OPERATIONALIZING CONNECTIVIST PRINCIPLES IN ONLINE TERTIARY COURSE DESIGN Christine Armatas, Christine
Spratt, and Andrew Vincent In this paper
we discuss the design of a fully online course – the Bachelor of
Enterprise Learning – expected to be offered for the first time in
2014. We describe how connectivist principles guided design of
active, student-centered learning activities for this degree that
incorporate technology as both a source of information and a tool.
Examples illustrate how these principles can be put into practice in
developing learning activities, assessment tasks and whole subjects.
We also discuss the value of using a framework such as this for
providing consistency in subject design while still leaving scope
for innovative and effective pedagogy. |
