his site is dedicated to the thought that something as simple as fun is the easiest way to change people’s behaviour for the better. Be it for yourself, for the environment, or for something entirely different, the only thing that matters is that it’s change for the better.

If “par­en­the­ti­cal” cul­ture is domi­na­ted by the ori­gi­nal, indi­vi­dual, auto­no­mous, sta­ble and cano­ni­cal com­po­si­tion, then pre-parenthetical cul­ture is rather domi­na­ted by the oppo­si­tes of these qua­li­ties: the re-creative, collec­tive, con-textual, unsta­ble, tra­di­tio­nal per­for­mance, which … may be ano­ther way of for­mu­la­ting the “sam­pling, remi­xing, boro­wing, resha­ping, appro­pria­ting and recon­text­ua­li­zing” cha­rac­te­ristic of “post-parenthetic”, digi­tal inter­net cul­ture.

believe all teachers and students should have digital portfolios. Recently, I've discovered a freemium site called WIX.com that allows one to produce a creative, professional-looking web portfolio. It's Flash-based and completely customizable. VIEW MINE HERE: www.amyburvall.com

I presented at Hawaii Association for Independent Schools "Schools of the Future" conference in Sept. 2011. The topic was e-portfolios, though I discuss other things like positive digital footprints and personal branding.

I learn in the process.
In order to build useful Web sites, and develop effective social media and marketing strategies, I have to keep up with changes in the field and continue to learn new things each day. I keep up with trends and information by reading blogs, listening to podcasts and conversing with peers on Twitter, LinkedIn and other social media channels. While doing this I also discover links that may be of interest to my own followers.

Now that I think about it, one of the Web sites on my own top 10 list encourages exactly this role of teacher as curator

Digital Curation, Curated Learning & Collective Curation?

I have started hearing and reading about the terms “Digital Curation”, “Curated Learning” and “Collective Curation” as well. Naturally it intrigued me. What does that mean? How can I bring it into the classroom? How can “curated learning” be connected to the idea of teachers and students creating their own textbooks?

  • The idea behind curators and content curation is that there is such a flood of new content pouring through the Internet pipes these days that being aware of all of it and sorting it out in meaningful ways is simply not possible. Curators are people or organizations that do the hard work of sifting through the content within a particular topic area or “meme” and pulling out the things that seem to make most sense. This effort involves significantly more than finding and regurgitating links, though.

Facilitating an online environment has its own set of characteristics and challenges.
When designing online learning, it's more important to drive it from the learning challenge rather than the technology perspective. You also need to design for student activity rather than delivery of content. Unlike a classroom setting, all the materials need to be prepared and structured in advance.

The third PSA in a series created by Pearson Foundation and the Consortium for School Networking, focusing on the challenges and opportunities of integrating technology into teaching practice around the world. Students discuss the ways in which they use technology at school, at home, or in their everyday lives.

After eight years in Duke's central administration, I was excited to take the methods we had gleaned from the iPod experiment back into the classroom. I decided to offer a new course called "This Is Your Brain on the Internet," a title that pays homage to Daniel J. Levitin's inspiring book This Is Your Brain on Music (Dutton, 2006)

To help you find your way around the Gallery, we've organised the strategies under four key tasks involved in designing and delivering courses:

organising the content - presenting or exploring information to engage learners
preparing learning activities - providing a variety of challenges and interactions for learners
providing support - building communication to motivate and enrich learning
arranging assessment - assessing progress and providing evidence of competence.
As you'll see, e-learning resources can be used to enrich learning in all these ways.

This paper defines and examines three generations of distance education pedagogy. Unlike earlier classifications of distance education based on the technology used, this analysis focuses on the pedagogy that defines the learning experiences encapsulated in the learning design. The three generations of cognitive-behaviourist, social constructivist, and connectivist pedagogy are examined, using the familiar community of inquiry model (Garrison, Anderson, & Archer, 2000) with its focus on social, cognitive, and teaching presences.

  • Social Presence in Cognitive-Behaviourist Models

     

    What most defined the cognitive-behavioural generation of distance education was an almost total absence of social presence.

  • It is also interesting to note the backlash against distance education that arose amongst traditional campus-based academics, partially in reaction to this individualized affordance. This suspicion continues today (Garrison, 2009), though 30 years of research has yet to show differences in learning outcomes between learning designs with high or low levels of social presence, that is if one confines the definition of learning to the CB notions of acquisition of pre-specified facts and concepts.

Fiona Young, from BVN and I did a presentation last week, at the University Planning and Design conference. Interestingly, the teaching and learning papers were in this last session. Personally, it may have been better up front to frame the activities that universities are engaged with, so it doesn’t become too decontextualised.

Do you write or prepare content for online courses?
Being aware of the readability of text destined for online students is an important consideration when writing and sourcing readings for online courses.
