EAMILMicrolearning/e-learningQuo Vadis?

Norm Friesen

to speak about pedagogy is to speak about
everything at once.
Jean Paul (c1800)

Themes

Styles, habits, attention, practice, tools
Overload, organizing, tagging
Technology mis-appropriation

Microlearning

Microcontents as fine granularity learning
objects that are created in concrete environments
that have some inherent subjectivity, and that
are in many cases informal, not following a
strong educational intention.

5
Microlearning (Wikipedia)

deals with relatively small learning units and
short-term learning activities. Generally, the
term 'microlearning' refers to micro-perspectives
in the context of learning, education and
training. More frequently, the term is used in
the domain of E-learning and related fields in
the sense of a new paradigmatic perspective on
learning processes in mediated environments on
micro levels.

Cognitive Styles and Attitudes

George Siemens
Media Generations
Learning as occurring through the
strengthening/weakening of connections
Re-writing these pathways and connection, coping
with uncertainty
Shared symbolic forms, language

Cognitive Styles and Attitudes

Evolution and acquisition of cognitive habits and
capabilities
we suggest that the objects of thought are not
always inside the brain.
Information habits, tools used, when and why
Coulter, 2005 Mind is either a vernacular
notion with commonplace uses, or a philosophical
reification. it actually can impede our
understanding of how we speak and hear, how we
say and to things, in our everyday lives.

10
Habitus?

Habitus can sometimes be understood as those
aspects of culture that are anchored in the body
or daily practices of individuals, groups,
societies, and nations. It includes the totality
of learned habits, bodily skills, styles, tastes,

Habitus?

and other non-discursive knowledges that might be
said to "go without saying" for a specific group.
The scope of the term has been extended to
include a person's beliefs and dispositions.

12
Overload

Information overload filtering
Following voices, or tiny chunks
Hypertext navigation and new cognitive styles
Attention, behaviour and interfaces
How we manage info overload in everday life and
practices

Filtering power
Ecosystem of ideas healthy ones survive.
New literacies

14
Wisdom of Crowds

Cognition Market judgment, which he argues can
be much faster, more reliable, and less subject
to political forces
Coordination of behavior, such as not colliding
in moving traffic flows, crowding in popular
restaurants. experimental economics, He examines
how common understanding within a culture allows
remarkably accurate judgments about specific
reactions of other members of the culture.

15
Wisdom of Crowds

Cooperation How groups of people can form
networks of trust without a central system
controlling their behavior or directly enforcing
their compliance.

16
The Crowd

omnipresent but amorphous anonymity
We have all encountered they-selves in our
traditional classrooms. These are the students
who refuse to question their own presuppositions
about the world by appealing to dogma,
conventional opinion, common sense, or a
generalized consensus They think as people do,
as in people think that studying philosophy is a
waste of time, or people dont wear that style
any more. David Koukal

Dual Folksonomy Triad

Technological Innovation

Dodge-ball (Th. Vander Wal) Stay-at home
parents initially created for bar-scene
IRC (Arnauld Leene) Created for remote
commuication used in wireless classrooms for
comments additional layer of communication
IRC with Skype

19
Social Software

Mis-using the technology
One artifact, software system is realized as a
different technology in different contexts
Design through participation
Contra Technological Determinism
Medium is the Message

20
Continuity Principle

The new grows out of the old, repeats the old,
embraces, reimagines and extends the old. To
understand the Web, Im saying --to understand
our emerging digital culture-- we need a
continuity not a discontinuity principle
(Thorburn, 2004 24, emphasis added).
