During the first week of Open Networked Learning ONL172 we will share expectations, background knowledge and begin to build relationships among participants. The approach is “learning-by-doing” in order to develop skills dealing with the use of digital tools for teaching and learning. The course build on international and cross-institutional collaboration and also invites “open learners” with no academic affiliation.

The FISh-model is used for networking and sharing of material and practices:

Step 1: Focus

• What do I/we see?
• How do I/we understand what we see?
• What do I/we need to find out more about?
• Specify learning issues/intended learning outcomes!

Step 2: Investigate

• How and where am I/are we going to find answers?
• What will I do/who will do what and by when?
• What main findings and solutions do I/we propose?

Step 3: Share

• How am I/are we going to present my/our findings?
• What do I/we want to share with the community?
• How can I/we provide feedback to others?
• What reflections do I have about my learning (and working with others)?

This is my presentation for the first week:
