Lightboard Design and Deployment: Creating Pedagocally Embedded Learning Reso...Michael Paskevicius
In 2015, the right combination of factors came together for us to build a Lightboard at Vancouver Island University based on the open hardware specification originally designed at Northwestern University.
The Lightboard provides a familiar whiteboard like environment for faculty to use while creating educational videos. Aside from the novelty, what makes the Lightboard a useful tool and what does it really take to build one?
We’ll share our Centre's history with supporting educational video and explain why and how we built our Lightboard. We'll show you pictures, examples we created with the lightboard and some pedagogically appropriate integrations into teaching and learning experiences.
We’d also like to hear from you. How have you supported educational video on your campus and what other supports for creating video have you used?

Developing an Online Course Based on E-Learning 2.0 ConceptsSteve Yuen
This document discusses the development of an online course based on e-learning 2.0 concepts. It describes how early e-learning models were limited and driven by institutions rather than learners. E-learning 2.0 takes a more flexible, socially-based approach using tools like wikis, blogs, podcasts and forums to encourage user-generated content, knowledge sharing and collective learning. The proposed online course design leverages many free web 2.0 tools to create a hybrid, collaborative learning environment that promotes interaction, community and reflective practices beyond traditional online models.

This presentation was delivered at City of Glasgow College during their CPD week in June 2014. The presentation gives an overview of blogs, media sharing tools, digital curation tools, and social networking tools, giving exemplars of how these tools have been used in an educational context.
This document discusses the use of social media in medical education. It begins by defining social media and explaining why students and educators should utilize these tools. Students today are "digital natives" who have grown up with technology and prefer collaborative, participatory learning over passive consumption. The document then provides examples of various social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and YouTube and how they can be used for educational purposes. It emphasizes experimenting with different tools, developing an online learning network, and focusing on pedagogy rather than any single technology. Best practices for social media use in education are also outlined.
