First reflective activity in H880.
(It's reflexive really
)
‘How has my understanding of technology-enhanced learning changed during Week 1?’
Hmmm
, I think I prob had a fairly advanced understanding already.
Begin by making ‘What happened’ notes, using the following questions to help you.
What did you do this week that had a bearing on your understanding of TEL? Include any salient feelings, thoughts, events or features.
- Watched the Nelson video. He was both optimistic and wanting to rein in over-enthusiasm about the potential of technology.
Did your understanding of TEL change or deepen, or did your week’s study reinforce your previous ideas?
Now make ‘So what?’ notes, using these questions to help you.
- Which were the important moments that changed, deepened or reinforced your understanding?
- Chatting with fellow students
- Why did they have this effect?
- Made me think through my ideas and theirs. Their ideas helped inform and writing mine out helped clarify my thinking.
- What made them so important?
- Well, they weren't that important

Finally, make ‘What next?’ notes, using this question to help you.
How will your understanding of TEL influence your practice or your studies?
I shall write up my account of teaching referencing
