Flying not flapping: a strategic framework for e-learning and pedagogical innovation in higher education institutions

Flying not flapping: a strategic framework for e-learning and pedagogical innovation in higher education institutions | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

(2005). Flying not flapping: a strategic framework for e-learning and pedagogical innovation in higher education institutions. ALT-J: Vol. 13, No. 3, pp. 201-218. doi: 10.1080/09687760500376439


E-learning is in a rather extraordinary position. It was born as a ‘tool’ and now finds itself in the guise of a somewhat wobbly arrow of change. In practice, changing the way thousands of teachers teach, learners learn, innovation is promoted and sustainable change in traditional institutions is achieved across hundreds of different disciplines is a demanding endeavour that will not be achieved by learning technologies alone. It involves art, craft and science as well as technology. This paper attempts to show how it might be possible to capture and model complex strategic processes that will help move the potential of e-learning in universities to a new stage of development. It offers the example of a four-quadrant model created as a framework for an e-learning strategy.

The Best Way To Learn Effectively Using Microlearning

The Best Way To Learn Effectively Using Microlearning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Traditional classroom training programs are dwindling fast and eLearning has become the favorite. In fact, eLearning requires 40 to 60% less time than traditional learning methods. With the number of smartphone users projected to rise to approximately 2.7 billion by 2019, eLearning on the go is the most convenient way to gain new skills. When people use smartphones to answer questions or gain any skillset, they expect concise and simple information that gets to the point and does not take long to read and understand. Microlearning has become the answer for people to learn almost anything quickly. The explosion of YouTube is a testament to this.

Use of Open Educational Resources in E-learning for Higher Education - Open Educational Resources (OER)

Use of Open Educational Resources in E-learning for Higher Education - Open Educational Resources (OER) | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
E-learning encompasses not only technology but also pedagogical and instructional strategies to configure a complete learning environment based on the Internet. E-learning is nowadays widely used in higher education as a mean for supporting learning on academic programs. Concurrently, the Open Educational Resources (OER) are becoming a valuable alternative to improve access to high-quality educational content released under open licenses by outstanding universities worldwide. The conjunction of both concepts can configure a strategy to improve the quality of the curricula in the higher education institutions, particularly in development countries, in order to equalize the learning outcomes of international academic programs and to reduce the cost associated with educational content development. This work aims to achieve a preliminary understanding of the potential of the OER availability to be used in E-learning environments. As a case study, we have conducted an exploration of the feasibility of using OER to supplement E-learning environments for Higher Education in Computer Science at Ecuador. The search of the OER suitable to be used for this purpose has been performed on all categories of OER websites, including Open Courseware projects of prestigious universities. Moreover, this paper highlights the main barriers as well as the opportunities derived from adopting OER in E-learning environments.

MOOCs and copyright law | Jisc Inform / Issue 39, Spring 2014

Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are still pretty new but more and more universities, platform providers and publishers are beginning to create MOOCs to raise their profile and showcase high-quality materials. But there is a risk that reputations can take a serious hit if materials and data are being used incorrectly, or without permission. The time to make sure your institution is squeaky clean is NOW, says David Kernohan, Jisc programme manager, e-learning.
