In this presentation, I explore online learning, knowledge mobilization via multimodal means, and social media data mining as emergent forms of scholarship.
I want to use our online presence as a way to help us think through one big idea: who we are when we are online as educators. What do professors do online? Is there anything special about faculty members who are online? Does their use of social media differ from the general population? Do they also post pictures of their children food, and cats? In this presentation, I will discuss how/why academics use social media and online networks, and explore aspects of online participation that is unique to scholars. I will discuss the opportunities and tensions that exist in online spaces, and share recent original research that shows how small data, as well as big data, can help us make sense of professors’ (and thereby students’) participation in online spaces.

Messy realities: Investigating learners' experiences in MOOCsGeorge Veletsianos
Amy Collier and George Veletsianos discuss the need for rich methodological and theoretical explorations of learning in MOOCs. Presented at ELI 2014, New Orleans: What do we know about learners' experiences in MOOCs? While surveys and big data yield insights into general behavioral patterns, these detached methods can distance us rather than help us understand the human condition. As a result, the phenomenon of "learning in a MOOC" is understudied and undiscovered. In this session, presenters will share their findings from two small-scale qualitative investigations of MOOC learners' experiences. Attendees will discuss findings from the investigations and generate research questions and methods that advance understanding of MOOC learners' experiences.

In this presentation we describe various features and scaffolds embedded in a Computer Science high school course that is supported by an online learning environment. To develop this course we followed a design-based research approach with problem-based learning as our underlying pedagogy. In collaboration with computer scientists, Computer Science teachers, and instructional designers, we sought to re-envision Computer Science instruction while creating an innovation that is flexible enough to adapt to local contexts without losing its essence.
How do learners in MOOCs attempt to resolve challenges they face?George Veletsianos
We draw on interviews with more than 90 students from four massive open online courses (MOOCs) to investigate how students define challenging experiences/elements within MOOCs and how they then overcome those challenges. Findings enrich nascent scholarly understanding of MOOC learner experiences, highlight dimensions of learning that are not captured by tracking logs, and provide new approaches that MOOC developers can take in improving student learning experiences.

Today's institutions of higher learning bear little resemblance to the institutions that preceded them, as technological, economic, political, and socio-cultural factors transform societies and the institutions that exist within them. In this talk, I will explore the significant opportunities and challenges facing today's higher institutions of learning. I will discuss my research findings on social media, open online learning, and networked participation, and examine emerging models for learning, teaching, and scholarship. Through this discussion, we will reflect on the values and ideals of educational and knowledge systems and the congruency of these ideals with the systems that are currently being created.
Social Media in Learning, Teaching, and Scholarship: 6 Tales of PracticeGeorge Veletsianos
Keynote at the 2013 Teaching & Learning to the Power of Technology Conference at Saskatchewan, Canada.
Abstract: The last ten years have seen dramatic changes in the ways millions of individuals connect, communicate, and network via technology and through social media. Social media have also penetrated the higher education sector, and it has been posited that they have influenced not only the ways students connect with each other, but also the ways scholarship is organized, delivered, enacted, and experienced. In this keynote, I will share six research-based stories describing the integration and use of social media in higher education. These stories paint an intricate picture of the use of social media in education and juxtapose three perspectives: (a) social media use guided by techno-enthusiasm and techno-determinism, (b) social media as tools to question and circumvent traditional elements of scholarly practice, and (c) social media as transformative technology.

Presentation at the annual Emerging Technologies for Online Learning conference focusing on networked scholarship. The concept of networked scholarship is expressed in different ways in the literature, ranging from digital scholarship to social scholarship to open scholarship. In this presentation, I discussed two themes that have arisen from my 3+ years of qualitative and ethnographic studies into the practices of higher education scholars. Both of these themes help us make better sense of scholars’ digital participation and networked scholarship. They also help us better describe online scholarly networks and the lives and practices of digital scholars.
The first theme refers to the notion of scholars using networks to enact digital/open scholarship and circumvent restrictions to the sharing of knowledge.
The second theme is one that I am still developing. Specifically, in my research I found that social media and online social networks function as places where some academics express and experience care.

With the arrival of the social, participative web often referred to as Web 2.0 came talk of Learning 2.0. Learning 2.0 can be summarised as collaborative, project-based, self-directed, boundary-busting and above all connected. We discuss some national horizon scanning, and the ways Goldsmiths learners and teachers are using what the Web has to offer. We then discuss some of the challenges this poses for learners and academic teachers across higher education institutions, including issues of authority, credit, assessment, facilitation, intellectual property, data protection and support.

Social Media and Education
Class Objectives
• To provide an overview of the use of social media in educational institutions
• To explore how social media is used to advance education
Introduction
The internet has opened up spaces for individuals from different parts of the world,
generations, class, gender and race to gain access to higher education. These forms
of “borderless” learning platforms allow professors to facilitate linear interactions
with students as students take charge of their learning by posing questions and
posting content virtually. The popularity of online courses is demonstrated by a
study conducted by the learningSloan Foundation study consisting of more than
2,500 colleges and universities. The study findings indicated that online enrolments
were growing substantially faster than overall higher education enrolment, and the
17% growth rate in online enrolments far exceeds the 1.2% growth rate in the
overall higher education population (Allen & Seaman, 2010, cited in LeNoue, Hall,
Eighmy, 2011, pp. 4-5). Allen and Seaman classified an online course as one in which
more than 80% of content is delivered online and reported that over 4.6 million
students were taking such courses during the fall 2008 term (p.5). Clearly, online
courses are becoming a preferred means of learning mainly because of their
convenience—students are able to navigate, full time employment, family
responsibilities and other commitments. Many online instructional settings utilize
content management systems that allow for a two way communication between
students and the professor. The forums deviate from lecture structures and
professors in the online context as seen as facilitators of knowledge encouraging
active and experiential learning and teamwork to enhance cooperation and
collaboration. Would you categorize the online classes provided by UCW as a social
media forum?
Beyond online classrooms, universities use social media mainly for marketing,
communication and alumni relations. Universities now combine the use of social
media with their own homepages as a recruitment tools (For example, last year
UCW’s homepage provided access to Facebook, Twitter and YouTube). Universities
are also using social media to reach out to their alumni. A 2012 survey by the
Council for the Advancement and Support of Education (an association of university
and college professionals in development, alumni affairs and communications)
shows that 83 percent of U.S. colleges and universities are using social media to
engage alumni, with 96 percent on Facebook, 80 percent on Twitter, 73 percent on
YouTube, and 68 percent on LinkedIn (Frank, 2013). These statistics give an
illustration of how social media are used for communication between universities
and the public.

Keynote at the 2013 FITSI Conference (University of New Hampshire).
Summary: We live in opportune times. We live at a time when education features prominently in the national press and discussions focusing on improving the ways we design education are a daily occurrence. Stanford President John Hennessy notes that “a tsunami” is coming – and Pearson executives are calling the impending change an “avalanche.” We are told that “education is broken” and that technology provides appropriate solutions for the perils facing education. But, what do these solutions look like? Will these be the times that capture Dewey’s and Freire’s visions of education? Will these be times of empowered students, democratic educational systems, learning webs, and affordable access to education? Or, will these be the times where efficiency, venture capital, and market values dictate what education will look like? Is technology transforming education? If so, how? During this keynote presentation, I will highlight how learning and education are (and are not) changing with the emergence of certain technologies, social behaviors, and cultural expectations. Using empirical research and evidence I will discuss myths and truths pertaining to online education and present ways that faculty members and educators can make meaningful contributions to the future educational systems that we are creating today.
What is Heutagogy? And And how can we use it to help develop self-determined ...Lisa Marie Blaschke
Today's employees must readily adapt to quickly changing and complex work environments, and employers are looking to educational institutions to produce employment-ready students who will hit the ground running. Learning to learn has become an overarching theme, and as a result, interest in the theory of heutagogy, or the study of self-determined learning, is on the rise. This webinar would provide an overview of the theory as well as research- and practice-based examples of how we can help guide our students along the pedagogy-andragogy-heutagogy (PAH) continuum to become more self-determined learners.

Coping with online harassment: women scholars' experiencesGeorge Veletsianos
Although scholars increasingly use online platforms for public, digital, and networked scholarship, the research examining their experiences of harassment and abuse online is scant. In
this study, we interviewed 14 women scholars who experienced online harassment in order to understand how they coped with this phenomenon. We found that scholars engaged in reactive,
anticipatory, preventive, and proactive coping strategies. In particular, scholars engaged in strategies aimed at self-protection and resistance, while often responding to harassment by
acceptance and self-blame. These findings have important implications for practice and research, including practical recommendations for personal, institutional, and platform responses to harassment, as well as scholarly recommendations for future research into scholars’ experiences of harassment.
I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends: An Ecological Model of Support...George Veletsianos
This presentation contributes to understanding the phenomenon of online abuse and harassment toward women scholars. We draw on data collected from 14 interviews with women scholars from the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and report on the types of supports they sought during and after their experience with online abuse and harassment. We found that women scholars rely on three levels of support: the first level includes personal and social support (such as encouragement from friends and family and outsourcing comment reading to others); the second includes organizational (such as university or institutional policy), technological (such as reporting tools on Twitter or Facebook), and sectoral (such as law enforcement) support; and, the third includes larger cultural and social attitudes and discourses (such as attitudes around gendered harassment and perceptions of the online/offline divide). While participants relied on social and personal support most frequently, they commonly reported relying on multiple supports across all three levels. We use an ecological model as our framework to demonstrate how different types of support are interconnected, and suggest that support for targets of online abuse must integrate aspects of all three levels.
Presentation by the BC Open Education fellows presenting on OER adoption trends in BC (by institution and by discipline) from 2012-2017, including eight specific patterns of individual and group adoptions.
This presentation reports on the experiences of three faculty members designing and developing a Master’s degree in Learning and Technology when they adopted openness as a core value and key design principle. While the benefits of open textbooks and OER are compelling, little is known about programs that are designed with openness as a core value. What does it mean to embrace open practices and embody an open philosophy at the program and course level within a Master’s program? What are faculty experiences with such an approach? How can the student experience be optimized? In what ways does openness support a diverse student body? What tensions arise and what supports are required to facilitate the transition to an MA degree that not only uses open textbooks but is defined by openness?
When participating online, individuals draw on the limited cues they have available to create for themselves an imagined audience (Litt, 2012). Such audiences shape users’ social media practices, and thus the expression of identity online (Marwick & boyd, 2011). In this research we posed the following questions: (1) how do scholars conceptualize their audiences when participating on social media, and (2) how does that conceptualization impact their self-expression online? By answering these questions, we aim to provide a more nuanced picture of scholars’ social media practices and experiences. The audiences imagined by the scholars we interviewed appear to be well defined rather than the nebulous constructions often described in previous studies (e.g. Brake, 2012; Vitak, 2012). While scholar indicated that some audiences were unknown, none noted that their audience was unfamiliar. This study also shows that a misalignment exists between the audiences that scholars imagine encountering online and the audiences that higher education institutions imagine their scholars encountering online.
Successful, sunny, and smiling: The ways that student life and faculty are ...George Veletsianos
Canadian institutions of higher education use Twitter nearly universally. Yet, little research examines the narratives around college life constructed in their tweets. In this research, we used data mining and thematic analysis methods to examine this issue. Findings suggest institutions construct overwhelmingly positive representations that are incomplete and potentially misleading.
In this session, PhD students will investigate the significance of developing a research agenda and its role in professional development. Participants will explore how to craft and refine their own research agendas. Participants are invited to bring their research agendas (or statements of research interests) to share/critique.
Scholars are often encouraged to be public intellectuals – to ‘go online’ and engage with diverse audiences. Yet, scholars’ online activities appear to be rife with tensions, dilemmas, and conundrums. In this presentation, I discuss the major tensions and challenges scholars face when engaging networked publics and highlight some uncomfortable realities of being a public scholar. Evangelizing public and networked scholarship without acknowledging the existence of tensions is detrimental to the field and misleading to the scholars who may be considering becoming more networked, more public, and more “digital.” Individual scholars and institutions, both networked and otherwise need to evaluate the purposes and functions of scholarship and take part in devising systems that reflect and safeguard the values of scholarly inquiry.
A Systematic Analysis And Synthesis of the Empirical MOOC Literature Publishe...George Veletsianos
A deluge of empirical research became available on MOOCs in 2013-2015 and this research is available in disparate sources. This paper addresses a number of gaps in the scholarly understanding of MOOCs and presents a comprehensive picture of the literature by examining the geographic distribution, publication outlets, citations, data collection and analysis methods, and research strands of empirical research focusing on MOOCs during this time period. Results demonstrate that: more than 80% of this literature is published by individuals whose home institutions are in North America and Europe; a select few papers are widely cited while nearly half of the papers are cited zero times; and researchers have favored a quantitative if not positivist approach to the conduct of MOOC research, preferring the collection of data via surveys and automated methods. While some interpretive research was conducted on MOOCs in this time period, it was often basic and only a handful of studies were informed by methods traditionally associated with qualitative research (e.g., interviews, observations, focus groups). Analysis shows that there is limited research reported on instructor-related topics, and that even though researchers have attempted to identify and classify learners into various groupings, very little research examines the experiences of learner subpopulations.

In the first part, I will discuss how/why academics use social media and online networks for scholarship, and explore the opportunities and tensions that exist in these spaces. In the second part of the workshop, I will facilitate small group and large group conversations on this topic based on participant interests. Potential topics of exploration may include but are not limited to: social media participation strategies; self-disclosures on social media; capturing and analyzing social media data; ethics of social media research; social media use for networked learning.
Understanding Networked Scholars: Experiences and practices in online social ...George Veletsianos
Slides from an invited talk given to the The 4th International Conference on E-learning and Distance Education located in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia: Online journals, online forums, and social media such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are an integral part of open and digital scholarship, which is often seen as a major breakthrough in radically rethinking the ways in which knowledge is created and shared. In this presentation I situate networked practices in open/digital scholarship and explain what scholars and professors do online, and, why they do the things that the do. I conclude by describing 3 themes pervasive in scholarly networks: identify networks, networks of conflict, and networks of disclosure.
Emerging Practices in Open Online Learning EnvironmentsGeorge Veletsianos
In this talk, I describe a number of emerging practices associated with online learning, networked scholarship, and MOOCs. I bring together results from 3 upcoming studies to describe how online learning is an emerging practice, how the field is becoming more interdisciplinary, how learning analytics are becoming more pervasive, and how various experiences and practices (e.g., notetaking and the scheduling of online learning to fit adult life's realities) evade learning analytics methods.
What makes technologies and practices emerging are not specific technologies or practices, but the environments in which a particular technology or practice operate. This definition recognizes that learning, teaching, and scholarship are sociocultural phenomena situated in specific contexts and cultures.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
