Learning ecosystems are a powerful mindset for transforming learning. This webinar focuses on Sprout Labs’ ecosystems of learning technologies. The session will be a mixture of software demonstration and sharing the learning tactics that our platforms enable.
This won't be a standard software demonstration. It will be organised around the story of a learner, manager, and L&D person who are working in a sophisticated integrated ecosystem that enables them to learn while working.
Some of the topics we will explored where:
The power of open and flexible technologies.
What it means to be working in an xAPI enabled data rich environment
How to enable social learning
Measuring on the job performance using checklists
Building learning campaigns
How cloud-based eLearning authoring platforms increase the agility of L&D teams
These are the class preparation sheets for my EDP 370: Applied Child Development Course. This course is taught as a 'hacked' course. Lectures are prerecorded for students to listen to at home, we complete activities in-class. The culminating project is the Children's Thinking Project (adapted from Penelope Oldfather & West, 1999). Thus, we integrated a series of interviews from American Public Media: Dick Gordon's The Story radio program into the pedagogy for students to develop their interviewing skills.
This presentation accompanies a webinar by Victor Ngobeni from Microsoft, South Africa. In the webinar Victor says, "“In this webinar, I would like to focus how Technology and Pedagogy mix as one of the units of the Teaching with Technology course, but I want to do this rather differently in a way of making it more interactive. I would like to make sure that the participants share strategies/ideas amongst each other of how they are able to “marry” the methods that they are using in the classroom with the relevant technology tools."

Ben Young, Director of Learning Solutions, presented on top Moodle plugins for blended learning. Blended learning combines online and in-person learning and is popular because it allows learning at your own pace, focuses on interests, and caters to different learning styles. Research shows blended learning improves outcomes. It saves time and money by reducing infrastructure costs and allowing training to reach many students at once in a repeatable model. Common Moodle plugins that support blended learning include Big Blue Button for live sessions, progress bars, dialogues, attendance tracking, multimedia, quizzes, and wikis. The presentation outlined next steps for implementing blended programs which include setting goals and objectives, considering learners, designing the blend, and measuring success
Microsoft Office 365 is a collection of cloud-based productivity tools including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneDrive. It allows multiple users to collaborate on documents simultaneously from any device. The key advantages are access from anywhere, automatic updates, mobile access, and 1TB of cloud storage. Common uses include shared document editing for school or work projects, communication through Outlook, and organization with calendars and tasks. Maintaining a strong digital presence through profiles on LinkedIn and other social media can help people network and improve their chances of finding employment.
The document discusses designing collaborative workspaces to promote productivity. It covers topics like the success rate of IT projects, Agile and Scrum principles, and features of effective team spaces. It suggests that collaborative spaces should allow for both open work areas and private spaces, be designed similarly for virtual teams, and include areas for different types of work like individual focused work and social interactions. Groups are asked to discuss features of effective teams they've experienced and to create a wishlist for an ideal collaborative workspace.
Classroom of the Future - Technology and BeyondMaritza Heuvel
Delivered at Innovate Schools 2014, 9 October 2014.
***
The use of educational technology inside and outside the classroom is changing the way we teach. New models like the"flipped classroom” have emerged as more effective ways to transfer knowledge and engage learners meaningfully.
However, technology is just one aspect of the learning environment in classrooms. In this talk, I touch on the design of physical classroom space, and question the very need for constructs like grade divisions and classroom walls.
I touch on examples such as the School of One in New York, visuals of fresh classroom designs and South African experiments, like Judi Francisco's JustBlendit! experiment at Micklefield Primary.

UNC- Creating Engaging, Collaborative Learning Spaces in Second LifeSarah Robbins
The document discusses how identities are expressed in online learning spaces and virtual worlds like Second Life. It notes that individuals have multiple identities relating to relationships, professions, activities, personality and style. These identities can be real, virtual, or projected. When designing online learning spaces, it's important to consider what identities and relationships are enabled and constrained by the interface. For authentic learning, spaces should allow students' real identities, while engagement comes from working towards virtual identities. Forming community involves sharing projected potentials.
Designing the Future of Work and LearningSam Scott
This document discusses trends in collaboration in workplaces and classrooms that are changing how spaces are designed. In workplaces, factors like changing demographics, the nature of work, and new technologies are driving more collaborative and flexible workspaces. In classrooms, blended learning models that combine online and in-person instruction are becoming more common, requiring reliable AV systems. The document provides considerations for successful collaboration and outlines ten factors to consider for AV design in collaborative spaces, such as connectivity, device support, content sharing, and videoconferencing.
Massachusetts Collaborative Work SpacesMassEHealth

A majority of the document then focuses on the various types of collaborative workspaces available across Massachusetts, including incubators, accelerators, makerspaces, and co-working spaces. It provides details on the programming, support, and space offered by different types of workspaces, as well as examples of specific incubator programs located around the state.
The document discusses using technology to help students transition to university through a collaborative blended learning script (CSCBL). It describes a CSCBL activity used with 241 engineering students to familiarize them with campus facilities. Students used mobile phones and online platforms to collaborate and learn about the campus. The activity was later improved using IMS Learning Design and Google Forms/Spreadsheets for more efficient orchestration and group management of larger numbers of students. Evaluations found the CSCBL approach effective for motivating students and facilitating their introduction to university methods.
