17:24
hi all

hot here in Chicago -- I haven't been sleeping well either but I think it has to do with not getting out except to walk the dog

hi :))

19:31
one of the best bloggers in edtech, is Martin

19:42
here’s the schedule for Martin’s keynote: https://onlinelearningconsortium.org/attend-2020/innovate/martin-weller-keynote/

21:27
(and i just now noticed he mentioned me in his latest post hehe)

21:52
i have a question for Martin whe n there is time

23:55
if folks have questions for Martin, feel free to put them in chat here and we’ll try to answer

24:45
oooh love the "weak point" comment!! tweeting this out

24:47
here’s the cover remix I made a while back: https://remixer.visualthinkery.com/a/xrayspecs/uzgKvVoY5rtxJsfeJW0V

25:49
Hello everyone. I am the Director of Distance Learning at Columbus Technical College in Columbus, GA.

26:17
Is there no space for exams in fields like accounting or anatomy and physiology? Those aren’t my fields, and I don’t give any proctored exams, but in working with programs like these, they seem annoyed at people outside of their field telling them what their assessment should be...

26:41
Not only final projects but a more robust learning experience can can consist of many individualized smaller projects.

26:44
yes exactly... if you interact often you know their voice and their work

27:01
yes @Debra

27:22
thank u!

27:24
yes

27:52
Thanks @Maha

28:41
like with accounting ... u can do an exam with DIFFERENT figures each person

28:44
@Matt I have the same experience for Engineers. Professors want to see the formulas and work on the exam.

28:45
Thanks for the response. Good way to think about having that conversation with them.

28:46
so they can't cheat that

29:27
my experience is more upper level sciences can tolerate open book or take home exams... but not first years

30:05
Other than "rediscovering" online learning periodically, what other lessons do we keep relearning or rediscovering from the history of edtech?

30:10
A large question bank, randomly presented and frequent quizzing also works. Questions can be written to build on previous knowledge. Also we write small projects that build on content from previous weeks weeks c

30:26
i like Stephanie's Q

30:40
A paradigm shift for higher education institutions that still needs in some ways to occur is a move away from “digitizing” the traditional classroom approach (.pdf versions of textbooks, 1 hours taped lectures, etc.) - have you seen a technology in particular in the last 25 years that has allowed us to move into a new paradigm for more student-centric, interactive, dynamic opportunities in this visual 21st century classroom?

30:43
Yay! I can't wait!

30:44
nice @Debra. what do you teach?

31:11
*virtual (not visual)

31:36
lol re AI.... not speaking to educators lol

31:52
Yes first year faculty in STEM seem to value basic knowledge.

32:10
If I can answer my own question, one thing I think comes up again and again is programmed instruction. Started with special textbooks, Skinner machines, now adaptive learning

33:36
if anyone wants to ask a voice question, raise your hand

35:06
Thank you Martin.

35:12
@Maha —I teach physics, chemistry, biology, psychology

35:20

35:32
Talking about wikis. I’ve seen cases of educators setting an assessment where students edit and ‘correct’ wikipedia articles.

35:37
i mean annotation existed before Hypothes.is but they were clunky. Hypothes.is has a superior UI I think

35:58
yessss i love Wikipedia editing as an assignment

36:04
@Carl, yeah there's a partnership with Wikipedia. I wish we could get that approved at my institution

36:24
Online learning arguably allows a more “choose your own adventure” approach vs a linear approach to achieving success for the same learning objectives for the collective.

36:37
we just got Hypothes.is, I'm super excited for that this fall!

37:24
That’s great Bethany. What institution are you at?

37:34
SJSU

37:41
San Jose State University, CA

37:42
ah yes! welcome

38:01
@Bethany, me too. Wikipedia is seen as so ‘evil’ that we can’t even constructively use it.

38:23
@Carl -that's so outdate thinking!

39:24
Tricky edtech…maybe that’s a category

39:43
more questions for Martin from you all?

39:51
I think the Trickster is a useful metaphor for us!

39:55
Are there any experiments that show humans preferring to work with AI over working with a human?

40:23
That’s a great Q David. Would you like to unmute and ask it in the next pause?

40:27
Yes, STEM needs basic foundational knowledge, a blend of facts and language, logic and critical thinking skills

41:19
Someone I know somewhere has created a virtual public speaking simulation with AI bots in audience giving reactions.

41:38
That's interesting. Wonder how we could apply that to education.

42:06
This is kind of like AI pets in Japan

42:12
little robot pets.

42:15
If proctors were AI would humans feel safer taking a test? Hmmm.

42:22
lol

43:03
If I were an AI bot, I wouldn't tell you.

43:19
Thank you Martin!

43:29
anyone remember that Twitter incident?! Where they had to take the bot down because it became a racist horrible nightmare?!

43:44
yessss i remember that one Bethany

43:58
Martin u can play GOOD COP

44:02
i played bad cop hehe

44:12
Thank you!

44:26
@Bethany I remember that Twitter incident

44:27
@Bethany Yes! It "learned" from what it read...unfortunately.

44:29
analogue is still good

44:31
well some ppl said grades ... a few said desks actually

45:19
lol

45:23
actors too!!!

45:29
lol
