The need to engage students studying at a distance in order to reduce isolation, foster a sense of belonging and enhance learning has received significant attention over the past few years. Conversely, very little research has focused on teachers working in this type of environment. In fact, we argue, they appear to be the forgotten dimension in ‘communities’ of distance learning. In this paper we identify some of the problems generated by teaching university subjects simultaneously across a network of campuses: a practice known as multi‐location teaching. We examine strategies for engaging multi‐location teachers as key contributors to a quality learning experience for students, and provide an analysis of how identified teaching needs and professional development are addressed within one particular teaching team by a small but powerful micro‐practice called the ‘Tutors’ Forum’. Drawing on data collected through a survey and interviews conducted over 2006/07, we discuss the benefits and critical success factors of the Tutors’ Forum in facilitating engagement and professional development for teachers working at a distance from the subject coordinator and other members of the teaching team. These factors include a specific style of leadership that fosters an inclusive, dialogic space where the patterns of interaction are characterised by reciprocity, collegiality and professional care. We discuss the implications of this practice for the further engagement of university teachers in an increasingly casualised and fragmented higher education sector. 相似文献

Whether our students are sitting in the room with us as we teach, sitting in their home listening, participating by video-conference,
or answering discussion questions on an online platform, technology can play a pivotal role in student learning. In this article
we discuss technology in higher education, specifically its role in hybrid or online formats. As Renard (2005) so eloquently stated, "No generation has ever had to wait so little time for so much information" (p. 44). Presented here
is a discussion of the types of students who benefit from distance learning, the factors that prompt instructors to engage
in distance learning, and what instructors should know about distance education before they begin teaching with this kind
of delivery. 相似文献

In this paper, we argue for a new synthesis of two pedagogic theories: feminist pedagogy and transactional distance, which explain why and how distance education has been such a positive system for women in a national distance learning university. We illustrate this with examples of positive action initiatives for women. The concept of transactional distance allows us to explore distance as a form of psychological and communication space, not simply of geographical distance. Feminist pedagogy, on the other hand, has recognised the importance of gender in structuring disciplines as well as teaching strategies. Both theories implicitly position the face-to-face classroom as the ideal learning environment, with the implication that distance learning has to produce a deficient environment. We argue that the evidence for women does not support this and present examples of feminist distance learning provision that has offered successful technology-enhanced learning and educational opportunities. 相似文献

我国远程教育生源复杂,若不考虑学习者的个性化特征与需求,势必会降低远程教育的质量,因此如何为远程学习者提供差异化教学,是当前远程教育领域的重要研究课题。教学目标对教学过程起着导向作用,与学习活动及学习支持的设计息息相关,差异化教学目标设计是远程教育差异化教学的基础工作。在微观视角下,远程教学目标的差异化设计应以学习过程三阶段（即信息接收、信息组织与分化、问题解决）假设为基点,使用言语信息和智慧技能来解释行为目标,用问题解决来解释生成性目标。由于行为目标与生成性目标有其各自的差异化设计要素,以及远程学习者在学习过程的不同阶段体现出不同的学习偏好,因此将教学目标的差异化设计要素与学习者的学习偏好相匹配,即可形成微观视角下远程教学目标的差异化设计流程。这一设计流程为如何设计差异化教学目标以及开发测量学习者特征差异的实践工具提供了理论框架。 相似文献

In this article Derek Rowntree of the Open University UK's, Institute of Educational Technology, examines the implications of quality assessment for distance education and other forms of materials‐based learning. He suggests that materials‐based teaching cannot properly be judged in quite the same terms as the conventional, face‐to‐face teaching that academic peers are most familiar with. So what might they be looking for when they come to assess the quality of a department's materials‐based teaching? And what might we expect to result from such assessments? 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to develop guiding principles to encourage higher levels of teaching and learning in Web-based distance education. The research framework used Zetterberg's (1962) model for change. Data from semi-structured interviews with university instructors who had experience in teaching Web-based distance education courses, a focus group interview with educational technologists, a review of related literature, and my own reflective journal, provided insights for the development of teaching and learning principles. A validation process was then conducted from experts and scholars in the field through a consensus survey. The outcome was the development of a model with nine principles that facilitate higher levels of teaching and learning in Web-based distance education. 相似文献

The concept of blended learning has begun to change the nature of all teaching and learning in higher education. Information
and communication technologies have impacted by providing a means of access to digital resources and interactive communication
for all courses and the blending of pedagogy and technology has produced a range of approaches to teaching and learning. This
paper discusses the research literature and the writers’ research, defining what they have concluded are teaching practices
that use the concept of blended learning effectively. In investigating how ICT can add variation for student learning, they
analyze this from two dominant modes of pedagogy, learning environment and pedagogy through both on-campus and distance education.
In both modes, students acknowledged the power and effectiveness of blended learning. 相似文献

A Challenge for the Developer: Issues of interactivity and linguistic-cognitive appropriateness in English language learning 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Anita Y. K. Poon 《Open Learning》2013,28(2):135-153
It is argued that language learning ought to be interactive. The traditional language classroom provides a favourable interactive situation for language learners. By contrast, the distance education mode is limited in some ways regarding language learning. Necessarily, distance education involves, primarily, self-learning. Face-to-face learning opportunities are scant compared with traditional classroom-based learning. It is, therefore, a challenge for language professionals to explore new ways of teaching language, the speaking skills in particular, within the constraints of the distance education mode. Being able to master English--an increasingly important international language--provides a key to information and learning societies in the 21 st century. In this paper, I will suggest some ways of maximizing the amount of interactive activities in English language distance learning, based on my work-based experience as a course developer of a new English enhancement course offered by the Open University of Hong Kong. I will focus on the development of listening and speaking skills, which are in fact the most problematic areas--the speaking skill, in particular, involves two-way communication. I will consider the issue from the perspectives of learners' motivation, peer support and technological support. Finally, I will present findings of a survey on the learners and tutors' feedback on the teaching materials of this new English language enhancement course. 相似文献

远程教育教学资源建设策略研究 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
教学资源是现代远程教育的核心要素之一,教学资源建设应重点研究其建设的策略。近年来,随着远程教育的发展,教学资源的数量和种类在不断扩大,但应该如何在教学资源的设计中体现成人学习者的工作经验,加强网上教学资源的交互性设计,有效提高学习者的协作学习和探讨性学习能力,科学地设计多样性的教学资源、合理地配置教学媒体与教学内容,仍是在资源建设中要研究的问题。工学科的教学资源建设在远程教育中具有典型的意义,本丈在分析其现状的基础上,结合教学实践案例,提出了远程教育资源建设的策略：一体化设计下的开放性、融合性、交互性与多样性原则。本文还结合中国中央广播电视大学计算机专业教学资源建设的案例,探索了理论指导下课程资源建设的实践,具有一定的指导意义。 相似文献

It has been said that assumptions regarding learning are implicit in designs of instruction and education. The purpose of this article is to explore the assumptions of the teaching‐learning process in distance education. Cognitive constructivist learning theory is used to clarify current and emerging assumptions regarding teaching and learning at a distance. It is suggested that perhaps a cognitive constructivist view of learning may provide a perspective for distance educators to clarify their assumptions and design instruction that is more than efficient assimilation of prescribed content. 相似文献
