Produktbeschreibung

Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Pedagogy - Media Pedagogy, grade: 74, The Open University (School of Educational Technology), course: Technology-Enhanced Learning: Practices and Debates, language: English, abstract: This module paper attempts to evaluate how learners own technology enhanced learning. It begins with a critical review of McCarthy’s ‘Learning in the Café: pilot testing the collaborative application for education in Facebook’ and Thorpe’s ‘Effective online interaction: mapping course design to bridge from research to practice’. The fact that Facebook has different features that promote student interactions, it was no surprise that 92 % agreed that Café encourages their interaction with their peers. The importance of this interaction was confirmed by Thorpe (2008) who recommends a range of activities that promote both group and individual participation as well as compulsory student participation for effective interaction.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Sixbert Sangwa is a Rwandan Christian minister, Academic, Kingdom Entrepreneur and Non-profit Practitioner. Sixbert has extensive experience in managing economic empowerment projects in the humanitarian and development arena, through national and international NGOs. He leveraged his strategic and business development skills to become a caring SME consultant and is known as the founder of various entrepreneurial initiatives. Today, Sixbert has remained instrumental to higher education in the fields of business, entrepreneurship and theology. He believes that the future of employment belongs to social entrepreneurship. However, he is concerned about the disconnect between faith and business, hence his continental mission to integrate faith and work. Sixbert's education is twofold. His first secular degree is in Rural Development and Agribusiness. He holds a Master of Business Administration (MBA) and a Master of Arts in Online and Distance Education as well as a Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) and a PhD in Entrepreneurship and Branding. His religious track yielded him a Bachelor of Divinity, a Master of Ministry, a Master of Theological Studies, a Doctor of Chritsian Business Administration and a PhD in Religious Studies. As his research interests rest on general business management, open education and Christian affairs on the one hand, he is also open to offering advisory support in the same areas.
