Pathways to Learning: Open Collaboration to Support the Online Pivot Robert Farrow
This presentation reports results of a recent open education research collaboration between The African Council for Distance Education and The Open University (UK). Pathways to Learning: new approaches in higher education (OpenLearn, 2020a) hosted two free professional development programmes for university lecturers, instructional designers, professional staff, and managers who share responsibility for providing quality distance and online learning.
• A Teacher Educator programme, Skills for 21st Century Learning and Teaching (OpenLearn, 2020b)
• A Tertiary Educator programme, Take Your Teaching Online (OpenLearn, 2020c)
The courses ran over six weeks between 13th July and 20th August, 2020, and was contextualized by a rapid rollout of online learning during the Coronavirus pandemic. The programmes combined a course of study using OER materials with supplementary activities including a total of 12 webinars and interactive events alongside use of new platforms created by The Open University’s Institute of Educational Technology: nQuire (Herodotou et al., 2018) and Our Journey (Coughlan et al., 2019).
Key findings:
• The pandemic led to a substantial shift in teaching across Africa and a requirement to better understand and gain experience of online learning. Change is likely to persist post-pandemic, although infrastructure and cultural barriers are reported.
• The project surveys, interviews and the data generated through interactions that occurred in the programmes explores challenges and opportunities for online and blended learning across the African continent and globally.
• The evaluation data provides evidence that the programmes led to important understanding of course design and confidence in online facilitation for a large majority of those who took part in them.
• There is evidence that the programmes built confidence, particularly through the experiences of these educators themselves learning online with well-designed materials, and engaging with platforms and experts.
• There is evidence that each of the elements and activities were appreciated by some learners. The open courses were seen as most useful alongside some webinars. Community events and forums added substantial value to these.
• The flexibility offered in the programmes led to different behaviours. Many aimed to complete all the available activities despite time pressures and other barriers. Some were unable to attend live events so recordings were appreciated.
• Given the courses were free to join and many educators faced barriers and pressures, retention figures were very positive with around 66% of those who took part in the first week completing the rest of these programmes.
• Assessment, Open Educational Resources (OER), and understanding of technologies that can be used for online learning and learning design were areas that learners reported as being particularly valuable.

2. TU Delft aims to have a distance and online education program operational within 4 years based on their OpenCourseWare content. They have selected 3 pilot programs in engineering fields.
3. TU Delft views open education as an opportunity to improve learning through more flexible and modular content while also limiting costs. Their goal is to transition more fully from their residential program to incorporating open education.
California Community College Faculty Motivation and Reflection on Open Textbo...Una Daly
Interviews were conducted with twelve faculty members at community colleges in California who adopted open textbooks in their teaching practice for one academic term or longer. The interviews queried faculty on motivation to undertake the adoption, pedagogical considerations, student savings and feedback, and support from other campus stakeholders.
Faculty were asked how their teaching and student learning was affected as a result of adopting an open textbook in their course. Specifically they were asked if they were collaborating more with other faculty members and whether they were now using a wider range of instructional materials in their courses. With regards to student learning, they were asked if they believed that student learning had improved or whether student retention had improved as a result of the adoption of an open and free textbook. Any unanticipated outcomes that had resulted from the adoption either in their own practice or with students was also queried.
In addition to the faculty and students, other stakeholders on campus are often involved in the decision and process to adopt an open textbook. College initiatives or pilot programs to increase access and equity were sometimes the instigators for making the change and other times it was strictly a faculty decision. Library, instructional design, and bookstore staff were other stakeholders who played roles in the adoption process.
Attend this presentation to better understand the motivations of college faculty who adopt open textbooks and how it affected their teaching practice. Hear about the challenges they encountered and any unexpected outcomes. Learn what students had to say about using open textbooks in the classroom and how it affected their learning and ability to be successful.
This document summarizes a presentation on challenges and opportunities related to technology in learning given at the UWS Learning and Teaching Conference. The presentation discussed how the diversity of today's students requires reimagining learning approaches away from passive, didactic styles to more active, collaborative and networked approaches. Challenges mentioned include the need for flexible scheduling and more formative feedback. The flipped classroom model was proposed as an approach to flex teaching by moving direct instruction outside of class and using class time for active learning. Creating video content for the flipped classroom using tools like Camtasia was discussed as a way to develop content once and use it for many students.
This document outlines the DigiTeL Pro project, which aims to provide professional development for digital teaching and learning across Europe. The objectives are to 1) explore educational needs within and after the COVID era, 2) exchange expertise on hybrid, blended, and online learning, and 3) design and deliver continuing education courses to support digital curriculum development. Several intellectual outputs are described, including developing courses on synchronous hybrid education, blended education, and online/distance education. The courses will be designed based on research and best practices to reinforce universities' ability to provide high-quality digital education.

Bringing together internal and external students on Blackboard - Brett Fyfiel...Blackboard APAC
With the recent redevelopment of postgraduate courses in project management for the School of Civil Engineering and the Built Environment, new challenges were faced to make units more inclusive of a variety of enrolment preferences. The short term ambitions for the courses included developing units that are delivered both facetoface, and entirely online and have the potential to be scaled to meet the growing demand for continuing professional education. To ensure that students could join either facetoface or online offerings of the same units, the implementation team brought internal and external cohorts together on the same unit sites on Blackboard. The units are currently under evaluation but some early learnings may provide insight into new approaches to blended learning, and how these approaches have facilitated new ways of teaching and learning through tentative academic culture change.

Deze toolkit biedt praktische, behapbare handvatten voor blended learning. Hij is gebaseerd op literatuur en ervaringen en volgt het onderwijsontwerpmodel ADDIE. Er zitten verschillende ondersteunende materialen in, voor iedere stap van het ontwerpproces. De materialen samen kunnen gebruikt worden voor het opzetten van een volledige course. De materialen kunnen ook afzonderlijk van elkaar gebruikt worden (bijvoorbeeld voor het ontwikkelen van een enkel webinar). Tijdens deze sessie hoor je onze ervaringen.

3. Purposes of EMBED
• Track BL practices, conditions, strategies and policies in a
systematic manner
• Assess the degree of maturity of BL in HEIs
• Provide a framework for enabling optimization or change
4.
5. Working towards a maturity model
1. Literature study
2. Repository of BL cases (mainly BL courses), interviews with
lecturers, course designers and policy makers
3. Interviews BL experts, outside the EMBED project (Delphi study)
o Framing blended learning, teaching and education
o Define & refine dimensions and criteria of the MM
o Describe maturity levels
4. Follow-up: revision/validation, multiplier events, MOOC
6. 1. Blended learning: learning as a result of a deliberate, integrated
combination of online and face-to-face learning activities.
2. Blended teaching: designing and facilitating blended learning
activities.
3. Blended education: the formal context of BL (practices) that is
determined by policies and conditions with regard to the organization
and support of blended learning.
Definitions in the EMBED project
7. VALUE OF EVIDENCE, EXPERIENCE AND Continuous Quality Improvement
(CQI)
- When backed up by research and/or practical evidence a course or
program design is reinforced.
- The extent to which CQI processes and products are embedded in a
course or program, determines the maturity level of a BL approach.
- These allow course instructors/designers to continuously improve BL
courses in an iterative manner
ACTION LEVEL AND KEY ACTORS
- Three action levels : the micro, meso and macro level.
- Main actors are: instructor or instructional designer & students (micro),
teams or bodies for decision making a.o. program coordinators and heads of
teaching and learning centers (meso)
MATURITY concept relates to the degree of formality and optimization of
the design, evidence-based decision making, documentation and
continuous quality improvement
Assumptions
8. 1. BL course design process planning and
design of a course structure
2. BL community and instructor presence
extent and types of individual and group
interactions during BL activities, focused on
LC building
3. Variety of BL materials in order to facilitate
content – communication – construction
learnig activities
4. Personalization and learner control extent
to which learners are able to modify or
control particular features of the BLE to
their individual needs
5. Re-usability, sharing and openness of BL
course degree to which a BL course is
shared and/or can be (re-)used
6. Studiability balance between study load,
learner experiences and achievement of
educational objectives

11. I think the fundamental reason [to start with BL] is to give more meaning to your
classes. That is one reason to start BL. Another thing is that if you start BL,
you need to think about your design. Filling 2 hours in a [conventional] lecture for
a group of students is easy.
Creating a BL design requires thinking: why, for whom, added value?

15. BL PRACTICES IN CONTEXT
Multiple cases @ KU Leuven and TU Delft
16. COURSE DESIGN
• Lecturer’s aims: freeing up lecturing time to apply theory and support
problem-solving in the classroom, ‘trying something new’, internationally
local, FtC, integration of MOOCs into a BL approach
• In few instances: evidence or experience inform BL course design
• But there is ‘self-reflection on alternatives in order to optimize learning
outcomes’
VARIETY OF BL MATERIALS
• Limited number
• Media and technology selection > availability

put together their own set of notes and combine things, it ended at being
basically only one student really contributing “
Online communication tools such as forums have limited to no success.
Students do not use them (or very limited)
18. BLENDED EDUCATION CONTEXT – Support
SUPPORT AND INCENTIVES
(THAT WORK)
• Design of courses, evaluation,
redesign including planning
• Development of online
materials, e.g. videos
• Funding from various sources,
e.g. from faculty
• Extra staff, e.g. teaching
assistants
• Follow-up, e.g. sharing
experiences with colleagues
• Technical, either centralized or
faculty-based help desks
• Project-oriented approach
within a design team (>< ’find
your way’)
19. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that if you make the material crisp and clear, as
nice as you can, that all your problems are gone. Be very sensitive of whether the
material is not too good, so that your students have the impression that they
understand that, they did understand the story but they don’t understand the
concept.
I think it's worthwhile doing so. But they have to be aware that it will cost time. It
will not save you time. It will probably increase the efficiency of the course, but it
will not save you time as a lecturer.
Don’t make everything blended … And so the good things from the past, the good
old lectures : keep them ! And next to this, do things with a team ! A team of 2 or 3
is enough. And then you have to go for it, mind the details, the quality of audio
and video, appointments with students, a study guide. Choose your pet project
and go for quality and detail.

25. TU DELFT Strategy
SPEARPOINTS BL explicitly mentioned: ”Innovation in teaching and
learning through a blend of online-and on-campus education” (p.14)
Related: OER, incentives for educational innovation, operational
excellence, campus infrastructure
CULTURE OF INNOVATION IN TEACHING & LEARNING
• experimentation with and development of different types of
education, including BL courses and programs
• evidence-based university education
26. A strategy to stimulate the use of BL, as part of a policy to enhance
study success, in the bachelor programs (2012-2013)
• Directors of education & the executive board
• As part of an agreement with government to increase study
success
• Focus on review of curricula, active learning, including BL
Since 2013: An ‘early adopter strategy’ for online learning
• The executive board
• Focus on MOOCs , open courseware, also BL
BL strategy until 2018
• Top-down and bottom-up approach
TU DELFT Strategy
27. KU LEUVEN Strategy
SPEARPOINTS BL mentioned as part of technology-supported education or multicampus education:
“For some learning goals, the best working method is the traditional lecture (…) Other learning
goals benefit from a combination of face-to-face education and e-learning.” (p.32)
“(…) multilocation learning calls for a better coordination between e-learning and face-to-face
education.” (p.31)
• BL is not explicitly mentioned, but, recently:
• A new educational strategy : focus on online assessment, a better network infrastructure ,
learning analytics, virtual reality, Micromasters and Moocs
• Hiring educational technologists
• The KU Leuven Learning Lab:
• Increased collaboration between the Educational Development Unit collaboration
with the technological Support Unit
• A more recent Educational and Technological support, structure and strategy
towards BL course designers
• Since 2015: targeted call to kick start MOOCs
• MOOC team in place to offer support for design and development
• Since 2018: targeted call for IDL project (innovative digital learning)
• Focus on Assessment & feedback
• 10 projects selected
28. 1. Maturity at strategical level from consolidated to systemic
implementation
o formal advocacy by university administrators and
departments
o strategic facilitation of wide-spread implementation
2. Maturity at the structural level systemic implementation
o robust structures involving academic unit leaders for strategic
decision making
o institution-driven evaluations addressing BL outcomes
3. Maturity at the support level systemic Implementation
o well established technological support to address BL/BT
needs
o robust BL course development process, systematic promotion
and dissemination
o well established faculty incentive structure for continuous
training and implementation
TU DELFT – Preliminary analysis
29. 1. Maturity at strategical level from consolidated to systemic implementation
o “Administrators identify purposes to motivate institutional adoption of
BL”
o “Tentative policies adopted and communicated to stakeholders, policies
revised as needed”
o But: “Individual faculty members implementing BL” (So at the moment:
bottom-up initiatives – individual passionate teachers
2. Maturity at the structural level consolidated implementation
o “Emerging structures primarily to regulate and approve BL courses”
o “Efforts to designate BL courses in registration/catalog System”
o ” “Not yet formal evaluations in place addressing BL learning outcomes”
3. Maturity at the support level from consolidated to systemic implementation
o “established technological and educational support to address BL/online
needs of all stakeholders”
o But:
o “Exploration of faculty incentive structure for faculty training and course development”
o “Experimentation and building of a formal course development process”

Editor's Notes
Factsheet
The 'European Maturity model for Blended Education' or EMBED project aims at:
developing and validating a monitor for mapping blended learning practices, institutional strategies and governmental policies for blended learning across Europe, including criteria to assess their degree of maturity;
empowering European HEIs in order to achieve up-scaled quality BL programs and courses by means of professional development activities and community building across institutional frontiers;
The project partners embrace a multilevel framework in order to tackle conceptual and implementation issues at the course level (micro), at the strategic level (meso) and with the intent to give relevant input to governmental policy (macro). Figure 1 depicts the different phases of the EMBED project:
BL Strategy: issues regarding the overall design of BL (eg, definition and policies, forms of advocacy, degree of implementation, purposes for implementation)
BL Structure: issues relating to the technological, pedagogical and administrative framework facilitating the BL environment (e.g., governance, BL models, scheduling and evaluation).
BL Support: issues relating to the manner in which an institution facilitates faculty implementation and maintenance of its BL design (eg, technical support, pedagogical support and faculty incentives).
Governance = The way in which the vision and policies are translated to rules, regulations and actions that facilitate blended education
- Surprising: Student generated content !, Reflective journals , websites, blogs
- Surpising labs practicum (low frequency)
- Execises / problem solving : inline met interviews: zeker in TU delft, bijna altijd het motief om met BL te beginnen

strategic optimization: Aligning different programs, units, even more focus on evaluating approaches
The difference between consolidated and systemic mainly has to do with the evaluation of quality according to well established criteria , so quality assurance
The difference between ad hoc and consolidated has to do with common practice vs experimentation
Consolidation = institution wide adoption with policies and regulations
