Webconferences

From WikiEducator

Jump to: navigation, search

This is a page for people to list and promote web conferencing in Wikieducator. A web conference is a meeting online, usually through voice applications (Think telephone conference, but through the Internet). We encourage anyone to propose speakers and discussion topics. Even more we encourage people to go ahead and organise a webconference and promote it here. Hopefully we will sustain a continuous webconference on just about anything going on in Wikieducator, from specific page developments, subject areas, and key speakers on just about any topic of interest.

So we can build a record and provide access for people who come late or miss the actual webconference, we ask that you make the effort to record your meeting and post a link to the recording here. We recommend uploading audio files to http://archive.org

Dr Sally Baddock, University of Otago, Dunedin will be talking about her international renowned research into bedsharing. Sally says "We videoed infants and their parents while they bedshared, or slept in a cot overnight in their own homes. We also monitored infant physiology and matched this with the video data to gain a picture of the potential risks and benefits encountered during bedsharing compared to cot sleeping. The results of this study will be presented."

Reflecting on the Wiley Wiki model

June 24, 2008: It seemed timely that a few of us who have tried the Wiley Wiki model for running online courses came together and talked about our experiences. In this recording, (Other formats) Teemu Leinonen, Bronwyn Hegarty and Leigh Blackall talk about their various thoughts on the method of running online courses with a MediaWiki (pioneered by Dave Wiley) with insight and ideas sprouting along the way. See the following links for the examples we talk about. Sorry that Dave Wiley himself could not be there, but we hope the recording will put him in the picture, as well as offer George Siemens and Stephen Downes some food for thought as they embark on their mega course using something like the model.

George Siemens - Curatorial Teaching

George Siemens gave a 15 minute talk on his concept of curatorial teaching. It is a very thought provoking idea and generated quite a lot of good discussion afterwards. (Originally recorded for the Facilitating online communities course, published on the course blog)

Derek Chirnside - Community in courses

Derek Chirnside gave a bang on 10 minute talk on his concept for developing a sense of community in courses. It stimulated quite a bit of discussion around the open and closed course debate. (Originally recorded for the Facilitating online communities course, published on the course blog)

Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach - The Art of Building Virtual Communities

Early on in this course, many of us were enthusiastic for Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach' s article The Art of Building Virtual Communities. The tips in that article have received wide acclaim in the comments and other people's blogging.

We were lucky to have Sheryl join us with a 10 minute lecture and then discussion on Tuesday 4 September 12:00 Noon Auckland time, or for Sheryl, that's Monday, 3 September 2007 at 8:00 p.m New York time.

Nancy White - looking over our shoulders

This week's guest lecture was a biggy. We were very lucky to have the famous Nancy White talk with us from the lovely Seattle USA on Tuesday 12noon NZST.

Nancy suggested that we watch this animation about Peer Assist before we met. (After you click play, the movie will have to load a little before it starts playing. If you are on dial up, right click and save the movie file to your computer).

It was a very inspiring and engaging talk and Nancy got it in at under 15minutes! That's the best so far :) Here are the recordings:

  1. MP3 audio of Nancy's talk - 2.7meg / 15min
  2. MP3 audio of discussion after the talk - 6.3meg / 35min
  3. Elluminate recording - 1hr, 35min (no password needed, includes discussion about course)
  4. Slides on slideshare

Konrad Glogowski - Classrooms as Third Places

Konrad Glogowski (that's him on the right) joined us for the 2nd in a series of 10 minute lectures relating to the facilitation of online learning communities. In this recording Konrad talks about developing a sense of community and individual presence before attempting formal learning. Konrad talks to his middle school teaching experiences but his research and insight is very applicable across many efforts to develop an online learning community.
