Reflecting on my transformative learning experience can be daunting and intimidating. My first script was 25 minutes long and I stopped narrating my Summary of Learning. I was really torn on where to begin? In this final blog post, I’ll share key insights from EC&I 831, using examples and illustrations. I am trying to get through a lot of information in a very short amount of time (7 Minutes)
The Summary of Learning has provided invaluable lessons on the power of connection through social media and open educational resources. Understanding Professional Learning Networks (PLNs) and exploring Open Educational Resources (OERs) and how the compliment each other has been nothing less then enlightening.
The discussion Artificial Intelligence permeated every aspect of this course. However, the most impactful lesson for me has been the importance of PLNs combined with OERs. These concepts have significantly influenced how I support fellow colleagues/teachers and students.
Hi Gerry!
I really enjoyed watching your video. I can relate to the really long original summary and having to cut it down – it was tricky! You did a great job!
I’m curious – did you cut down your script yourself? Or did you get AI to help?
Again, great work on your video! 🙂
Hi Gerry
Thanks for the in-depth reflection on your key takeaways in this class. I can’t agree less with you on the importance of PLN, not just with teachers and colleagues but also with students. And yes, some of these networks really provide opportunities to share and possibly work together on designing teaching resources that are unique to our students’ context. I also loved the way you integrated a live video of yourself into this reflection. I would really love to know how you did this.
Great job, Gerry, and it was nice learning with you and other colleagues in this course.
Hi Ayodele,
I used Camtasia Pro to merge the live video into the presentation. You also will want to use Camtasia Capture. I find it works better the other captures like Microsoft Clipchamp/Stream. The snipit program is good as long as you use an mp4, jpg or png format.
It was a a pleasure being on this learning journey with you in this class.
All the best
Gerry
