The Trouble With Online Education

The Trouble With Online Education | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it
From www.nytimes.com - August 10, 2012 11:32 AM

Internet courses are monologues. True learning is a dialogue.

 

PM - An opinion piece from the NYT. Use of sexist language ("with his sensitivity..." - "he knows he’s doing something right. From there he folds what he has learned into his teaching, adjusting his course...") and a simple view of what 'is' online education shows how far parts of America are behind the 'real world' and how much further we have to go to get people to see that online education can be so much more. The writer has obviously not had a positive experience with online learning, perhaps they should try some online courses from other institutions as the interaction they describe is certainly possible in an online environment.

primer-on-learning-outcomes.pdf - The sinister 16!

From www.uwindsor.ca - May 28, 12:04 AM
Learning outcomes are statements that indicate what students will know, value or be able to do by the end of the course. They are the assessable ends of education, written from the students’ perspective, focused on what students can expect to achieve if they have learned successfully. In order to be assessable, they must specify things that can be observed, that are public, and not activities or states that are internal to students’ minds.

Doit on appliquer une fois de plus le "balancier décisionnel"... le fameux "tout l'un, tout l'autre"... !? Oui, généraliser à 2 ans l'usage des tablettes est une extrémité difficile à soutenir... Oui, l'abstraction des écrans et des applications jusqu'à 14 ou 15 ans est largement discutable... La mesure, le compromis sont parfois plus efficace que des solutions tranchées et partisanes, qui sont souvent limitées en perspective comme en clairvoyance.
