Mind over Matter - Transforming Course Management Systems into Effective Learning Environments | ||
|---|---|---|
"The quick acceptance of course management systems (CMSs) by college and university faculty and students is leading to numerous questions: 1. What is happening in the generally slow-to-change environment of teaching and learning that is permitting this swift adoption? 2. Why would an often clunky, nothing-new-in-the-software application become so swiftly in disciplines across higher education? 3. Why would pedagogy that changes at the pace of a snail on holiday suddenly adopt the CMS for an anytime, all-the-time classroom experience? The answer to all these questions is threefold, involving (1) the CMS itself; (2) the deeper learning principles addressed by the CMS; and (3) the effective learning environment that is created when these principles are applied to the CMS." | ||

Supporting Distance Learners via Moodle Discussion Forums | ||
|---|---|---|
"The fundamental reason for using discussion forums is that they offer the potential to bridge the distance between student and tutor and between students themselves in distance learning courses. Realising that potential, however, places the tutor in a central role, particularly in the early stages of a course as students learn to negotiate the new learning environment as well as the subject content. A second important argument for the use of discussion forums is that writing – online discussion is a written form of communication - aids thinking and reflection" | ||
