It's Monday so it's time for a rant...love seeing all the articles on #onlinelearning - I'd just like to welcome you all to the party that's been going on for decades - #lrnchat and #guildchat have been great hosts for that party (& tons of others) but HOLY CRAP people....
Let's get some things straight - it's NOT online "learning." That's inaccurate - it's online instruction or training or content or classes but learning takes places where it always has..inside people's heads. Next, all this online work will NOT change the way people learn...
..they will learn the same way they always have and NO learning styles are not useful here. What will change are the ways we construct opportunities for learning to occur. What will change are the levels of access people have to content and tools...
Thread: So I have to write an assignment in which I "identify a new technology that is currently influencing workplace education & training, provide a weblink that describes the new technology, & describe how the new technology is making an impact (+ve or -ve).
So although Twitter isn't really a "new" technology, if somebody isn't using Twitter it would be new to them, so I think that counts #edtech
I've been using Twitter for almost 5 years, and in that time, have connected with educators across the globe to share ideas, learn together and encourage each other.
