The Ugly Truth Behind Online Teaching and How to Fix It

The Ugly Truth Behind Online Teaching and How to Fix It | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From coop.mycoolclass.com - January 28, 2021 4:43 PM

Believe it or not, this may be the easy part. The answer is to put the power and profit in the hands of the teachers themselves, and in turn, back into their communities. By building teacher cooperatives this can become reality.

EBooks in education: realising the vision | Hazel Woodward

EBooks in education: realising the vision | Hazel Woodward | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.ubiquitypress.com - May 12, 2015 4:06 PM

Ebooks are coming of age in education, as this exciting collection commissioned by Jisc demonstrates. 

Case studies, reflecting ebook success stories across the higher and further education sectors, include: 

 - An innovative app to encourage ebook take-up in a Welsh college. 
 - A partnership between a library and research centre to create open access monographs and midigraphs. 
 - Several examples of creative negotiations with ebook publishers.

Carina Bethea's curator insight, June 14, 2015 4:22 PM

Ebooks seem like a great advancement for education. Why spend hundreds of dollars and muscle power on textbooks if the material can be loaded on a portable device? Innovative educational apps and "creative negotiations with ebook publishers" are already underway and making it easier for schools, teachers and students to incorporate eBooks into lesson plans, especially when it comes to higher education.

Connecting with "actual" libraries sounds like a smart idea to halt the decline of libraries which is a major concern when discussing eBooks. 

This article introduces a set of case studies on eBooks in education, which will include experiments and reports from teachers, lecturers and students. The "publication will be available for open access on a CC-BY licence."

It will be interesting to see how the eBook will come off and how those results will impact its future in digital education.

I expect that eBooks will soon be the preferred method of text sharing in school settings. It simplifies education (and life for that matter). Therefore, it is a "win" in my books!

At online learning conference, preparing faculty for online education dominates agenda | Inside Higher Ed

At online learning conference, preparing faculty for online education dominates agenda | Inside Higher Ed | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.insidehighered.com - November 22, 2013 11:34 AM

 

ORLANDO -- "A Universe of Opportunities" -- the tagline for the Sloan Consortium's International Conference on Online Learning -- is also an apt description of the glut of different faculty development models presented here so far.

Over the course of three days, attendees at the Sloan-C conference face a series of dilemmas when deciding which of the almost 500 sessions -- most of which run concurrently -- to attend. In addition to sessions belonging to the broadly defined technology and emerging learning environments track, instructional designers and other conference-goers have flocked to the more than 100 sessions on how to prepare faculty members to teach online.

Why? “We’re all struggling with the same challenges,” said Lujean Baab, senior director for networked learning design and strategies at Virginia Tech.
