Student Experiences In CCK08View SlideShare presentation or Upload your own. (tags: cck08 open)The above slides are to be used during a brief use case being presented tomorrow to the Open Education Workshop 2008 at Macquarie University.The talk covers an overview of “Connectivism and Connective Knowledge“, my experiences as a student of the course and a quick discussion of some of the tools used by the other students.Unfortunately with only 5 minutes allotted for the entire talk I can’t go into much detail. We have also been told to limit our visuals to under 3 slides (as you can see I broke the rules there) - so I’ve had to be tactical about what was included. Given the bulk of the workshop seems to reflect an interest in more technological aspects, and those of transparency and of course openness - I’ve opted to outline the platforms I used to engage in the course, with the nature of the engagement discussed orally. As much as I want to elaborate on the fact the participatory models are heavily influenced and informed by the subject matter being explored - and what the key themes and topics were - I suspect I will only be able to reference them in passing. Hopefully there will be opportunities to discuss this more at-length later in the day, and particularly after the event has drawn to a close.I’ll be posting a reflection here shortly that elaborates on my experiences and thoughts about CCK08 in greater detail. It’s been a fantastic experience and I want to ensure it receives the attention it deserves.
As mentioned several weeks ago, I gave a short somewhat informal presentation regarding the CCK08 student experience at the Open Education Workshop on November 21st. The event was held at Macquarie University and had a nice diverse turn-out of attendees from across many different levels of education - including primary, secondary, tertiary, and even government.
I’ve just received word that the recordings of the event have been released and are now available for download via the Australian Service for Knowledge of Open Source Software (ASK-OSS) website, who were largely responsible for organising and facilitating the event.
For the record I’m including my slides and the MP3 of my presentation below. Alas with only 6 minutes to devote to the talk I was hard pressed to cover as much as I would have liked to, but I’m hopeful that I presented a fairly holistic picture of the student experience:
