Six factors to consider in planning online distance learning programs.... Excellent paper pointed to on Carving Code 12:06:38 PM    comments   trackback

A Weblog Learning Management System - Part 2 OK, so having stumbled around a bit regarding the 'whys' here's how it might work: Instructor creates their own weblog (a bit like their own office) From this office they then create a course weblog(s) for the subject(s) they teach This is automatically registered as the course weblog for that course by an academic management system (AMS) Students create their own weblog (a bit like their study room) From this students create a weblog for each course they are enrolled in. These are automatically linked ('blogrolled' and RSSed into a community aggregator) to the instructors course blog by the AMS. And you're ready to go... One possibility: The instructor posts a 'spark' on their weblog, as the AMS has subscribed the students aggregator to the instructors RSS feed, students are notified. The students visit the instructors weblog and participate in emoderated & free asynch & synch discussion through forums / chat environments linked to the 'spark' The students reflect on and explore issues through their course weblog. These are aggregated in the 'community aggregator' area of the instructors weblog. Other students & the instructor visit this to see what people are up to & browse resources & thoughts of the memnbers of the class. (Of course they can post them themselves, discuss on the weblog etc.) Pretty simple and pretty cool I think. Anyone out there interested in exploring this further? Making it? :o) 10:01:02 AM    comments   trackback

Blackboard and Student Publishing XPLANA: Blackboard and Student Publishing. Quote: "Blackboard lets faculty members share documents with students, but it does nothing to promote web publishing by students." Comment:This is a question I've seen from WebCT refugees: Where is the student publishing element?  There is no easy answer. [Serious Instructional Technology] Absolutely! Although I don't see how WebCT excels here either... I'd be interested to know though! 9:35:58 AM    comments   trackback
