e-teaching

经过几天的努力，今天终于可以透过代理vidalia bundle看到youtube上的视频了，现赶紧把e-teaching转贴在此，以便学习。


这是一段通过internet来教授小提琴的案例。
其标题为：e-Teaching，
副标题为：Learner-centered e-teaching practices in the virtual high-school classroom-在虚拟高中课堂内以学习者为中心的网络教学实践。

在Youtube上发布该视频的作者elizmurphy在下段文字中简单介绍了该视频项目的情况：
Can you teach music over the Internet? How? Can you teach with Youtube? Nirvana? Piczo? Audacity? Billboard? Newsfeeds? Can you teach in a way that is engaging for the learner?

What does it mean to be a learner-centered teacher of music in a technology-mediated context? I created this video to answer this question. The video is a knowledge mobilization outcome that is part of of a collaborative inquiry in which Andrew Mercer(the teacher profiled in the video) and Andrea Rose, School of Music, Memorial University are participating.

The project is funded through a grant for a Community University Research Alliance (CURA) on e-learning from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, Canada. Visit http://www.killickcentre.ca for the project information. To discuss learner-centeredness of teaching with technology, visit http://www.learnercenteredeteaching.blogspot.com/
On a technical note, the original file was well in excess of the allowable 100 megs. I uploaded the converted wmv file of 17 megs to youtube which converts it to a swf-flash file. Unfortunately swf does not render the transitions very well.

You can view youtube videos of the e-teacher profiled in the video if you search under buckydurddle.

We have been relying on youtube to conduct reflective sessions and conversations about learner-centeredness in teaching. Why youtube? because it is a symbol of user-centeredness and of the democratisation of knowledge. Youtube is a part of the WEB 2.0 which provides so many tools for social knowledge construction and sharing (Blogs, Wikis, podcasting etc). Social knowledge construction and sharing is, I believe, at the heart of learner-centeredness.
