Assignment:
Based on the research, the expert interviews, and chats with learners, revise your learning problem. Include: WHO needs to learn WHAT and WHY it is important. Include citations from research, and insights gained from interviews with experts and learners. Post your updated “problems” here.
Response:
Problem Statement
Communities, companies and countries have to be able to share knowledge and educate their peers in order to thrive. The traditional methods of doing so are through books, talks, documentaries, and interviews. We want to learn from the best, understand how they do it and be more like them. But sometimes we just want to talk to someone, interact with them – learn from a human being – even if it is not the expert – maybe even better if it is someone who speaks more like I do. How can technology enable this?
Research Question
How might we scaffold “experts” to create engaging hybrid courses?
Keywords
- Hybrid Online Learning
- Instructional Design
- Teacher Professional Development
- TPACK
- Metacognition
- Self efficacy
- Onboarding
How Might We?
- Extract value from experts?
- Identify what an expert knows that is of interest?
- Ask for knowledge from an expert?
- Increase the reach knowledge distribution?
- Reduce teacher repetition of content?
Potential solution paths
- TMS – Teaching Management System
- Templates for teaching
- Curated content
- Modeling
- Lesson plans
- Exercises
- Assessment
- Individual activities
- Group activities
Findings
- Time based courses are the ones that perform better.
- Necessity of human interaction – be part of a cohort
- Teachers need additional training to handle interactions and drive engagement in online environments
