To Cope with the Technology Explosion, We Need Instructor E-

Learning Support!!!

Page 13: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

Problems FacedAdministrative:• “Lack of admin vision.”• “Lack of incentive from

admin and the fact that they do not understand the time needed.”

• “Lack of system support.” • “Little recognition that this

is valuable.”• “Rapacious U intellectual

property policy.”• “Unclear univ. policies

concerning int property.”

Pedagogical:• “Difficulty in performing

lab experiments online.”• “Lack of appropriate

models for pedagogy.”Time-related:• “More ideas than time to

implement.” • “Not enough time to

correct online assign.”• “People need sleep; Web

spins forever.”

Changing Role of the TeacherThe Online Teacher, TAFE, Guy Kemshal-Bell (April, 2001)

• From oracle to guide and resource provider

• From providers of answers to expert questioners

• From solitary teacher to member of team

• From total control of teaching environment to sharing as a fellow student

• From provider of content to designer of learning experiences.

Page 16: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

• Little or no feedback given

• Always authoritative• Kept narrow focus of

what was relevant• Created tangential

discussions• Only used “ultimate”

deadlines

• Provided regular qual/quant feedback

• Participated as peer• Allowed perspective

sharing• Tied discussion to grades,

other assessments.• Used incremental

deadlines

What do we need???

FRAMEWORKS!

Page 18: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

1. Models of Technology in Teaching and Learning(Dennen, 1999, Bonk et al., 2001)

• Enhancing the Curriculum– computers for extra activities: drill and practice CD

• Extending the Curriculum– transcend the classroom with cross-cultural

collaboration, expert feedback, virtual field trips and online collaborative teams.

• Transforming the Curriculum– allowing learners to construct knowledge bases and

resources from multiple dynamic resources regardless of physical location or time.

Page 19: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

2. Reflect on Extent of Integration:The Web Integration Continuum

(Bonk et al., 2000)

Level 1: Course Marketing/Syllabi via the WebLevel 2: Web Resource for Student ExplorationLevel 3: Publish Student-Gen Web ResourcesLevel 4: Course Resources on the WebLevel 5: Repurpose Web Resources for Others======================================Level 6: Web Component is Substantive & GradedLevel 7: Graded Activities Extend Beyond ClassLevel 8: Entire Web Course for Resident StudentsLevel 9: Entire Web Course for Offsite StudentsLevel 10: Course within Programmatic Initiative

Page 20: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

3. Reflect on Interactions:Matrix of Web Interactions

(Cummings, Bonk, & Jacobs, 2002)

Instructor to Student: syllabus, notes, feedback

to Instructor: Course resources, syllabi, notes

to Practitioner: Tutorials, articles, listservs

Student to Student: Intros, sample work, debates

to Instructor: Voting, tests, papers, evals.

to Practitioner: Web links, resumes

Practitioner to Student: Internships, jobs, fieldtrips

to Instructor: Opinion surveys, fdbk, listservs

to Practitioner: Forums, listservs

Page 21: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

4. Four Key Hats of Instructors:

– Technical—do students have basics? Does their equipment work? Passwords work?

– Managerial—Do students understand the assignments and course structure?

– Pedagogical—How are students interacting, summarizing, debating, thinking?

– Social—What is the general tone? Is there a human side to this course? Joking allowed?

– Other: firefighter, convener, weaver, tutor, conductor, host, mediator, filter, editor, facilitator, negotiator, e-police, concierge, marketer, assistant, etc.

Page 23: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

5. Feedback/Praise: "Wow, I'm impressed...," "That shows real insight into...," "Are you sure you have considered...," "Thanks for responding to ‘X’...," "I have yet to see you or anyone

mention..."

Page 24: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

6. Cognitive Task Structuring: "You know, the task asks you to do...," "Ok, as was required, you should now summarize the peer responses that you have received...," "How might the textbook authors have solved this case."

Page 25: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

8. Push to Explore: "You might want to write to Dr. ‘XYZ’ for...," "You might want to do an ERIC search on this topic...," "Perhaps there is a URL on the Web that addresses this topic..."

Page 26: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

How to Combine these Roles?

Page 27: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

E-Moderator

• Refers to online teaching and facilitation role. Moderating used to mean to preside over a meeting or a discussion, but in the electronic world, it means more than that. It is all roles combined—to hold meetings, to encourage, to provide information, to question, to summarize, etc. (Collins & Berge, 1997; Gilly Salmon, 2000); see http://www.emoderators.com/moderators.shtml.

Page 28: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

Other Hats

Page 29: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

Other Hats

• Weaver—linking comments/threads• Tutor—individualized attention• Participant—joint learner• Provocateur—stir the pot (& calm flames)• Observer—watch ideas and events unfold• Mentor—personally apprentice students• Community Organizer—keep system going

Isit

thatsimple?

NOPE!!!

Page 34: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

There is a Problem…

Page 35: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

We’re Handing out degrees in electronic page turning!!!

• To get the certificate, learners merely needed to “read” (i.e. click through) each screen of material

Page 36: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

But How Avoid Shovelware???

“This form of structure… encourages teachers designing new products to simply “shovel” existing resources into on-line Web pages and discourages any deliberate or intentional design of learning strategy.” (Oliver & McLoughlin, 1999)

Page 37: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com
Page 38: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

How Bad Is It?

“Some frustrated Blackboard users who say the company is too slow in responding to technical problems with its course-management software have formed an independent users’ group to help one another and to press the company to improve.”

(Jeffrey Young, Nov. 2, 2001, Chronicle of Higher Ed)

Page 39: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

Must Online Learning be Boring?

What Motivates Adult Learners to Participate?

Page 40: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

Intrinsic Motivation“…innate propensity to engage one’s

interests and exercise one’s capabilities, and, in doing so, to seek out and master optimal challenges

(i.e., it emerges from needs, inner strivings, and personal curiosity for growth)

See: Deci, E. L., & Ryan, R. M. (1985). Intrinsic motivation and self-determination in human behavior. NY: Plenum Press.

Page 41: Engaging Students, Engaging Instructors: Fueling Active Learning Through Technology Integration Curt Bonk, Indiana University President, CourseShare.com

Extrinsic Motivation

“…is motivation that arises from external contingencies.” (i.e., students who act to get high grades, win a trophy, comply with a deadline—means-to-an-end motivation)

See Johnmarshall Reeve (1996). Motivating Others: Nurturing inner motivational resources. Boston: Allyn & Bacon.

Goal = critical thinking (analysis, evaluation), developing student interests, collaboration, discussion

e.g., Economics instructors incorporate time-sensitive data, on-line discussions as well as links to freshly-mounted websites into the delivery of most of the undergraduate courses in economics. Instructor reads and summarizes responses before class and weaves them into discussion and changes the lecture as appropriate.

e.g., To teach or expand the discussion of supply or elasticity, an instructor would add new links in the Just-in-Time Syllabus to breaking news about gasoline prices or the energy blackouts in California
