Teaching Medieval History: The E-Learning LandscapeJamie Wood
Co-presentation with Dr Antonella Luizzo Scorpo (History, University of Lincoln) from the Teaching History in Higher Education: the 14th annual Higher Education Academy Teaching and Learning Conference 2012
This project focuses on Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) and its goal is to make people aware of its importance and increasing use.
This study shows the difference between a Virtual Learning Environment and other educational websites and how we can understand its specificities. This paper addresses Moodle, which is a modular object-oriented dynamic learning environment used by study communities all over the world for free; and EnglishTown, which is an on-line English school using Adobe’s Adobe Connect 8. Both are accessed by many people and can help us be aware of what a VLE is.

EATAW conference - Managing Boundaries by Dujardin and FarbeyFlorence Dujardin
This short paper reports on the evaluation of an induction module offered on a Master’s course offered exclusively as e-learning. The aim was to ascertain whether the module arrangements provided a bridge between the professional community that students belong to and the academic community. An evaluation tool was used heuristically to assess components of induction (Forrester et al. 2005). Findings suggest that the module was successful in helping students negotiate their entry into postgraduate study and e-learning, and that the components provided a valuable tool for module evaluation.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Learning outcome Activities Assessment
Monitor, evaluate and
reflect on your teaching
and the learning of your
students
• Seminar on reflective
practice supported by a
group blog
• Sharing progress updates
with mentor
• Gather student feedback
using online polls and
VLE access logs
• Formatively assessed
through:
• mentor observation
of teaching
• tutor comments in
the blog
• Summatively assessed in
a reflective report
including a discussion of
student data (including
ethical issues)
(Inspired by Rogerson-Revell 2015)
10. Digital learners
• ‘Digital natives’ Prensky (2001a, 2001b)
• Technologically deterministic “othering of youth” (Herring 2008)
• A “dangerous opposition” (Bayne and Ross 2007)
• Uncritical assumptions
• Savvy or superficial users?
• Little attention to international students, mature learners, and disabilities
• Second-order digital divide (Brotcorne et al. 2010)
• An alternative metaphor
• the digital visitor/resident continuum (White and Le Cornu 2011)
12. Mapping digital behaviours (White & Le Cornu 2011)
Internet as a tool used to fulfil a
specific goal (e.g. looking up a
Wikipedia entry or a news website).
Visitors are not ‘less’ digitally literate.
The visitor’s instrumental behaviour
has value in education contexts since
it is goal-oriented.
Internet as a place which gives
residents “a sense of being present
with others… with the effect of
foregrounding a sense of digital
identity”.
‘Residents’ contribute and share
information (e.g. by creating or
responding to a blog post or tweet)
and develop social networks in the
process.
