SLOAN-C Presentation Proposal

Learning Out Loud: Transparency in Teaching & Learning

Premise

Hosting and facilitating a graduate level course using open access tools (wiki, social bookmarking, blogs and RSS) rather than a commercial Learning Management System (LMS).

Notes

Constructivist approach to T&L

    Project-based learning

    Problem-based/solution oriented learning

Modeling: Uses tools that teachers will more likely have access to rather than a proprietary system.

Concerns

Open feedback from unknown entities

Protect grading feedback, info

Testing - not used

Formative assessment to guide learning, summative assessment to contribute to final grade
