EctoLearning is a social, collaborative, online learning environment that directly addresses the needs of the modern learning environment by making the new communication skills and competencies for content creation and sharing central to the classroom experience.
Die Fachtagung "Personal Learning Environments in der Schule" beschäftigt sich mit allen Arten von medialen Werkzeuge, mit denen Lernende ihren Lernprozess verstärkt selbst gestalten können. Es gibt eine Video-Einführung in das Tagungsthema von Beat Döbeli.
Doug Clow’s notes from Researcher 2.0 event - sponsored by the Technology Enhanced Learning research cluster at the Open University, and the OLnet project.
Imagine if every twelve weeks Facebook: * shut down all the groups you belonged to, * deleted all your forum posts, * removed all the photos, videos, and other files you had shared, and * forgot who your friends were.
Journal of the Research Center for Educational Technology 4 (2008) This paper briefly summarizes the implementation of a university-wide electronic portfolio requirement. We begin with a systemic view of the ePortfolio Program and narrow our focus to a view of ePortfolio integration into two different classes. The rationale behind the Clemson University ePortfolio Program is to build a mechanism through which core competencies are demonstrated and evaluated. The target classes are a general education English class focusing on 20th and 21st century literature and a professional development seminar in computer science. Both classes allow students to select their topics and present their work to the class using a variety of media types, and both include a form of peer evaluation. These classes confirm that when students’ choice is built into the assignments we are pleasantly surprised by the outcomes.
