The reading for Theme 3 was challenging and full of novel concepts and examples, and thanks to this assignment, I revisited the theme and the readings.

Topic 4: Defining OER-enabled Pedagogy Great post, your perspective has given me a lot of fresh inspiration. When I was reading this I only focused on the OER test, but after reading your post I realized that it is more important to look at what the students are getting out of the method. It helps […]

I think it depends on different courses, for example, some quantitative classes only need to assign appropriate classroom-related homework to students. Students go home to practice what they have learned […]

POST 2

This section focuses on the components and examples of course structure when teaching online. When I finished reading this paragraph, I noticed that the text pointed out that more and more people use “traditional online courses” to refer to closed courses, which indicates that people have regarded online courses as a new branch of educational […]

POST 1

Of this week’s readings, this article——“Ethical challenges of edtech, big data and personalized learning: twenty-first century student sorting and tracking .” appeals to me the most. It mainly talks about big data learning and the privacy issues that come with it. To be honest, when talking about personalized learning through big data I never thought […]
