"Instead of lectures, “this generation is completely comfortable watching a video online; for them, it’s not markedly different than having a person up at the front of the classroom. They are happy using technology. They know how to hit the pause button; they know how to speed it up a little bit, to watch it 20 percent faster and make the process more efficient.”

An OER Toolkit for Expanding Blended Learning « Uncategorized « Education Domain: Online Learning

An OER Toolkit for Expanding Blended Learning « Uncategorized « Education Domain: Online Learning | E-Learning and Online Teaching | Scoop.it
The OER project, created by the University of Central Florida (UCF) and the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU), with funding from the NGLC, is called the “Blended Learning Toolkit,” which seeks to provide higher education institutions and instructors with a guide for developing and managing blended and online learning programs.


Yet, while the Blended Learning Toolkit may have been developed by university experts for higher education, it also serves as a valuable resource for school districts and teachers interested in implementing blended and online learning programs in K-12 education.

Total Noob to Learning Online? P2PU’s Peer-to-Peer Courses Hold Your Hand | E-Learning and Online Teaching | Scoop.it
Those of us interested in exploring the myriad free courses available online will appreciate the work being done at P2PU. It’s perhaps a funny name when you first say it out loud, but P2PU's approach and original learning content are for real.


Their idea is that taking an online course should be more like learning on the job than taking a traditional class. Their approach encourages people to work together on projects—whether learning computing programming or something else—and to assess one another’s work with constructive feedback.

Some top colleges offer free online classes; what does that mean for UW? | E-Learning and Online Teaching | Scoop.it
While UW-Madison has no immediate plans to dive into the burgeoning MOOCs movement, the trend is certainly on leadership's mind as the university takes significant steps to rethink and redefine how it delivers education and remains relevant in the Internet era. The university is in the midst of what it's calling an "Educational Innovation" initiative pushed by interim Chancellor David Ward. The efforts are focused on improving learning, finding efficiencies and increasing revenues by expanding UW-Madison's reach to nontraditional and distance learning audiences.
