Abstract

This digital kiosk presentation will highlight how undergraduate students have worked individually and together online since 2009 using Wiki tools and communication. The presentation will demonstrate this process promoting individual student self-directed learning, critical thinking and working collaboratively in groups. Students initially personalise their learning experience by “owning their own content” and allowing their peers to see how they work. This open online environment establishes a level playing field, allowing students to not only submit their own work, but also observe how other students perform on the same tasks. How does personalised learning work in the online group-learning environment? For the first time a group project can be dissected by individual contributions, students are therefore “personalised” by knowing their contribution counts. In the group work a peer assessor process allows individual students to provide their own feedback and assessment of other group prepared projects. A valuable aspect of the entire online learning process is that students own, identify, interact with peers and still remain anonymous, being identified only by their student number. This allows individual students to safely personalise their online learning experience.

What is it?

I think that "personalised learning" is about generating a student specific learning experience when working as an individual or in a group.

An example of individual learning is by using blended learning to incorporate different ways of understanding the same concept.

An example in group work is recognising the individual contribution to a project with several student authors.

This presentation will describe personalised learning in group work.

How do we do it?
