Now that the course is well under way (and the risk of having to switch groups is fairly low) I think it's time for me to honor my fellow group members and facilitators. What do you think?
OK then, it’s (sadly) time for me to blog post for the final time in this course and to summarize my experiences and what I have learned through these weeks that began already back in February. The ONL team has kindly put together questions for me to use when I reflect back on the course, and that I am happy to employ. What are the most important things that you have learnt through your engagement in the ONL course? Why? There are several matters that I have learned actually. Most importantly I have improved my collaborative skills and a bit of the many pedagogical aspects linked to this method of learning. I already have mastered a lot of the technical tools used in the course. In fact my competence in that area surpasses a lot of the material provided to us by the ONL team. David White had some nice professional looking videos though. However, Al Creelman told us early that this was not a course in which we would be taught on which button to press so I didn’t expect to lear...
OK, so Open Learning – Sharing and Openness then. Let’s start with what openness means for my own teaching. Up until a year ago, I pretty much ripped off and used just about any material I wanted and could get my hands on in my courses. It could be a YouTube video, a song on Spotify or a figure or model from an internet page. It didn’t really matter because my courses and its content were not public so no laws of copyright were broken, the way I saw it. Then I began my YouTube channel and started to put my lectures on YT as well as in my courses. It was an unintentional and a bit immature way of open publishing you might say. I knew that my YT videos could not contain material that was copyrighted so my approach when it came to producing video lectures started to change. This was because I did not want to make two lectures on more or less the same subject. So therefore, in the process my closed university courses lectures have become cleaner when it comes to the subject of copyri...
Hi guys, So my group, PBL09, has been busy at work on a video for Topic 2. It has been great fun working with the people in my group. When I do research I do work with colleagues for most of the time but when I teach, because of my field, I'm a bit of a solitaire. So it has been inspirational to for once work together with other, wonderfully nice and enthusiastic people in a group like this. When it comes to the topic at hand, Open learning, sharing and openness, especially sharing is something I can relate to a great deal and something I would like to dive into and use in my teaching to a greater extent. So looking ahead, next is Reflection week which I think I can use to catch up on my learning. Take care, Jesper
