Experiencing eLearning

In the US, you may have seen Cisco’s commercials with Ellen Page where she visits a classroom that is taking a “field trip&# to China. We decided to mute, similar to what we would do with a big group in a web conferencing tool like WebEx or Elluminate. Should we mute ourselves when we’re not presenting?

Good point to make; I think it’s easy to look at something big like Flat Classroom and feel overwhelmed if you think you need to do all that in the first year. Connect = Elluminate.

Recently I have been considering the changing role of teachers who are adopting technology to extend the walls of the classroom. These are a new breed of teachers who do not necessarily accept that the classroom is contained within four walls.

I have also presented recently at one of Steve Hargardon's live Elluminate global webinars, and have to say that the experience was very similar to the MOOC. I actually presented my MOOC talk from a classroom in the Cork Institute of Technology in Ireland.

Way back in Ten Predictions for eLearning 2008 , I predicted Virtual Classroom Tools - Meeting Tool + Second Life Lite A medium size Virtual Classroom / Meeting Tool will announce features in 2008 that are not 3D immersive, but that are more like Mii characters in a 2.5D Because it makes us feel more connected to the experience?

For now, enterprise users of Moodlerooms and NetSpot can rest easy knowing that Blackboard plans on letting them run as they are now vs. swallowing them whole as they did with Elluminate, the virtual classroom. Enterprise users of Blackboard might look forward to more options. That’s a good thing.

Get a license to Webex, Elluminate or something similar (perhaps even a free web conferencing tool like DimDim) to provide the capability to run live online sessions. Train up as many of the training team as possible in content design and development, setting up courses in Moodle and facilitating in a virtual classroom.

It wouldn’t be hard for WebEx, Adobe, Centra, Elluminate Blackboard, or their peers to provide a default conferencing environment that mirrors best practices for interactive meetings instead of mimicking what went on in yesteryear’s boring one-way workshops and classrooms.

Every classroom has one - the result of determined fund raising within the community. The evening Elluminate session for the PLE/PLN online symposium , organised by Stephen Downes, George Siemens and Rita Kop, was a different affair entirely. It took place at the Atlantis base in Cork Institute of Technology.

In the post-session discussion, I wrote “Asking Elluminate to do what we wanted was akin to inviting 70 people into a classroom for 30, gagging the teacher, using spray paint instead of chalk on the board.&# .&# Toward the end, “going to go get bandages, pain killers.&# Then “what do you want?&#

Firewalls and restrictive corporate environments caused us considerable grief: Yahoo Groups were restricted in some corporate environments, Elluminate did not work through several firewalls, we had to switch to WebEx and that really goofed up the start of the course; Yahoo Toolbar (for MyWeb ) couldn't be installed on locked desktops.

Even with all of the buzz surrounding informal learning, Chief Learning Officer Magazine reports that 41% of learning executives indicated they continue to use classroom-based instructor-led training as the primary learning delivery method. I think a series of presentation/discussions would be more effective. Learn more about Dawn here.
