Cost & time efficient learning? Four easy options & an enigma

Inge de Waard

Common goal & challenges

• Recognized Educational Leader in Renewable & Sustainable Energy

• Ensure cost efficient and evidence-based innovative learning

• Increase Active, Authentic learning across SELECT program

(famous engineers: http://students.egfi-k12.org/famous-engineers/ )

Four easy options & an enigma• Using Open Educational Resources

(in- & outside EIT – InnoEnergy)

• Flipped lectures: optimized use of teacher know-how

• Activating students: making learning visible & increase critical skills

• Using Authentic Infrastructure imagery and details

• Enigma?

OER Examples

• InnoEnergy’s Small Private Online Course (SPOC) on entrepreneurship in renewable energy: http://ise.innoenergy.com/en/web/entrepreneurship-in-renewable-energy-executive-certificate

• MOOC (Coursera) Innovation & Entrepreneurship – from basics to Open Innovation - Martin Vendel, starts 3 July – Certificate 44 $ without certificate free - https://www.coursera.org/learn/open-innovation-entrepreneurship/lecture/oK6BP/course-introduction

• You know this better than I do! You are the content experts, the curation specialists.

MOOCs as OERCoursera, EdX, Iversity, Fun,

xuetangx, FutureLearn…

OER by curation

• Content curation through student crowdsourcing

• Browsing courses as part of Continued Professional Development - field expert (connect with role models)

Creating (O)ER within InnoEnergy

• Recording lecture or talking head (scripting & timing !): webcam, Jing, Camtasia, PPT, Articulate, hangout, or simply free using https://screencast-o-matic.com/ …

• Recording with a green screen (e.g. Martin Vendel, additional visual context)

• More on video narration and scripting here (Google drive and CommUnity)

Flipped lecture: optimized use of teacher know-how

• For reoccurring complex content

• Deep-learning and guided support

• Content prior to lecture (baseline, pre-meeting reflection & understanding, focused added value in lecture)

• Teacher know-how par excellence!

• Ingrid & Andreas!

Activating students: making learning visible & increase critical skills

Learner-centered – easy steps

• Small whiteboards or papers

• Online tools: Mentimeter or Poll-everywhere

• Peer reviews (PoY)

Small whiteboards/papers

• Easy & low tech

• Demand attention & ignite reflection

• Teaching assistant needed for remote student groups

Q - Which option do you

prefer? (paper)

• OER

• Flipped lectures

• Activating students

• Enigma?

• Using a crocodile?

• Other?

Mentimeter or Poll-everywhere (plug-in)

Open and closed

• Open and closed (MCQ) answers to questions

1

Ensure understanding

• More personal: establishing prior knowledge, ensure understanding, ask personal interest…

2

Visible learning

• Make learning visible to you the teacher, add reflective action, demand attention

3

G/local

• Across locations with slide number + online polling

4

Peer reviews – student critical evaluation enhancement

• Content + rubric (= grading scale) with priority elements to be evaluated• Create additional reflection on own work, ensure balanced, meaningful

feedback, increase evaluation skills• Teacher set-up, student action• Possible on LMS’s? Otherwise: cut into small discussions per rubric.

360° infrastructure insights

• Example picture

• Embed authentic infrastructure or engineering sites

• Simple to costly solutions (Theta S to 5 camera recording crew outsourced production)

• Stills or movie (twitter example picture, YouTube example movie)

• Teacher or spatial intelligent learner with equipment during field visit

Real life timing….

• Increase Active, Authentic learning across SELECT program

We are building the Famous Engineers of the Future!

Recognised Educational Leader in Renewable & Sustainable Energy

Offer

Offer the most up-to-date content for all levels (Continued Professional Development)

Personalize

Personalize learning tracks depending on prior knowledge (nugget repository, target approaches, challenge driven Ed)

Develop

Develop all necessary skills (Coaching based on GC Index, innovative thinking, societal awareness)

Ensure cost efficient and evidence-based innovative learning

Reusing material (OER, content across courses based on granularity)

Reusing

Knowing how to quickly curate new content (learners crowdsourcing content, personal learning environment support)

Knowing

Increase Active, Authentic learning across SELECT program

Challenge-driven education: Project of the Year, active learning and tackling challenges with innovation

1

Learn from authentic problems and environments (360°camera, contextualise assignments)

2

Cost-effective teaching (teacher reward, time efficiency, focus on surplus from teacher input)

3

What we will take on• Ensuring optimisation

between repository andlocal LMS

• Compare & secure smoothlocation to locationconferencing tools

• Gather your ideas, comments and feedback & USE them

• Follow granular content hierarchy across courses
