In my current institution we are trying to replace 1:1 support for integrating technology in learning and teaching with self supporting online resources. This is quite a job as technology enhanced learning is a large area, we have created stuff and there is lots to repurpose out there. Differentiating between content creation and delivery is quite a challenge too and given that this is a sizeable resource in itself it needs to be constrained. The approach that we take when creating a resource is to cover:
So with respect to the above, what, why and when will have some interrelationship as this covers the rationales and examples of best practice. The how relates to tools and also to an extent delivery. We are going to take an institutional perspective look at the etools we already have but we may want to look at stuff in the cloud and also, we want to include diy audio and video production, something that commonly gets raised by colleagues when we talk about creating online content.
We have started off with a brainstorm to hone in on the areas we want to focus on and some of the issues we want to address - I used de Bono to help with this. As this is the project I will be overseeing I will use the blog to keep myself up-to-date with progress and you may find this interesting too!
