Web 2.0 technologies allow for new approaches to learning and teaching such as creating and sharing work, collecting and remixing content from different sources, and collaborating with others globally. Learners can take advantage of opportunities for discovery through searching, building on previous work, and serendipitous findings, potentially forming learning networks with peers before even joining a course. Institutions may need to facilitate these learner-driven networks rather than solely providing traditional courses.
This document summarizes a study on deploying social software like blogs in distance learning environments. It found that while blogs provided benefits like facilitating reflective practice and community, students struggled with finding purpose for blogging and tensions between private and public sharing. Only 20-30% of students blogged regularly, with 50% not blogging at all, similar to other studies. Students had pragmatic concerns about time and assessment that influenced tool use. Understanding blogs as a genre and negotiating their purpose and context of use is important for adoption in educational settings.
The document discusses the use of Web 2.0 technologies in higher education, including sharing content, using social software to interact and form groups, and tools like wikis, blogs, RSS feeds, social bookmarking, video and photo sharing, podcasting, mashups, and social networks to help people communicate, learn, and collaborate. It also addresses issues for educational institutions in implementing these technologies and provides examples from different universities' strategies.
This document discusses various online tools that can be used to engage students, including blogs, wikis, podcasts, and social bookmarking tools. It provides descriptions of each tool and suggests ways they can be implemented in the classroom, such as having students create blogs to reflect on class assignments, using wikis for collaborative projects, recording podcasts to share knowledge with others, and using social bookmarking sites to collect and annotate online resources. The document emphasizes that these tools allow students to publicly share their work, provide feedback to peers, and participate in learning networks beyond the classroom.
Educational tools of Web 2.0 like Flickr, Delicious, and Bubbleshare can expand curriculum by supporting a new collaborative learning environment. Web 2.0 represents a shift from static to social web where users can create and share knowledge. Common Web 2.0 tools for classrooms include social bookmarking sites to share research bookmarks, photo sharing sites to post presentations, and wikis or blogs for collaborative document writing and discussion.

This document discusses using Web 2.0 tools like blogs, wikis, podcasts, and RSS to extend classroom conversations beyond traditional boundaries. It notes that teachers need opportunities to actively participate in using these technologies, rather than just learning about them, to become "digital immigrants." Various Web 2.0 tools are listed that can be used for teacher professional development, student literacy, and collaboration across subjects.
This document discusses the differences between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0 environments and their implications for learning and teaching. Web 2.0 is defined as a generation of internet services based on interactivity and user-generated content that flows in multiple directions and is widely shared. It facilitates three facets of learning 2.0: open design, open source, and social communications. This represents a paradigm shift from traditional learning to a model of constructing meaning through collaboration using Web 2.0 tools in a community of inquirers.

Wikis can be used in education to facilitate collaborative learning between students. Students are assessed both on their individual work and how well they link their topics to other students' work, rewarding knowledge sharing over hoarding. Key outcomes include professionals who understand relationship building, networking, and leveraging others' expertise. Wikis also allow students to actively learn together across disciplines and collectively build knowledge from multiple sources. Administration of courses using wikis is simpler, with assessment and feedback embedded in the online platform.

Collaborative learning for both content and behavioural aspects of education. Interactive web2.0 learning with high quality outcomes
This document discusses wikis and their educational uses. It begins by defining wikis as websites that allow collaborative editing without technical skills. Wikis allow asynchronous communication, group collaboration, and presentation of information in various formats. They have revision history and meet technology standards. Challenges include privacy, reluctance to post, and information accuracy. Wikis can be used as products that are referenced or as processes where users collaborate dynamically. Examples of educational wiki uses are provided, along with tips for engaging students in wiki collaboration and important wiki features.
This document discusses wikis and their use in education. It defines a wiki as a collaborative web space that can be viewed and edited by anyone online. It provides examples of how wikis can be used for literature circles, student assessments, and online textbooks. It also outlines features of wikis like editing, adding files, and tracking history. The document discusses ensuring student learning through developing acceptable use policies, rubrics, and feedback, as well as using cooperative learning pedagogy.
1 WIKIS IN HIGHER EDUCATION: THE CONSTRUCTIVIST LEARNING PARADIGMThiyagu K
Wikis are a very versatile and easy-to-use tool that is finding increasing applications in teaching and learning. Wikis are largely used in education for both teaching and learning. Wikis can be used in the classroom to support many learning approaches. Learning approaches that could most be supported by wikis are collaborative learning and the constructivist learning paradigms. A wiki is a web page that can be viewed and modified by anybody with a web browser and access to the internet. This means that any visitor to the wiki can change its content if they desire. While the potential for mischief exists, wikis can be surprisingly robust, open-ended, collaborative group sites. This paper deals about the characteristics of wiki, wiki as a learning tool and uses of wiki in education. This paper also explains the concept of STOLEN principles for using wiki in higher education.
The document discusses wikis as collaborative websites where anyone with permission can edit pages. It notes that wikis are designed to build online knowledge bases through group contributions over time, emphasizing ongoing knowledge accumulation. Wikis work best for collecting information about topics, rather than projects needing individual authorship attribution or final polished products. Some challenges with wikis include assessing individual student contributions, disciplinary issues, and technical support needs.
Blogs, wikis, and podcasts can be used in higher education to facilitate collaboration, knowledge sharing, and reflective activities. They allow for flexible participation and communication. However, challenges include ensuring quality contributions, assessing individual work, addressing intellectual property issues, maintaining control of content, and developing necessary technical skills.
The document discusses how Holicong implemented wikis as part of its professional learning community. It provides details on how Holicong has used wikis for collaborating on resources and projects, managing documents, and archiving materials. It also discusses how Holicong trained staff on using wikis and enhanced collaboration between departments and grade levels through the wiki over time.
The document discusses strategies for building successful virtual communities inside companies based on lessons from Web 2.0. It covers defining communities and their key elements: a domain of shared focus, a group of members, and a body of shared knowledge and practices. Wikis are one tool but may lead to too many isolated efforts without search; a single centralized wiki works better. Metrics are needed to demonstrate community value to users and management.
This is the powerpoint presentation given at a Workshop called "Using Social Software for Language Learning" at Eurocall 2007 in Coleraine, Northern Ireland. The presentation will soon be integrated with screenshots from the actual presentation.
The document discusses the impact of open content and web 2.0 tools on e-learning and learner participation. It explores examples of open information communities like Wikipedia that allow collaborative knowledge creation. It also examines how tools like videos, social networking, and e-books can empower learners and foster participation through activities like creating content and interacting with others online in knowledge-sharing networks on a global scale.
This document discusses the benefits and considerations of implementing a wiki for project management and collaboration. It provides an overview of what wikis are and how they can be used to improve communication, documentation, and knowledge sharing. It also shares lessons learned from implementing a wiki at Johns Hopkins University, including the need for adoption drivers, ease of use, and allowing organic growth of content. Wikis were found to make project staff more informed and enable faster, more efficient work through centralized information.
Wikis are websites that allow collaborative editing of their content. They enable multiple users to directly add, modify, or delete content via a web browser. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and power online communities. Some key benefits of wikis include their ability to facilitate instant collaboration, provide an accessible cumulative record of work, and give everyone an opportunity to contribute. However, wikis also have some potential downsides like requiring monitoring to prevent vandalism and lack of backup functions. Overall, wikis can be a useful tool for activities like compiling notes, homework assignments, reading groups, and collaborative writing when structured and monitored appropriately.
The document discusses the use of wikis for language learning. It defines wikis and explains how they allow for collaboration between students and teachers. Wikis provide a flexible, authentic environment where students can add or edit content with peer feedback. They support nonlinear writing and inclusion of multimedia. Wikis foster social writing and require students to develop skills like negotiation, cooperation, collaboration and respect when working together.
The document defines blogs and wikis, explores their educational uses, and provides examples of blog and wiki applications. Blogs allow individuals to post entries like a diary and include comments, media, and links. Wikis enable collaborative online authorship, allowing anyone to easily add and edit web pages. Both have benefits for student writing, collaboration, and meeting students in online spaces they frequent. Examples show blogs used for classroom communication and wikis for collaborative storytelling and supplemental lessons.

Blogs allow individuals to post entries like a diary and include comments, media, and links. Wikis enable collaborative online authorship, allowing anyone to easily add and edit web pages. Both tools can be used for student writing, collaboration, and communicating with parents/community. Examples include storytelling wikis, subject-specific student pages, and teacher blogs.
This document discusses the implications of Web 2.0 technologies for learning and teaching. It defines Web 2.0 as technologies that facilitate sharing and social creation of knowledge through user interaction and participation. Some key Web 2.0 technologies discussed are wikis, blogs, and social networking sites. Wikis allow collaborative creation and editing of content while blogs are authored by an individual but can still foster discussion. The document explores how these tools can empower student-centered and collaborative learning when used for activities like joint research projects, reflective writing, and negotiating course content.
Similar to Wikis and collaboration: approaches to deploying wikis in educational settings (20)
In this keynote presentation I explore the value of WIL in providing key skills for future workforce needs. Against a backdrop of significant changes in the workplace and challenges to resources and recognition within institutions, I ask whether institutions can make WIL experiences accessible, meaningful and of high quality for all our students. Newcastle University's Career-ready Placements project will provide a critical case study to better understand and address key challenges in this area.
An assessment workshop on the six critical areas that need to be addressed in developing online assessment at scale.

ASCILITE 2022 presentation on Hybrid Learning Space design outlining an approach based on a '5-piece' model that incorporates:
1. clear pedagogy;
2. design patterns;
3. tools to think with;
4. exploratory design method/approach;
5. agile team configuration.
Background/context. While the COVID-19 pandemic has caused numerous economic, health and wellbeing issues, it has also caused significant disruption across the education sector. Universities were prompted, or forced, to transition from face-to-face teaching to fully online teaching practices in a short period of time; with many being unprepared to do so (Jung et al., 2021; Metcalfe, 2021). This presentation explores the experience of the University of New England (UNE) in transitioning its learning, teaching and assessment to fully online. In contrast to other institutions either having to shut down their learning and teaching activities or resorting to restricted forms of operations (Naidu, 2021), the experience of educators at UNE wasn’t all bad. Against this backdrop, the presentation reflects how learning, teaching and assessment practices at UNE were modified in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Adopting an optimistic stance, the presentation describes the challenges, opportunities, and the positive lessons learned, celebrating multiple successes.
The initiative/practice. From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, UNE has continued its learning, teaching and assessment practices, although numerous adjustments have been necessary. Courses that were previously offered via mixed modes (online and on-campus) were transitioned to being fully online. On-campus activities such as practicals, laboratory demonstrations, and intensive schools were revised and re-imagined for fully online delivery.
Methods of evaluative data collection and analysis. Semi-structured, conversational-style interviews were conducted with 18 academic staff at UNE about their experiences of transitioning to fully online delivery. These interviews were recorded, transcribed, coded and subjected to thematic analysis to capture key ideas and emergent themes.
Evidence of outcomes and effectiveness. Thematic analysis of interview data identified that despite the challenges, a range of positive experiences, practices and attitudes emerged from the transition to fully online delivery.
Presentation at CDE (now CODE) Webinar on 3rd March 2022. Title: 'From confidence to creativity: Emerging design opportunities for teaching and learning practice within the new hyflex educational landscape.'
The keynote presentation discusses a framework for guiding digital transformation at institutions. It explores case studies in learning, teaching, and capability development. The first case study examines how professional development for faculty positively impacts classroom pedagogy and student learning. The second case study looks at "education focused" academics and their purpose of delivering educational excellence while raising the status of teaching. It also notes risks like these roles becoming a casual "teaching-only" position. The third case study explores moving exams online (OLX) and the opportunities it provides for flexible exam sittings and accessibility, while also addressing challenges of academic integrity and technical issues.
Design patterns can help support others in making successful design decisions for online teaching by drawing inspiration from previous successful designs and making that knowledge reusable. The document discusses how design patterns make tacit design knowledge visible, shareable, and reusable. It provides an example environmental familiarization activity pattern and discusses how design pattern workshops that incorporate narrative cases, design challenges, and prototypes can help facilitate the capture and reuse of expert design knowledge at scale. In summary, design patterns can transfer representations of practice that are appropriate for the user, present essential elements, encourage creative use, and add the voice of expert designers.
The document outlines a three tier model for promoting institutional adoption of learning analytics at universities.
Tier 1 involves small scale pilot projects using various learning analytics tools to provide insights. Tier 2 establishes a community of interest to share practices. Tier 3 develops learning analytics principles, frameworks and governance models for institutional implementation.
The model was applied at Victoria University of Wellington, resulting in learning analytics principles and framework documents, and progress towards an institutional governance model to bring analytics to scale safely while respecting data ethics. Various pilot projects provided lessons about the need for staff capability development and coordination across the university.
An institutional perspective on analytics that focusses on a particular tool developed using an agile methodology to visualise learner behaviours in MOOCs via Sankey diagrams.
This document outlines Professor Steven Warburton's approach to designing digital futures for organizations facing accelerating technological change. It discusses the need to shift organizational culture through developing a digital mindset, processes, and capabilities. A design studio approach is proposed to scaffold design activities, using methods like narrative case studies, design patterns, challenges/scenarios, and prototypes. Participants investigate problems, prototype solutions, and provide feedback through critiques. The goal is to empower teams to design successful innovations through a user-centered process informed by past successes.
This document summarizes a workshop on designing MOOCs using design patterns, personas, and other tools. The workshop uses a participatory design studio approach where participants: 1) explore a design challenge and context through personas, intentions, and force maps; 2) use design patterns as prompts to create interventions; 3) storyboard their designs; and 4) present their work for feedback. The goal is to facilitate co-design of MOOCs through user-centered and collaborative methods that make tacit design knowledge visible and reusable.
This document summarizes a study examining how MOOCs can be used to enhance motivation, confidence, and self-regulated learning skills for students from non-traditional backgrounds entering higher education. Survey results found that students have some self-regulatory skills like goal-setting but desire more structure and support. Focus groups found students were positive about using a MOOC before university but wanted interactive course elements like livestreams and group projects. The study aims to observe students taking a MOOC to better understand how to support self-regulated learning and address tensions between student desires for flexibility versus more regulation and guidance.
The document proposes a two box model for conceptualizing technology enhanced learning (TEL). The model separates considerations into student-centric and staff-centric perspectives to provide a simple framework for examining the role of technology and a basis for facilitating action and change. Examples are given of how digital pen technology and lecture capture systems could be applied from both student and staff points of view.

We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - the ones we don't know we don't know.”
