The document discusses the shift from the traditional "course era" model of education to a "post-course era" model that emphasizes experiential and participatory learning. It provides examples of implementing high-impact practices and participatory pedagogies in college courses. The post-course era focuses on aggregating, filtering, and connecting information and experiences rather than static course-based learning. This represents a shift towards learning environments that more closely resemble participatory online culture.
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.

The Role of Digital Literacy in Writing InstructionAmy Goodloe
This presentation represents the culmination of many years of research into and experience with incorporating digital literacy into writing instruction. I originally prepared the presentation for my colleagues in the Program for Writing and Rhetoric at CU Boulder, but it has also been used by other universities to help introduce writing faculty to the changing nature of literacy.

Online Learning In The Social Web: social media, web2.0, elearning, educationMichelle Pacansky-Brock
One in four college students took at least one online class is 2008. Are these online learning experiences consistent with the participatory, collaborative learning experiences college students engage in outside of their formal learning environments? How can web 2.0 tools be leveraged to bridge this pedagogical gap and make online learning dynamic, engaging, community-oriented and, overall, more successful?

How may we engage students in inquiry-led and problem-based learning through the use of technology? In this presentation we will consider how active learning principles can be applied to the design of blended learning courses, with digital tools employed to support active learning opportunities for our students. Through a presentation of case examples from the University of York (United Kingdom), we will consider how blended activities can encourage participants to engage in creative learning and problem-solving. An engagement model for active learning, derived from the case examples, is presented as a stimulus for a broader discussion on effective design approaches to support student-led inquiry and problem-solving activities.
Liberal Education Unbound: The Life of Signature Student Work in the Emerging Digital Learning Environment
The Next Generation of Liberal Education Reforms
Featured Session
Thursday January 22, 2015 10:45am to 12:15pm
2015 Annual Meeting: Liberal Education, Global Flourishing, and the Equity Imperative
How does the emerging digital environment shape the life cycle of students’ signature work in the 21st century? Digital technology has changed the learning ecosystem, and the future of liberal education depends upon an integrative vision of learning that is not merely advanced by digital tools, but reshaped in the same ways that digital learning has already fundamentally changed our culture. In this forum, we will explore what a synthesis of liberal education and connected learning can look like through the lens of signature work and the possibilities that the digital opens up at each stage of this work.

Building Online Learning Communities Using Web 2.0 TechnologiesDr. Mariam Abdelmalak
In this presentation, I describe how I use Web 2.0 technologies to facilitate the development of a community of learners among graduate distant students and how students responded to the use of Web 2.0 tools and to what extent these tools assisted in developing a community of learners. Twitter, Skype, Google Documents, Blog, and Wiki were intentionally used in order to build online learning communities among students. An anonymous survey was used. The students indicated that using Google Documents, Twitter, Wiki, and blog gave them a sense of a learning community while using Skype did not give them a sense of a learning community. Google Documents and Wiki had the most impact on students’ sense of a learning community in the course.
Community Building 2.0: Using Piazza to Encourage Student Rapport Outside the...Rebekah Bennetch
Community can provide a powerful context for learning, whether it’s found in a physical or virtual environment (Bickford and Wright 2006). When it comes to building an online community in our classrooms, is Blackboard our only option? Piazza offers a better, more engaging choice. Piazza is a Web 2.0 social learning platform that helps students interact with their instructor and peers in a casual online format. Piazza’s creator, Pooja Sankar, started the service in 2011 out of the need for a “virtual place, a virtual piazza where people could come together and get unstuck.”The website functions as a type of online study hall, where students (and instructors) can post questions and share resources.
I’ve been using Piazza in my courses for the last year, and have found it to be a useful tool in strengthening the relationships not only between students and myself, but also in cultivating rapport in student-to-student interactions. My presentation discusses the Piazza platform, highlighting a few of the experiences I’ve had with it over the last 12 months.

Honest Reviews of Tim Han LMA Course Program.pptxtimhan337
Personal development courses are widely available today, with each one promising life-changing outcomes. Tim Han’s Life Mastery Achievers (LMA) Course has drawn a lot of interest. In addition to offering my frank assessment of Success Insider’s LMA Course, this piece examines the course’s effects via a variety of Tim Han LMA course reviews and Success Insider comments.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

In order for a shared inquiry to proceed productively, the participants must be able to regularly acknowledge their lack of understanding, offer partial understandings, and collectively digest the resulting discourse. Not-knowing is characterized by a group’s ability to defer meaning, tolerate ambiguity, hold divergent perspectives, and postpone closure. In order to develop, it requires a relatively non-judgmental classroom atmosphere, but not an uncritical one.” Jose Feito, St. Mary’s University (Moraga, California, U.S.A.)
