Humans interacting at a distance. The experience of teachers, students and administrators
Humans interacting at a distance. The experience of teachers, students and administrators
10:30 - 13:30
Hall 1
Moderator:
D. Jennifer Roberts (Institute for Open and Distance Learning UNISA (University of South Africa), Pretoria, South Africa
Currently, a large amount of research is focused on the technological and pedagogical aspects of distance education, with less attention being paid to the human aspect. Too often the human component is overlooked when considering new developments in education. Education is always about humans interacting – technology is just a vehicle enabling human interaction at scale and at a distance.
Many educators are faced with the challenge of not only keeping up with developments in their own discipline, but also being an educator who must effectively communicate with, and teach their students. This session intends to support educators in their teaching practice by combining reputable research findings with very practical aspects which will be addressed in a research workshop.
The theoretical aspects in this session will address topics such as:
1. The roles you as an educator need to fulfil while teaching, and what competencies you will have to develop to teach in the digital age;
2. The impact of Open Educational practices for you as a lecturer;
3. Workplace learning as an aspect of Human Resource Development (HRD);
4. Case studies of lecturers teaching in a distance education environment.
The second part of the session is a practical hands-on workshop on how to translate your practical experiences of teaching, into research projects. The intention is that these research projects will then be developed into articles that can be published in international journals. The goal of the session is that every participant will have the blueprint of an article in the making.
Many lecturers are specialists in their own particular field and are now being asked to publish in the new field of technology enhanced distance education. This workshop will include discussions on the various theoretical frameworks that support online learning and distance education, as well as appropriate research designs and methodologies.
There will also be an opportunity to discuss your own research interests with the facilitators of the workshop, who are well published in international journals.
Participants:
Professor Jenny Roberts, Associate professor at the Institute for Open and Distance Learning, University of South Africa (Unisa)
Future-proofing distance educators: a study to identify professional development strategies and training.
Natalia Dneprovskaya, associate Professor at Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Moscow;
Dr. Inessa Shevtsova, Lomonosov Moscow State University

- For how many years has e-learning been implemented at your educational institution? What are the pitfalls?
- How are problems related to interaction among departments arranged: by carrot or stick? Which is better?
- Does the number of employees involved in the organization of e-learning depend on the number of students? How?
- Share the most memorable positive moment you have experienced during the process. How was this achieved?
- From implementation to maintenance: one step or more?

Hall 1
Moderator:
Mary Cooch (Moodle Community Educator, Moodle Pty Ltd )
Engaging learners with gamification
In these modern technological times, students expect high quality teaching and are no longer content to listen passively to long lectures. 'Gamification' is increasingly discussed as a way to motivate students and add interest to difficult subjects, but the term is often misunderstood, and gamification itself is sometimes used inappropriately.
This session will be in 4 parts. Participants will be provided with access to a Moodle site and Moodle course for the practical sessions.
Part 1: Introduction to Gamification (presentation) (approx 25 min).
Part 2: Explore gamified course as a student (approx 25 min).
Part 3:
(a) Discussion about the gamified course (approx 15 min)
(b) Discussion about gamification theory, practice, problems, challenges (approx 30 min)
Part 4: Explore gamification as an editing teacher creating a gamified Moodle course (approx 30 min)
Conclusion: Sharing courses for download if wanted, completing feedback activity (approx 10 min)
