Last Thursday I have given an first reaction on five days on Bergen. I already told that I Thursday started to teach.Now afew days later I react to the questions Anne Karin mentioned. Tree good things about the course:
* The main thing for me is to learn to translate methods of teaching in regular way to internet teaching and vice versa. What can I use in Vir class and in what way instruments/ tools are usefull in daily life. OK internet is also daily life....
* It's very important to realise that I want that students will behave like active students instead of consumers.
* Again I wake up and think more about the usability of (the tool) reflection. I realise more and more that reflection is a good instrument when the student is on his own. The student has to take his reponsibility for the learning process.
* At the end of the course I realize that I am a student!
* So I realise and experienced where students go through when starting this way of learning.
When I'm on course I give attention to what's happening with them. I think that it will help them to get further and do the things they want to inquire. (Be friendly, how can I help)
About the course:
I think the course is more technical than ment to be. How to use the tools makes me scared about teaching. I realize that I haven't had a good thoughtfull thinking about this subject in preparing this course
Unless that Anne Karin as a teacher and myself as a student do not agree about it. I think that being an E student it must a an condition that student need to know al lot more about computertools.
About the next weeks:
-The main thing that I will try is getting pleasure back and getting curious about E learning. It will help me that i.m gonna search on Virr class en try to practice a little bit with all the tools placed at campus week. I assume that that will help.
- I'm also gonna search on internet about social participation.
- I'ts gonna be a busy time. I'm gonna negotiate with my manager about hours and other ways to support me to get the final day for delivering. And when i don't make it in time. There is a second chance! I must make time to relax.
- At this moment its important for me that I make a start with a reasonable plannning. At this moment I lost overvieuw.
I also made an MSN Account; mark.gerthvanwijk@hotmail.com
Later on I replace an other photograph. My wife and daughter are on a holidaytrip to Drente ( where the dutch moor is (also) beautiful). They have token the fotocamera with them.
For now on.

Thanks Mark for this; it is good of you to share your thoughts about the course and the Campus week with us! I understand that you need some time more on your own, to get an overview over the different tools; -- and you should of course have this.
ReplyDeleteI do sincerely hope that you soon find back “the pleasure of teaching!; --and if there are anything you need me to help you with, please just tell me!
And as I said, it is helpful for us that you write this in your blog. We will take all your 3 students experiences into consideration when we finish the pilot version of the e-pedagogy course!
