Meeting a colleague at UPC general meeting. |
|
| Carmen what three things have you learned about online/blended learning? | |
|
| Well, first about the wonderful tools we have available to exploit. Really amazing! The importance of create a rubric, and the flexibility in adapting activities from the book and to do them online. | |
|
|
|
|
Talking about the online traing course. |
|
| what have you learned about pair and group work? | |
|
| To be patient when trying to contact partners, agreeing on how to contribute to the group and also reflecting on how strict should we be when stating deadlines. Maybe considering an extension of one more day, obviously with certain kind of penalization, would still encourage to finish the task and not to give up easily. | |

|
|
Think about the next online courses. |
|
| How can you design effective tasks for blended delivery? | |
|
| I would design tasks in the same way I developed.From the most simple to the most complex ones, and providing appropriate feedback at each stage. And about validity of ss online writings, I would make sure ss do the first part in class so I can monitor at least and have an idea of what they are thinking of, and then I would compare to the final product. Providing graphic organizers would be of great help, for instance. | |
