Student Approach[consumption of information]

Individual students had some ‘amazing resources’ including..
– YouTube animations/videos
– Articles
– Web sites
– Research Blogs
– Research Wiki’s
Staff were actually very impressed by the quality of many of these resources....
Which raises the question...
is it the responsibility of staff to source/supply resources?
Closer investigations revealed...

In higher education the focus has been on content and the delivery of this
content to the student. Adopting this new paradigm would see us
harnessing the collective intelligence of our students to continually
improve the student experience through a more intensive interaction in
the educational process. This represents a far more complex environment
than is presently in place. Students would be viewed not as receptacles
for information but as an integral element of the construction of
knowledge. In fact, to adopt this approach is to make students an
essential part of the educational process in ways that blur the boundaries
between our traditional conceptions of teaching and learning.
The Potential of the Emerging Model

Where to Next...

We need to broaden our current narrow view of ‘resources’ .
Currently resources support consumption of information rather than the construction of knowledge [...they are not part of a purposeful workflow].
Resources are currently supplied by the course, but should be supplied by staff & students and be accessible from a course/paper repository.
