Exponential Growth of the Web

A Vision of E-learning for Americas Workforce,
Report of the Commission on Technology and Adult
Learning, (2001, June)

• A remarkable 84 percent of two-and four-year
  colleges in the United States expect to offer
  distance learning courses in 2002 (only 58 did
  in 1998) (US Dept of Education report, 2000)
• Web-based training is expected to increase 900
  percent between 1999 and 2003. (ASTD, State of
  the Industry Report 2001).

Best of Online Pedagogical Strategies
11
Online Strategies(Karen Lazenby, University of
Pretoria, Nov., 2001)

• Limit lecturing onlinepromote self-directed
  learning
• Set clear rules for posting and interaction
• Explain tasks and overlooked info.
• Let learners synthesize key points.
• Publish best work of students (with permission)
• Involve participation from outside experts

12
Changing Role of the TeacherThe Online Teacher,
TAFE, Guy Kemshal-Bell (April, 2001)

• From oracle to guide and resource provider
• From providers of answers to expert questioners
• From solitary teacher to member of team
• From total control of teaching environment to
  sharing as a fellow student
• From provider of content to designer of learning
  experiences.

13
Knowledge Sharing ConstructionE-Moderating
The Key to Teaching and Learning Online, (Gilly
Salmon, (1999) Kogan Page)

• Be an equal participant in the conference.
• Provide sparks or interesting comments.
• Avoid directives and right answers.
• Acknowledge all contributions.
• Weave, summarize, and model discussion.
• Support others for e-moderator role.
• Reward knowledge construction accomplishments.
• Be tolerant of twists in the discussion.

14
Pedagogical Recommendations(Berge, 1995, The
role of the online instructor/facilitator)

• Dont expect too much/thread
• Draw attention to conflicting views
• Do not lecture (Long, coherent sequence of
  comments yields silence)
• Request responses within set time
• Maintain non-authoritarian style
• Promote private conversations

15
Dennens Research on Nine Online Courses
(sociology, history, communications, writing,
library science, technology, counseling)
Poor Instructors Good Instructors

• Provided regular qual/quant feedback
• Participated as peer
• Allowed perspective sharing
• Tied discussion to grades, other assessments.
• Used incremental deadlines

• Little or no feedback given
• Always authoritative
• Kept narrow focus of what was relevant
• Created tangential discussions
• Only used ultimate deadlines

16
Web-Based Resources(Oliver McLoughlin, 1999)

• URL Postings in Dynamic Database (for inquiry)
• Electronic Discussions (to see ideas unfold)
• Debates (submit arguments in a public space)
• Personal Reflections (encourage to rebut/refute)
• Concept Maps (see relationships)
• Nominal Group Process (to gain consensus)
• Survey (can aggregate student responses)

17
Pedagogical Techniques of CMC(Paulsen, 1995, The
Online Report on Pedagogical Techniques for
Computer-Mediated Communication)

1. Collective databases
2. Informal socializing (online cafes)
3. Seminars (read before going online)
4. Public tutorials
5. Peer counseling
6. Simulations, games, and role plays
7. Forum
8. Email interviews
9. Symposia or speakers on a theme
10. The notice board (class announcements)

18
Synchronous Considerations Jennifer Hoffman,
ASTD, Learning Circuits, (2001, March)

• Log on early students come 15 minutes early.
• Do tech checks of microphones (sound check).
• Check to see if students brought needed items
• Welcome to the session/class explain goals ask
  for feedback on goals.
• Vary instructional strategies max interactivity
• Make it visualcolor, sound, animation
• A Do Not Disturb sign be near a restroom
  pitcher of water

19
Pedagogical Tips (Bonk 1998)

• Test system with immediate task
• Build peer interactivity
• Embed choices (avatars, tasks, etc.)
• Simplify (everything!!!)
• Embed peer and portfolio fdbk tools
• Offer early feedback
• Link to prior work (legacies)

20
What do we need???

• FRAMEWORKS!

21
1. Reflect on Extent of IntegrationThe Web
Integration Continuum

• Level 1 Course Marketing/Syllabi via the Web
• Level 2 Web Resource for Student Exploration
• Level 3 Publish Student-Gen Web Resources
• Level 4 Course Resources on the Web
• Level 5 Repurpose Web Resources for Others
• Level 6 Web Component is Substantive Graded
• Level 7 Graded Activities Extend Beyond Class
• Level 8 Entire Web Course for Resident Students
• Level 9 Entire Web Course for Offsite Students
• Level 10 Course within Programmatic Initiative

22
2. Reflect on InteractionsMatrix of Web
Interactions(Cummings, Bonk, Jacobs, in press)

• Instructor to Student syllabus, notes, feedback
• to Instructor Course resources, syllabi,
  notes
• to Practitioner Tutorials, articles,
  listservs
• Student to Student Intros, sample work, debates
• to Instructor Voting, tests, papers,
  evals.
• to Practitioner Web links, resumes
• Practitioner to Student Internships, jobs,
  fieldtrips
• to Instructor Opinion surveys, fdbk,
  listservs
• to Practitioner Forums, listservs

23
3. Four Key Hats of Instructors

• Technicaldo students have basics? Does their
  equipment work? Passwords work?
• ManagerialDo students understand the assignments
  and course structure?
• PedagogicalHow are students interacting,
  summarizing, debating, thinking?
• SocialWhat is the general tone? Is there a
  human side to this course? Joking allowed?
• Other firefighter, convener, weaver, tutor,
  conductor, host, mediator, filter, editor,
  facilitator, negotiator, e-police, concierge,
  marketer, assistant, etc.

2. Questioning "What is the name of this
concept...?," "Another reason for this might
be...?," "An example of this is...," "In contrast
to this might be...,""What else might be
important here...?," "Who can tell me....?," "How
might the teacher..?." "What is the real problem
here...?," "How is this related to...?,, "Can
you justify this?"
26
5. Feedback/Praise "Wow, I'm impressed...,"
"That shows real insight into...," "Are you sure
you have considered...," "Thanks for responding
to X...," "I have yet to see you or anyone
mention..."
27
6. Cognitive Task Structuring "You know, the
task asks you to do...," "Ok, as was required,
you should now summarize the peer responses that
you have received...," "How might the textbook
authors have solved this case."
28
8. Push to Explore "You might want to write to
Dr. XYZ for...," "You might want to do an ERIC
search on this topic...," "Perhaps there is a URL
on the Web that addresses this topic..."
29
How to Combine these Roles?
30
E-Moderator

• Refers to online teaching and facilitation role.
  Moderating used to mean to preside over a meeting
  or a discussion, but in the electronic world, it
  means more than that. It is all roles
  combinedto hold meetings, to encourage, to
  provide information, to question, to summarize,
  etc. (Collins Berge, 1997 Gilly Salmon, 2000)
  see http//www.emoderators.com/moderators.shtml.

35
Facilitating Electronic Discussion

• Have Students Initiate, Sign up for Roles
• Provide Guidelines and Structure
• Weave and Summarize Weekly
• Be patient, prompt, and clear
• Foster Role Play, Debate, and Interaction
• Assign Due Dates, Times, and Points
• Constantly Monitor, Converse not Dictate
• Assign Buddies/Pals or Include Mentoring

36
Is it that simple?
NOPE!!!
37
There is a Problem
38
Were Handing out degrees in electronic page
turning!!!

• To get the certificate, learners merely needed to
  read (i.e. click through) each screen of
  material

39
But How Avoid Shovelware???This form of
structure encourages teachers designing new
products to simply shovel existing resources
into on-line Web pages and discourages any
deliberate or intentional design of learning
strategy. (Oliver McLoughlin, 1999)

How Bad Is It?

• Some frustrated Blackboard users who say the
  company is too slow in responding to technical
  problems with its course-management software have
  formed an independent users group to help one
  another and to press the company to improve.
• (Jeffrey Young, Nov. 2, 2001, Chronicle of Higher
  Ed)

42
Must Online Learning be Boring?
What Motivates Adult Learners to Participate?
43
Intrinsic Motivation

• innate propensity to engage ones interests and
  exercise ones capabilities, and, in doing so, to
  seek out and master optimal challenges
• (i.e., it emerges from needs, inner strivings,
  and personal curiosity for growth)

See Deci, E. L., Ryan, R. M. (1985). Intrinsic
motivation and self-determination in human
behavior. NY Plenum Press.
44
Extrinsic Motivation

• is motivation that arises from external
  contingencies. (i.e., students who act to get
  high grades, win a trophy, comply with a
  deadlinemeans-to-an-end motivation)
• See Johnmarshall Reeve (1996). Motivating Others
  Nurturing inner motivational resources. Boston
  Allyn Bacon.
