Blended learning

Different models

Instruction at home

Assignments, discussions, questions and answers at university

Students provide presentations

Facilitated with VLE

VLE for co-creation

Students choose meaningful theme (e.g. development game concept that fosters moving)

Working in groups, division of tasks

Searching information

Processing: video’s, text, test questions

Results

Increased motivation

Broad scope and in-depth learning

Collaborative skills

More responsibility for own learning

Online video and learning

Writing fosters restructuring thoughts and deep learning

Involving “quiet” students

Studenten more active than teachers

More possibilities for feedback of high quality (time to think about interventions)

Visibility contributions (promotes diligence)

Developments and impact

Learning analytics

Identifying patterns in educational data and using these patterns to enhance and improve learning, H. Drachsler (2013)

Rich information about learners

Enabling personalized learning

Promoting reflection by learners

Chances

How do we use data?Interpretation?Important for organization and student?Does a VLE enable learning analytics?

Open education

Bron: FreeFoto.com

Accessible educationAccessible educational resourcesKnowledge increases by sharing

Efficient use of resourcesOpen source software

MOOC

Massive (but how many is ‘massive’)

Open, free, accessible (how open?)

Online

Course, but no certificate (at least....)

2008: cMOOCs

2011: xMOOCs

In the mean timeLarge diversity (e.g. pedagogical approaches)

Combination different innovations (badges, mobile learning, learning analytics)

Should the ‘C’ of MOOC stand for ‘Course’?

Drop out as issue, quality, business model

Used for LLL, more awareness opportunities for LLL

Lot of questions to be answered

Are VLE’s able to facilitate MOOCs?

Vragen?
