Louis' Notes

Day 1

  • Course Introduction Video (YouTube link)
  • Course Guide 2nd run, 27-31 July 2020 (pdf)
    • "WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT THIS COURSE? The course gives you a direct or firsthand experience of remote learning from the learner’s point of view (since you are the learners in this course and you will not have face-to-face meetings with the course team or instructors in a physical classroom). This should help you to appreciate the challenges of learning remotely and, armed with this knowledge, plan how to enable all of your students to learn your course effectively on their own (i.e. without you in the room with them)."
    • "The course uses a resource-based learning approach, where (1) a set of learning resources is provided for each topic and (2) there is a learning activity where the concepts and principles learned from studying these learning resources are applied."
    • "For each topic there is a study guide that you are advised to read first as it sets out the (1) target learning outcomes for that topic, (2) the key concepts or ideas that tie the given learning resources together, and (3) the rationale for the learning activity. The output for each learning activity is a component of the course pack for the course that you are designing for remote delivery."
