Reaction! (Manifesto for Teaching Online)

1/11/2016

0 Comments

 
The Manifesto for Teaching Online  is a series of short statements created by the Digital Education group at the University of Edinburgh. The Manifesto articulates a position about online education that informs the work of the Digital Education group (of which I am part) and the MSc in Digital Education programme it leads.

Earlier today (1 November 2016) my colleague Si
ân Bayne (Professor and Personal Chair of Digital Education) spoke about the Manifesto during her keynote presentation to the Next Generation: Digital Learning Research Symposium​ being held by National Institute for Digital Learning in Dublin City University. Within her keynote Siân showed a short video that I prepared to support the Manifesto. As I sat at the back of an Architecture class this morning (as part of my Doctoral research into multimodal assessment) I sensed from the flurry of Twitter-notifications lighting up my phone that the Manifesto has attracted some interest. 

I have since looked back through an impressively lengthy conference hashtag to pull together some of the responses to the Manifesto. The Manifesto was always intended to be provocative and to encourage reflection and debate therefore it has been intriguing to see how different statements from the Manifesto resonated across the audience. I'll let the Twitter commentary speak for itself.

Distance is temporal, affective, political, not just spatial. Thoughts from @sbayne #nextgendl

'We are the campus' re distance learners is also useful to challenge to Teresa May's 'citizen of the world=citizen of nowhere' #nextgenDL

Prob my fav point from @sbayne & @EdinburghUni's manifesto for teaching online: Distance is a positive principle, not a deficit #nextgenDL
