    April eEducation Council 

    April is upon us and we are making the downhill run to the end of the semester. Lots of movement in the MOOC space and thought we might want to spend the bulk of our conversation around this major driver.

    1. MOOC PM project reporting conversation – Cole
    2. Take-away thoughts from the Coursera conference and ELI Spring Focus session on MOOCs – Group
    3. MOOC research strategy – Bart Pursel
    4. Copyright and fair use approaches in the College of Arts and Architecture – Keith Bailey & Gary Chinn

    Any other items, please add them as comments below.

    February eEducation Council Meeting Agenda 

    Hi Everyone. I’m sure your semester has gone like mine – everything seems to be happening at once and all of it is focused on online and hybrid courses. At least we’re not managing a transition out of ANGEL at the same time!

    Cole is out of town for next week’s eEducation council, so he has asked me to organize things. Here are some items for our meeting on February 7th from 10:00 to 11:30 in 118 Wagner:

    Quick Update on Art 10 in iTunesU (Allan)
    Learning Analytics (Chris Millet and Bart Pursel)
    World Campus Student Use of Technology (Janet May Dillon, Annie Taylor, and Stevie Rocco)
    Instructional Content Management System Requirements (Keith Bailey and Bart Pursel)

    See you all next week.

      Can any one help with the Polycom info, getting a “site busy” message?

        Sorry Wayne. We’ve been working with TNS to try to fix the issue. No luck so far.

      All of these write-ups, interviews, etc that are taking place as part of the “Occupy” idea would make amazing data points to drive a broader, data-driven assessment of learning spaces across the university. I’m thinking all this qualitative data would lead to the emergence of 5-7 solid variables that could be worked into a few survey questions that then go out on a faculty/student survey down the road.

      Lots of interesting ways to leverage all this data that could really impact how the university, as a whole, starts to assess these spaces on a big scale.

      Yammer Question: I find it a morass because there are so many groups and some of them are duplicates. How does one know what to join or how to find the information?

    • Allan Gyorke 10:55 am on March 14, 2012 Permalink | Log in to Reply

      Yammer: 3 year license, connected to Penn State authentication and understand attributes, Heather Huntsinger (Training Services) is the project manager. They have a footprint in 80% of Fortune 500 companies.

      Don’t know where to this should go, but the audio is out over polycom. It was open working for a few minutes, but now silent.

    • Cole Camplese 1:22 pm on March 8, 2012 Permalink | Log in to Reply

      Sure is. Sorry about that!

      The meeting is on March 14, not March 12, right?

    Looks like we will be able to fit one more eEducation Council meetings in prior to the break. I think given the strain of the last month or so we will all be happy to find time to get away and reflect. There are so many things happening in and around PSU that it is never hard to fill 90 minutes, but I wanted to solicit ideas for the next meeting … we can do some updates if that is needed, but we can also take the time to continue our discussion of eLearning tools and approaches. Leave a comment below or email me ideas … I will be assembling them into an agenda by the end of the week.

    Remember, any updates you share should be tagged with “December 2011” … see you soon!

    The December meeting will be held in 118 Wagner on 12/14/2011 from 3:00-4:30.

    October 2011 Agenda 

    The eEducation Council meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday, October 5 from 10:00 – 11:30 am in 118 Wagner. If you plan on attending by video-conferencing please provide me with the location no later than Tuesday, September 27th.

    So much to look at and so little time. We are changing the format of eEducation for the 2011-2012 academic year. Instead of taking up our face to face time with a series of updates, we will focus our 90 minutes on topical discussions. We have added a series of short updates to review prior to the meeting for you to view whenever you want. Leave comments or add new posts about any of these items.

    We will spend the majority of the time looking at various eLearning Content Management strategies from across Penn State. A general overview of the use of eLCMS tools will be provided and then various organizations will do short presentations to expose their approaches. Our goals are to have a deeper understanding of the use of these tools, to better understand common workflows, and to identify areas potential overlap and collaborations.

    Agenda

    • Brief overview of new eEd format and web space — Cole Camplese
    • Brief overview of eLearning Content Management thinking — Cole Camplese
    • Brief overview of the World Campus approach to eLearning Content Management — Andrea Gregg, Eleanor Lehman, Lynne Johnson
    • Brief overview of the College of IST’s approach to eLearning Content Management — Amy Garbrick
    • Brief overview of the College of the Liberal Art’s approach to eLearning Content Management — Cathy Holsing
    • Brief overview of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences’ approach to eLearning Content Management — Stevie Rocco and Ann Taylor
    • Brief overview of the College of Arts and Architecture’s approach to eLearning Content Management and design philosophy — Keith Bailey
    • General thoughts and ideas going forward — Conversation Lead by Keith Bailey

    If you have additional thoughts for the agenda please leave a comment to this post or start a new thread using the tag, September 2011.

      If we want to leave lots of time for discussion, each update will have to be pretty concise – maybe 5-7 minutes each?

    • Keith Bailey 2:49 pm on September 7, 2011 Permalink | Log in to Reply

      At the end of this discussion, I would love to see the learning design community form an ad hoc task-force focused on establishing common needs and requirements for an instructional content management system for the University. Are there common set of best practices that can be included in such a system with the hope of enabling a wider adoption of best practices with online courses? Are there common learning design approaches which can be standardized across the University which will help with the perceived issue for a need to develop “a common look and feel” for online courses? How can the PSU Online Quality Standards be used as a spring board to help influence the technical requirements of an instructional content management solution for the University? These are just a few questions a task-force could grapple with.

        Keith, this sounds like an excellent context to wrap up our conversation at the meeting. I placed you last on the agenda so maybe you can kick off that discussion with the remaining time?

      • axg251 9:00 am on September 8, 2011 Permalink | Log in to Reply

        An area I’m really interested in seeing us discuss along with this topic, Keith, relates to the differences and similarities from the learner perspective of participating in online (or blended/hybrid) courses as a resident student and participating in online courses as a truly distance adult learner. I think the line is increasingly blurred but I also think it’s important that we explore, again from the learner perspective, possible similarities and differences.

      • Wayne 9:55 am on October 3, 2011 Permalink | Log in to Reply

        A conversation about design processes and the tools used to implement will be very helpful. It would be great to identify where we can invest local resources in areas that 1) can be adopted and built upon by other departments and 2) identify common challenges to be considered for university wide solutions. I’m looking forward to participating in the group and hopefully contributing to the task-force.

        • Cole Camplese 11:00 am on October 3, 2011 Permalink

          Couldn’t agree more! Looking forward to the discussion … please make sure you press us to think of all of PSU!

      We’re having a staff meeting next week and I’m thinking about doing something similar (after talking to you about it). We’ve been thinking so hard about “flipping the classroom”, it might be time to take that approach to our meetings.

      I like your idea for the new design as well. I’m looking forward to the first meeting.

      Cole,
      I read your email and thought it might be Christmas already. I am 100% on board with this. If there is anything or anyway that I can help, please let me know.

      Thank you!

      Tess
