Vol 3, No 2 (2008): International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (iJET)

This interdisciplinary journal aims to focus on the exchange of relevant trends and research results as well as the presentation of practical experiences gained while developing and testing elements of technology enhanced learning. So it aims to bridge the gape between pure academic research journals and more practical publications. So it covers the full range from research, application development to experience reports and product descriptions.

Web 2.0 Services

A panel composed of representatives from leading vendors took time to discuss the impact and implications of “Web 2.0” on the learning market.

Building a Learning Culture
By Dr. Mark Rosenberg

You can’t just implement e-learning into an organization that’s not ready for it, doesn’t support it, or doesn’t have a culture based on knowledge sharing.

Making Learning Fun and Social
By Anders Gronstedt

Learning can be both fun and social thanks to Second Life and other virtual worlds, which hold promise for a new generation of learners.

LMS’s 2008: What You Need to Know
By Chris Howard

The LMS market is still growing steadily, but a slowdown is due partly to saturation in the global enterprise market and some commoditization of learning management systems.

Measuring the Learning Experience
By Nicolas Igneri

The ability to measure the effectiveness of the learning solution on the individual and organization is here, thanks to organizations like the American Management Association.

CA Consolidates Successfully

In 2006, one of the world’s largest independent software companies set out to consolidate nine legacy LMSs. The project involved migrating more than 1 million learning records, 44,000 classes, 17,000 users and 4,000 courses.

Educause: Volume 43, Number 2, March/April 2008

Hoy traemos el último número de Educause :

• Conference Connections: Rewiring the Circuit
  George Siemens, Peter Tittenberger, and Terry Anderson
  Increased openness, two-way dialogue, and blurred distinctions between experts and amateurs have combined with numerous technology tools for dialogue, personal expression, networking, and community formation to “remake” conferences, influencing not only how attendees participate in but also how organizers host conferences today.
• Architectures for Collaboration: Roles and Expectations for Digital Libraries
  Peter Brantley
  Libraries are successful to the extent that they can bridge communities and can leverage the diversity of the quest, the research, and the discovery. By building bridges among various sectors, libraries will be able to define themselves in the next generation.
• E-Books in Higher Education: Nearing the End of the Era of Hype?
  Mark R. Nelson
  What is the reality with respect to e-books? Will e-books finally take off? After nearly two decades of talking about how e-books are right around the corner, have we finally reached the corner?
• 
  Open to Change: An Interview with Leaders of the Open University
  Richard N. Katz
  “The movement toward open content forces us to really think about what value it is we bring to students who enroll at the Open University. I think that we are getting to that tipping point—rethinking the underlying pedagogy with which we have conventionally delivered distance education and open learning.”

Para el que no la conozca:

«EDUCAUSE Review is the association’s award-winning magazine for the higher education IT community.

Lessons from an International e-Learning Project

Hoy traemos este artículo de The International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning, Vol 8, No 3 (2007), ISSN: 1492-3831

Paul Breen
Holborn College, London
UK

Abstract

This paper offers a critical examination of an e-learning project in the context of a Distance Education training program delivered to teacher trainers by an external university in Rwanda. In examining the successes and failures of the project, it uses a framework based on ideas promulgated by Moore (1995) and strives to provide guidance and reference for future projects in this field.

Introduction

Moore (1995) describes how, in May 1995, The American Center for the Study of Distance Education hosted the Third Distance Education Research Symposium Conference, in which a group of researchers were asked to consider “the effect of research on improving the quality of distance education practice” (p. 1). In setting out a framework for analysis, they identified “four key research areas: course design, instruction, policy and administration, and learners and learning” (p. 4).

By Moore’s (1995) own admission, there is a considerable degree of overlap within these four key research areas, but they serve to offer structure in a field where so much research is autonomous and unconnected. Although all online learning and development projects should be implemented on a case-by-case basis, there is a clear need for comparative studies. This is advocated in the work of Gourley (2004), and Keniston (2001) who in writing about the Indian context, notes that India abounds with pilot projects that rarely form part of any larger plan and which include little thought or consideration of how they might be replicated on a larger scale beyond the boundaries of the individual projects.(leer más…)

Going the Distance: Towards a new professionalism for full-time distance education faculty at the University of the Philippines

Hoy traemos este artículo de The International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning, Vol 8, No 3 (2007), ISSN: 1492-3831

Patricia B. Arinto
University of the Philippines, Open University

Abstract

Several constraints influence the formation of a professional identity by full-time distance education faculty at the University of the Philippines. One of these is the marginalisation of distance education (DE) in the academy as a consequence of DE’s identification with low status disciplines, as well as with developments in higher education that are undermining traditional academic identities. There are also constraints arising from the social organisation of distance education itself. The paper offers a (re)conceptualisation of academic professionalism for distance education faculty that is more responsive to the challenges that they face, and more empowering for themselves and the academic and other communities of which they are a part.

Keywords: Distance education faculty; academic professionalism; faculty development

Introduction

How do faculty of distance education (DE) institutions form a professional identity as members of the academic community when their very status as academics is in question and certain conventions of academic life are absent from the DE setting in which they operate? What models of academic professionalism can they look to, and perhaps emulate, when traditional academics norms and values are under challenge and are far from stable? (leer más…)
