1.) The Role of AI in Personalized Learning, Lesson Planning & Teaching

Week 3 Reflection: Foundations of Online & Open Ed: Terminology, Theories, & Inclusive Practices

Week 2 Reflection: Terminology, Theories, & Inclusive Practices

Week 1 Reflection: Data Privacy, Consent, and Open Copyright

This week I explored topics and resources around Data Privacy, Consent, and Open Copyright. By dissecting these I gained some new and necessary insights.

EDCI 335 Blog #4 Designing For Interaction

When I think of interaction in the realm of education and learning I picture meaningful hands-on, communicative and collaborative work.

While this is just as […]

Inquiry-Based Learning & Constructivism My group has decided to focus on constructivism as a base for our blueprint and learning resource as it best aligns with our goals for designing a meaningful, student centred learning resource. This theory emphasizes that learners actively construct meaning based on prior knowledge and new experiences. In this blog however […]
