One of the course learning outcomes is to be able to describe the potential of human-centered learning in distributed and open learning contexts.
Throughout the course I did blog posting, peer commenting and group project to develop in meeting this outcome.
-
- “The most important benefit of this is students are possible to form their own view on the topic, not memorize the textbook but try to explain the topic with own’s thinking, I think thats the most significant advantage of blended learning.” Topic 1
- “open courses can be really helpful because it attracts people who really interested in the topic to share their ideas and help students who are formal learner to understand the topic better.” Topic 2
- “I think for both high level education and other education using OERs is a great way to improve students’ learning, and teachers can also tell students education should be fearless and creative, using OERs can cover more stuff besides textbooks, it helps students to learn with more perspectives and open their minds.” Topic 3
- “Before I read it I thought OER are just free resources that help students and teachers to reduce the fee of learning and teaching, it is all about the cost and money, and there are no barriers for them to use OERs in real teaching, it is just find a free and open resouce and use it to replace the textbook or support it. But now I find using OER in teaching is not a simple thing, there may be barriers like some students may have difficult to use OERs, this could be casued by hard to search the information they want among all the document on internet.” Topic 4: Acid-base Reaction and OER Pedagogy

From completing these activities, I learned open and distributed learning can be very helpful and effective because it breaks the restriction of traditional teaching and learning environment and resources.
The things I learned matter to me because they changes the way I learn in this and future courses, I will use more OERs in my futre learning to raise my ability to succeed.
Part2:
Updated:Expensive Textbook and Free knowledge
Original:Topic 3
I add explaination and examples about Revise and Remix concept, I write them into the post because I found my instructor’s comment on this is very reasonable, this post should have more things besides cost.
