Tell sessions
around one specific network engineering
topic/concept/skill
● Persistent for 24 hours
● Session length ten mins
● Typical audience varies from 40 to 120 per session
● EXPERIMENTAL
19. So what platforms do we use (7b)
● Facebook Live – NetNerd – a series of short
webinars, over five evenings for one week
● Practical Streaming Video Show Tell sessions
around one specific network engineering
topic/concept/skill
● Persistent forever
● Session length ten mins
● Typical audience 250+
● EXPERIMENTAL
● Now using for ‘Cisco’ teacher training –
Audience 700 to 1200
20. So what platforms do we use (8)
● Micro PodCasting
● No more than ten minutes of audio
● Idea stolen from Curtin Cisco Academy for Vision
Impaired and supported by Royal National College
for the Blind (in the UK)
● Demo/Explanation entirely audio yet kept
deliberately short in keeping with affordance of
Social Media
● Is 1/2 an hour too long for a podcast in the social
media space
21. So what platforms do we use (9)
● IFTTT - IF This Then That
● Creation of Rule (recipes) for social media
integration - also works with IoE technology
● You do one thing on social media - it will
automatically syndicate to other platforms
● One input becomes multiple outputs
22. So what platforms do we use (10)
● Hoot suite
● Multi Social Media Platform Scheduling and
Automation
● Allows you to schedule one message at a time on
multiple accounts (for free)
● Allows you to schedule multiple (350) messages
on multiple accounts via CSV for USD$ 9.99 per
month
● We use this for Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIN and
Google+
25. Engagement Methods (1a)
● Sequential CSV’s* of Course related content
○ We know our study calendar (you may know
this as a scheme of work)
○ We know more-or-less when students will be
covering content
● Use a separate CSV with weekly reminders
○ what should you be studying
○ what assignments are due
○ day schools (classes) or other module events
● As we are externally facing, occasional information
on the course opportunities we offer
○ Covert rather than overt
*Comma Separated Values
26. Engagement Methods (1b)
● The sequence must follow the study plan -
however, the student can be:
● Ahead as this is a reminder
● On time as this is reinforcement
● or behind as this is foresight
27. Engagement Methods (2)
● Why CSV …
○ they work with the Hootsuite publisher tools
○ but no repetition
○ there has to be less than 140 characters, as
Twitter is the lowest denominator
● I generated around 1100 automated updates,
which can be reused, amended, added to etc
● I am actually lazy by default and wonder why we
automate so little
28. Engagement Methods (2a)
I am automating at this precise moment - there are
updates going out every 5 - 10 minutes on @OUCisco
29. Engagement Methods (2b)
● Do not underestimate your
reach
● You will easily go beyond
your own ‘campus’
● Do not simply stick to local
times as community is
potentially global
● You will eventually discover
the best times per
presentation
30. Engagement Methods (3)
● Do not fear memes
● Use plenty of images
○ Humour is needed to break up the
technical/academic content
○ You have to decide on what the right mix is
○ this is a module, where written word is
priority, yet images help
31. Engagement Methods (4)
● YouTube and other video sources
○ These consume time … therefore for this run
I focussed on humour
○ I used …
■ the day the routers died
■ Mr Bean taking an exam
■ the medieval help desk
■ elders of the internet
● I am looking to expand these with some teccie
vid’s, I have already produced two with our
Knowledge Media Institute which we have already
shared in the next course
● Also one of our associate lecturers has been
producing short teccie YouTube clips – which we
are sharing
32. Engagement Methods (5)
● Talk to them via social media … they do not bite!!!
● Questions do come in via the different social
media outlets
○ Engage, but also allow others to engage as
well
○ Encourage those who are also engaging, they
are your greatest allies
33. Engagement Methods (6)
● Open questions work … followers like to answer
these
● Enquiring about the opinion of the audience also
gets a response.
● Take note of which posts get a reaction, it will
surprise you … some of the tougher subjects are
more likely to get a response
● Be prepared to ditch posts or reuse posts
34. Finding your allies
● There is nothing wrong with a getting a few
‘friends’ or ‘colleagues’ involved
● Very useful for …
○ RT’s in Twitter
○ Shares in Facebook
○ Likes on LinkedIN
37. Opportunity!
We believe that …
We do not understand impact – it goes beyond
followership.
We could create a social media curated course
that is driven by Facebook (or Twitter)
There is also much to be gained from
‘livestreaming’
