I can't believe it has been so long since my last blog or that this semester is almost over! 
Lecture 9 was delivered by Rob Phillips and was about learning with multimedia. I enjoy Rob's lectures as they are informative and entertaining and this lecture was no different - it required some group participation and discussion.  Rob addressed the technologies used in EDN113 and asked if we could give examples to support them.
  • Tool to support knowledge construction - campanion website, examples on LMS
  • Tool for exploring information and knowledge - google, library database, EndNote
  • Tool for learning by doing - personal website construction
  • Tool for communicating with others - discussion forums on LMS
  • Tool for learning by reflection - personal blog on website

Some of these examples I found I really had to think about; where others came to me relatively easily.

Next Rob addressed different forms of educational multimedia and how they are used for education.  This was really interesting, as well as being inspirational in reference to completing Assignment 3 and ideas for the classroom in the future.

I particularly like the slides with the School Maths 'jokes' on them.
