Development activity 2: Module mapping

Page history last edited by Anna Gruszczynska 13 years, 5 months ago

Following the peer supported reflexive review activity (as well as discussion at the development workshop TBC), the next step was to focus on eliciting rich descriptions of project partners' modules as well as discussing a variety of approaches to structure, disaggregation and potential re-use. Thus, the project team proposed a second development activity in which project partners created detailed mappings of one of their modules, using a provided module mapping template. This activity was also linked to the team's emerging ideas on project toolkit, in particular, what would become the mapping tool. It was also linked to the process of putting together case studies, which would offer an overview of the "journey" of partners' teaching materials and the steps involved in making their modules open and ready to be shared and repurposed. Within this framework, the module mapping would be one of the elements of the case study.

 

 

The following table contains all documents related to the mapping activity, that is, a module mapping template, example module mapping draft (created by the project team), project partners' mappings and any other supporting elements, together with feedback from the project team.

Having just done the case study (most of it anyway, waiting, as instructed, for clarification of section 3), I tuernewd to the suggested audio or video commentary. I can't think what I might do, especially if limited to 2 minutes -- has anyone else got any ideas?

Hi Dave

I'm not as far ahead as you but maybe this (dreadful!) video of me might give an insight into how a video can give a quick insight into a project/teaching initiative. Don't laugh too hard, the video was taken at the end of a very long week and I look very tired! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M22xv1VtDn4

Liked the video Helen! not dreadful at all, I though it was very clear, what about adding the web address as you talk about it? as a caption?.. I am going to do my module map this week, so I will think about the 2 minit limitation as I do...

Helen -- I've been slow to respond. Apologies. I liked it too, but I did notice it was longer than 2 minutes. You are obviously very suitable for video, but I also wondered if I need appear as a talking head. Could I show some nice video of local West Country scenes with a dubbed audio track do you think? Or dub me under a video of Derrida ( to mock myself, not Derrida)?

There could be some copyright/identity issues...!

Dave Harris said

I shot the local scenes myself and Derrida is dead --but I'll stick to my own work, maybe. As dor identity --we all have multiple identities, colleague :)

Dear all, we will be releasing some more information on the video commentaries shortly - in the meantime, you can browse some examples here: http://delicious.com/aniakg28/video_commentary. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to find any conclusive advice on using shots of Derrida to talk about your case study;) but I guess that the movie "Avatar" might provide some inspiration.

Unless I am misataken, all the examples have talking heads in 3/4 shots sitting in front of computer screens following the standard narrative of the expert, beloved of documentary. This is a style known in the trade as 'naive realism' and there are problems with it, one of which is that it is very hard for the audience to engage critically (rather than passively). I don't want to be awkward (again) but I thought we were being invited to use our social science backgrounds to make some sort of comment on the process of developing materials for the OER? If we know of the problems with naive realism, can we be expected still to have to use it? I don't mind if it is yes or no -- I can do naive realism, of course.

Sorry -- me again. I have written a script of about 1k words, but it takes me nearly 9 minutes to read it. Is that too much?

Hi Dave, Darren and myself will be back from Cambridge OER2010 on Wednesdya - and we'll get back to you (and comment here so that everyobody else has access to that!). greetings form Cambridge!

Hi, I have an issue I can't resolve.

I am lookoign through the toolkit. First I thought I had to adapt the model mapping to the toolkit, which works quite neatly.

I have gone back to the visual anthropology module and I would like to add the materials and documents but I can't.

I can't find the flash document used to create visual anthropologies, and the same for anthropological ideas. So basically, I am having to re-do everything again, starting from scratch.

I have seen some of the flash documents in the general files, but only the last ones....maybe we could put all the flash files in a folder where we could have access to the flash files or our courses? Otherwise the only option I have, if I want to edit my Visual Anthropology, or Reli_Cul, is to do all from scratch, which I am doing as I type.

Also, in the toolkit it is possible to add materials to the description, as it is in the content section?

Finally, I had made all the links in the module form, which are the ones that took longer to do, but these were not brought up to the toolkit. For some reason the links are missing, even though I had made those links to the materials in the module description? I also saw people alrady linking to Jorum, but the original files were linked to the wiki. Can we still link to the wiki? will these be mantained?

I think I resolved most of the issues I had earlier. I couldn't locate the mappings so I copied these from the mapping document again, this allowed me to adjust some links and it made me think of future users of the toolkit. So, this is my question...if someone wants to use the toolkit and generate their own mappings, where should they deposit best the 'materials', would JORUM agree to these or would they have to be placed in an institutional or private server? It would be interesting to know in relation to following the future use of the toolkit by other people.

I have three videos, one for each module, were would they be best deposited? I have made the link from the toolkit to the wiki for these, but I mean within the wiki, one option, of course is to put them in youtube and link them from there if necessary, let me know. I think Pam or Dave had additional files, are they linked somewhere? Also, I found student feedback for one module, I put them in comments in the toolkit. I couldn' t edit them (italics and tabbing), let mw know if there is a better way to presen them.
