I am using this list because I expect you or someone at your college would
like to know about our short course in methods of teaching online from the
Institute of Education, University of London. We have had numerous
teachers from the art and museums fields, who have gone on to create online
courses of their own. If there is a big enough group, then Paul Howard,
Curator at the Tate Modern is the facilitator.
We consider methods of teaching and syllabus design, closely tied to
educational needs of the campus as well as distance use. It gives a real
insight into e-learning provision from the student point of view.
As with much good modern teaching, we focus very much on group
collaborative learning, both in our method of running the course and in the
topics we discuss. There is also a wide range of special options for
special interests.
I'm referring to the long established Online Education & Training course.
It deals with general issues of teaching online with regular practical
tasks related to your own interests, and has a choice of optional topics on
using the internet to enhance teaching. These are expected to include
online discourse and moderating
computer-based assessment
mobile technologies
Real-time teaching with CHAT or video-conferencing and whiteboards
blogging and podcasting
The next start is 13 May 2007. We suggest you register as soon as
possible.
The course carries 30 UK credits towards either a masters or a diploma and
can be taken by 10 weeks distance study online.
The fee is £Stg 499, which can be paid by bank transfer, credit card or
instalments.
