Presentation given during the teacher conference of InnoEnergy in Lisbon, Portugal. The presentation offers some blended learning options: video (adding interaction, simulation, 360 video), flipped lecturing, mobile learning options.

1. Stimulating

learning

2. Top Renewable/Sustainable Energy company
• We have the Power (pun intended)
• We have the partnerships
• We have the experts
But we must increase our training and online & blended know-how

3. Blended learning = mastery based model
Blended learning is an education program (formal or informal) that
combines online digital media with traditional classroom methods. It
requires the physical presence of both teacher and student, with some
element of student control over time, place, path, or pace. [Wikipedia]

4. How do you
blend your
classes?

5. Some blended learning options
Flipped
lecture
approach
Peer
reviews
for group
learning
Using

(simple to
advanced)
Mobile

6. Flipped lecture
Viewing previously provided online/digital sources, followed by classroom
interactions, and possible hands-on activity.
More information: flipped classroom slides here.

7. MOOC adds to class / curriculum
MOOC video or multimedia sources in class
Flipped lecture example used for blended learning (view here)
• Students look at multimedia (or look it up & share it)
• Students discuss MOOC content

8. Overview: four big parts
• Learning goal and meaning of the
FC needs to be shared with
students for ensured bigger
understanding.
• Online sources are shared. To be
viewed/understood (cfr
homework/reflection – computer
available?)
• In-class: groupwork, focus on
content, understanding,
difficulties, project.
• Evaluation of the process by all.
1. Learning
goal FC
2. Pre-class:
sources
(homework)
3. Class:
groupwork &
understanding
4. Post-class:
evaluation

9. Rubric for group work/peer review (e.g.
rubric review peer online courses)
Benefit of a using rubric
• Reflecting triggers prior to submitting work.
• Grading experience based on objective guidelines.
• In-depth understanding of critical evaluation.

10. Using video
• Recording lecture or talking
head (scripting & timing !):
webcam, Jing, Camtasia, PPT,
Articulate, hangouts …
• Recording with a green screen
(e.g. Martin Vendel, additional
visual context)
• More on video narration and
scripting here
(Google drive and
CommUnity)

11. Synchronous collaboration
• Use remote, interactive
video (camera activated
remotely, Jeevan)
• Hangouts, online
synchronous seminars:
students give
presentations, organise
group discussions, meet-
the-expert sessions
• Chat for questions, ideas
and reflections

12. Simulation through
augmented video
• Adding Augmented Reality:
simulations, adding
authenticity (examples)

13. 360 camera video

14. Video interactions
• Integrate quizzes in video? (e.g. Google sites, forms or
Playposit )
• Discussions through chat (synchronous or asynchronous)
or add questions inside video through annotation

15. Integrating mobile learning
• Field visits: contextualised content production (by students)
• Institutional use: meaningful communication for course administration
purposes (mobile tool communicating schedules, sudden changes,
deadlines for assignments, …)

16. • Mobile based interaction (synchronous moments) for in-class
participation (with ad-hoc and remote students) e.g. mentimeter,
poll everywhere.

17. Ubiquitous access - BYOD
Anytime/anywhere and just-in-time learning: accessing content

18. IPR & copyright tools
• Image source retrieval: reverse image search: https://www.tineye.com/ or https://images.google.com/ (use
camera icon)
• Search per type of creative commons: https://search.creativecommons.org/
• Using Creative Commons material
• Using Open Educational Resources or OER commons

20. Common themes across blended
learning options?
• Activating the students : it is not the tech, it is the pedagogy
• Increase communication and social learning (PLN)
• Increasing authentic learning
• Add additional meaning to the course content

21. Community tool for communication

help you to
engage more
in blended
learning?
