1 E-learning 2.0, in contrast to e-learning systems not based on CSCL, assumes that

knowledge (as meaning and understanding) is Social constructionism|socially

constructed. Learning takes place through conversations about content and Grounded

theory|grounded interaction about problems and actions. Advocates of social learning claim that one of the best ways to

learn something is to teach it to others.

E-learning

1 E-learning can occur in or out of the classroom. It can be self-paced,

asynchronous learning or may be instructor-led, synchronous learning.

E-learning is suited to distance learning and flexible learning, but it can also be used in conjunction with face-to-face teaching, in which case

the term blended learning is commonly used.

E-learning - Classroom 2.0

1 Classroom 2.0 refers to online MUVE|multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs) that

connect schools across geographical frontiers. Also known as eTwinning, computer-

supported collaborative learning (CSCL) allows learners in one school to communicate with learners in another that they would not

get to know otherwise, enhancing educational outcomes and cultural

integration. Examples of classroom 2.0 applications are Blogger and Skype.

E-learning - Audio

1 The radio has been around for a long time and has been used in

educational classrooms. Recent technologies have allowed classroom

teachers to stream audio over the internet. There are also webcasts and podcasts available over the internet

Service-learning

1 Service learning is a method of teaching that combines classroom

instruction with meaningful community service. This form of

learning emphasizes critical thinking and personal reflection while

encouraging a heightened sense of community, civic engagement, and

personal responsibility. The Community Service Act of 1990, which authorized the Learn and Serve America grant program,

defines service learning as:

Service-learning

1 a method under which students or participants learn and develop through active participation in

thoughtfully organized service that is conducted in and meets the needs of a community; is coordinated with an elementary school, secondary school,

institution of higher education, or community service program, and

with the community; and helps foster civic responsibility; and that is

integrated into and enhances the academic curriculum of the students, or the educational components of the community service program in which

the participants are enrolled; and provides structured time for the

students or participants to reflect on the service experience

following ways:

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

Service-learning - Key components

1 * Curricular connections- Integrating learning into a service project is key

to successful service learning. Academic relations should be clear and build upon existing disciplinary

skills.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

Service-learning - Key components

1 * Student voice - Beyond being actively engaged in the project itself,

students have the opportunity to select, design, implement, and evaluate their service activity,

encouraging relevancy and sustained interest. In community settings, this is alternatively called 'youth voice'.

Service-learning - Key components

1 * 'Students discussion' - Students discuss their learning experience during in-class

discussions.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

Service-learning - Key components

1 * Reflection - Structured opportunities are created to think, talk, and write about the service

experience. The balance of reflection and action allows a student to be constantly aware of the impact of

their work.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

Service-learning - Key components

1 * Community partnerships - Partnerships with community

agencies are used to identify genuine needs, provide mentors, and to work towards completing a project. In a successful partnership, both sides will give to and benefit from the

project. In order for this partnership to be successful, clear guide lines must be implemented as to how

often a student engages in service to a particular community agency.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

Service-learning - Key components

1 * Authentic community needs – Local community members or service

recipients are involved in determining the significance and

depth of the service activities involved.

student merely thinking, “I should go volunteer at the humane society,”

pragmatism encourages that student to go out and do it.

E-learning (theory)

1 'E-learning theory' describes the cognitive science principles of

effective multimedia e-learning. Cognitive research and theory

suggest that selection of appropriate concurrent multimedia modalities

may enhance learning, as may application of several other

principles.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

E-learning (theory) - Principles

1 Richard E. Mayer's modality principle states that if materials contain both

verbal and graphical information, the verbal information should be given in

auditory format only, and not as written text as well.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

E-learning (theory) - Principles

1 Theoretically, the modality principle is based on a model of working memory by Alan Baddeley and

Graham Hitch who proposed that working memory has two largely

independent sub-components that tend to work in parallel - one visual and one verbal/acoustic. This gave

rise to dual-coding theory, first proposed by Allan Paivio and later

applied to multimedia by Richard E. Mayer|Richard Mayer.

https://store.theartofservice.com/the-e-learning-toolkit.html

E-learning (theory) - Principles

1 According to Mayer, separate channels of working memory process

auditory and visual information. Consequently, a learner can use

more cognitive processing capacities to study materials that combine auditory verbal information with

visual graphical information than to process materials that combine printed (visual) text with visual

graphical information. In other words, the multi modal materials reduce the cognitive load imposed on working

memory.

1 The initial studies of multimedia learning were limited to logical

scientific processes that centered on cause-and-effect systems like

automobile braking systems, how a bicycle pump works, or cloud

formation. However, subsequent investigations found that the

modality effect extended to other areas of learning.

contiguity, referring to the components being physically close to

each other on the page or screen, rather than being separated

1 Such principles may not apply outside of laboratory conditions. For example,

Muller found that adding approximately 50% additional extraneous but interesting material did not result in any significant difference in learner performance. There

principles, and on what Boundary critique|boundary conditions may apply.
