On Tuesday 20th of July 2010, I delivered the first portion of my blended course materials.
Aspects I successfully applied from the teaching course to the workshop held include
- Student / teacher, student / content and student / students interaction
- Challenging students (gave the students a more challenging online activity to do)
- Power sharing (told them that I didn’t know all the answers and let them see what they could come up with – helped the students to feel they were on the same level as me)
- Peer learning (students worked together on tasks)
- Engaging students (provided online activities that allowed the students to gain their own knowledge and interact with one another through completing a matching activity online where they constructed knowledge for themselves rather than relying on the teacher to give the answers)
- Relationship building (students were introduced to the online tools, shown an example of how to introduce themselves online and had the opportunity to introduce themselves to each other online and interact with one another and the lecturer)
The students appeared engaged and interested in what they were doing.
