NOT just another Education and Digital Cultures 2017 site
This fits nicely with our conversation about what’s bubbling away beneath the surface.
My perspective of this course community and its activity is different from other peoples’ perspectives but we take our own as fact regardless of the possibility of it being wrong due to a narrow filter of view.
Going to make a pot of tea and watch this, thanks

Well it happened. I’m on a photography MOOC and I got sucked in. I’m loving it.
The community has been quite quiet over the first week but I’ve been asked to join a facebook group so hoping that’ll be a bit more lively.

This is indeed one of the fears of choosing a MOOC on a subject you are interested in, getting caught up. Do we have time to dedicate our student lives to two courses? Can one serve two masters?
I don’t want to give up my MOOC when I have written my netnography piece, it’s a really interesting MOOC and I feel like I have a connection with the instructors.
On a side note, why do I say instructors on a MOOC and not lecturers?

Thanks for sharing these videos Renee. They are really helpful.
I’ve been feeling a bit lost and without guidance on this, and these videos definitely give me a starting point.
I think this may be quite an undertaking 🙂
thanks

Peer support in our little community.
Oh now that could be incredibly interesting. How do you plan to stop yourself getting sucked in and becoming a proper MOOC participant?
🙂

It’s been really interesting to watch people chose their MOOCs and I think the choices are a little telling of the different people on the group. Stuart’s sounded really interesting, just the kind of geeky thing I’d expect form someone using the handle @learntechstu
I agree with the rethink Helen, there is too much weight given to learning spaces being a recognised, I hate to say official, place. One of the examples I use is that I often think about things away from the learning environment as it seems to help me process. A perfect example I used for a previous course is available on my media hopper channel, I set up a camera and chatted to myself about “learnification”. Biesta, G.J.J., 2012. Giving Teaching Back to Education: Phenomenology & Practice, 6(2), pp.35–49.
Is my kitchen less of a learning space? It’s my main thinking space, my place where I concrete my thoughts…

What an interesting observation Eli. I was really interested in Miller’s observations about ‘homo faber’: ‘the maker and user of objects, his self to a large extent a reflection of things withe which he interacts.’ (Csikszentmihalyi and Rochberg-Halton, 1981:1). I guess one of the key things for me is how little the interaction of human and tool/tech has been reflected in the design of pedagogical spaces or practice. Bayne highlighted this, noting how technology is often perceived as simply an enhancement of current practice. Key questions aren’t asked about how the ‘entanglement’ of learner and technology, of teacher and technology, perhaps requires a radical rethink of how and where we teach and learn.

I really enjoyed the journey through technology. It’s too easy to forget that new educational technologies weren’t always digital, yet sparked the same debate about how they would ruin/change education and or the human mind 🙂

Loving this Stuart. The very quiet music throughout give an eery, slightly scary background while the images and sounds build a great picture.
Really well thought out, that dithering was worthwhile.
Gotta love Adobe spark 🙂
