This document discusses different types of personal documentation such as logs, diaries, and journals. It provides details on what each type entails:
- Logs focus on factual information and are used to record objective occurrences and data. Diaries are more personal and interpretive, including one's thoughts and feelings about events.
- Journals can include elements of both logs and diaries by combining objective and subjective dimensions. Journal writers engage in dialogue to analyze experiences from multiple perspectives over time.
- Keeping a journal regularly through reflective writing can provide benefits like increased self-awareness, understanding of one's behaviors and roles, and a holistic view of experiences and circumstances over time. It facilitates reflection on life events and

This document discusses different types of personal documentation: logs, diaries, and journals. Logs focus on factual information and objective recordings of events. Diaries are more personal and interpretive, focusing on thoughts and feelings about experiences. Journals combine elements of both logs and diaries by objectively documenting experiences while also reflecting on subjective interpretations and allowing for dialogue between objective and subjective views over time. Keeping a research journal documents ideas, evidence, and analytical notes throughout a project to aid in formative and summative analysis.

The document discusses the increasing role of digital technologies and online media in India. It notes that India ranked 83rd in networked readiness in 2014. Several graphics show statistics on India's growing internet and mobile phone usage. The rapid growth of available information online is discussed, including the impact of big data and learning analytics. The document also outlines seven major communications revolutions, including the printing press, radio, television, computers, internet, and mobile phones. It emphasizes that digital literacy skills are changing to adapt to new forms of online communication and conversation.
Professional Development Programme on OER-based e-learningPat Toh
?
Open Educational Resources have emerged as one of the most innovative teaching and learning tools as well as a cost-effective mechanism to improve the quality of educational offerings by optimising the use of available resources. While OER can be used by any student to learn on his/her own, universities (especially Open Universities) that depend on printed distance learning materials can now use the OERs to offer their courses and programmes and thereby reduce the development time of courses and programmes, and also reduce the cost of launching new programmes. However, not many institutions are in a position to actually develop OERs that can be used effectively for teaching and learning in the digital environment.
The Commonwealth Educational Media Centre for Asia (CEMCA), realising the need for professional development of teachers, has developed this professional development programme on OER-based eLearning to promote the use of OER in educational institutions.
The programme has been developed as part of the institutional capacity building for OER-based eLearning at Wawasan Open University (WOU), Penang. Faculty members of WOU and several other institutions in Asia have contributed to the development of the contents. The modules are learning outcomes of the participants in three workshops supported by CEMCA.
Case studies on OER based e-learning-CEMCA, 2014Pat Toh
?
This document provides a summary of a case study on the Open University of Sri Lanka's efforts to integrate open educational resources into one of its teacher education courses. The Open University of Sri Lanka established its Faculty of Education in 2003 to offer professional development programs for teachers and educators. This case study focuses on how the faculty built capacity among its academic staff to incorporate OER into its Master of Arts in Teacher Education program, specifically a course called "Teacher Educator as an Educational Technologist".

Quality Assurance Standards for e-ASEM OER Open and Distance Learning
Tae Rim Lee, Insung Jung
This document summarizes the validation of quality assurance criteria for open educational resources (OER) using the TIPS framework. It conducted three waves of surveys with OER experts, groups, and teachers to evaluate 65 criteria. Using content validity ratio analysis, it validated 38 criteria with an overall content validity index over 0.80, indicating the criteria are essential for evaluating OER quality. The validation process and results provide a framework for creating and evaluating high quality OER.

This document discusses experiences with developing and delivering open educational resource (OER)-based courses and massive open online courses (MOOCs) at Wawasan Open University. It outlines the process of developing OER course materials, delivering the courses, revising materials based on feedback, and designing OER-based MOOCs. Recommendations are provided to increase openness of OER through greater reuse, revision, remixing and redistribution of materials.

OER: Disruptive Innovative Solution to the Challenges of Education
M M Pant, Madhulika Kaushik, Sanjay Jasola, Ramesh C Sharma
This document discusses introducing information and communication technology (ICT) into an open and distance learning program at the University of Mumbai. It outlines a pilot study from 2011-2012 where ICT was offered as an optional course for a Master of Arts in Education program. Over 200 students opted to take the ICT course. The paper proposes using peer tutoring and learning designs like discovery, ideation, experimentation, and evaluation to teach ICT skills through a case study approach. The goal is to help teachers gain practical ICT knowledge since the subject is now compulsory in Indian schools.
This document discusses heutagogy, standards-based open educational resources (OER), and the Learnival social learning environment. Heutagogy focuses on self-determined learning and learner autonomy. Completion rates for massive open online courses are typically low due to lack of motivation and perseverance from learners. Learnival is presented as a platform to help learners become more autonomous through learning how to read effectively, remember information, and perform well on assessments. It also allows sharing of standards-based OER content through features like Google Hangouts and by displaying ePUB format resources that can be accessed on mobile devices. The focus on heutagogical learning and use of standards helps enhance the open education movement.
