innovate and distance learning
Friday, February 02, 2007
Great resource for educational technology. This is one of those “high content-low fluff” websites which really gives us some good things to think about - there are articles about pedagogy and learning, and thoughtful reviews about relevant websites. In fact, it’s triggered some of my thinking about distance learning.
To be honest, as a primary school educator (now in secondary), I’ve been cool to the “distance learning” thing (which innovate seems to focus on). I think distance learning doesn’t lend itself to younger learners.
I am however, an advocate of making learning materials online - handouts, important announcements, things like that. Our school uses blackboard and I’m very happy with it.
As a support to classroom learning? fantastic? As a primary learning tool? Nyet.
Good stuff.
