Universiteiten geven regie uit handen
George Siemens stelt in zijn blog elearnspace het onvermogen van universiteiten aan de kaak om zelf het onderwijs richting te geven.
Hier volgt de letterlijke tekst:
"Make no mistake, dramatic changes are occurring in education. These changes, due to the reluctance of the academy to map activities to the reality of the external world, are driven by external innovation. Quite simply, higher education is not in control of its fate as it has failed to develop the capacity to be self-reliant in times of change.
I’ve seen universities (such as University of Manitoba) reach out to consulting and accounting firms to provide structural and funding change recommendations. I’ve seen universities begin to partner with online course providers such as StraighterLine to extend course offerings because they (the university) are simply not capable of fulfilling these roles themselves – they lack capacity to participate in this new space of learning.
I used to think that higher education and open access would do away with the dominant role of traditional publishers. It looks like I was wrong. Publishers are now offering full course content packages that blend textbooks with faculty-produced materials (i.e. McGraw-Hill’s purchase of Tegrityg – a lecture capture software). The university’s reliance on external offerings to fill their capacity gaps is a growing trend. For some (traditional liberal education advocates) it’s a concern. For others (entrepreneurs) it’s a blessing. And for still others (traditional publishers and content creators), it’s a way to stay relevant and perhaps even become more integrated with educational institutions than was possible with a textbook publishing model."

Experimenteren met het wetenschappelijk artikel
Wetenschappelijk uitgever Sage gaat een samenwerkingsverband aan met SciVee, een video platform voor STM (Science/Technology/Medicine) publicaties. Aan de hand van een drietal psychologische tijdschriften van de Association for Psychological Science (Psychological Science, Psychological Science in the Public Interest en Current Directions in Psychological Science) wil Sage nagaan of de zichtbaarheid van de wetenschappelijke artikelen in genoemde tijdschriften vergroot wordt met behulp van SciVee's pubcasts.
In pubcasts presenteren auteurs een gesynchroniseerde video samenvattingen van hun wetenschappelijk artikel. Ten opzichte van een tekstuele samenvatting, is deze innovatieve wijze van disseminatie van wetenschappelijke informatie veel dynamischer en geengageerder. Bovendien kunnen de video's makkelijk gedistribueerd worden via internet en zo de zichtbaarheid van de auteur aanzienlijk vergroten.
Hier een voorbeeld van een pubcast.

Video en flexibilisering van het leren
Learning exchange, een open access tijdschrift van de Universiteit van Westminster, met
"Using video technology to manage knowledge delivery and enable more bespoke and differentiated student learning opportunities" van Stephen Gomez, Holger Andersson en Caroline Chipperfield.
"Technology, especially web-based systems, allows numerous benefits for managing information and knowledge delivery to traditional learners as well as engaging non-traditional learners with university education. By raising aspirations and developing a more flexible approach, institutions are looking to technological solutions to support and enhance their student learning offer. Technology can be a key way of unlocking a student’s potential, allowing a more bespoke and differentiated experience whether the learner is from a family with a history of educational success or a ‘first in family’ attendee. The e-learning techniques which form part of this paper allow a layered approach that enables individual learners to manage their learning at a speed and level that is appropriate for their particular needs. It gives opportunities for peer learning and exchange in a ‘safe’ environment managed by the tutor and containing elements of social networking which nowadays forms a significant part of a learner’s interaction with others. This paper focuses on the use of ‘interactive’ video learning materials where both instructor and student can contribute to the knowledge pool and present this information in a layered manner."

Infographic software
Makeuseof met 10 stukjes sofware voor het maken van infographics.
"Information graphics, visual representations of data known as infographics, keep the web going these days. Web users, with their diminishing attention spans, are inexorably drawn to these shiny, brightly coloured messages with small, relevant, clearly-displayed nuggets of information. They’re straight to the point, usually factually interesting and often give you a wake-up call as to what those statistics really mean."

Onderzoekshandleiding voor studenten
Een gezamelijk initiatief van de bibliotheken van de University of California: de studentenhandleiding "Where do I start?".
"The tutorial features a series of interactive exercises and demonstrations designed to engage and educate beginning level researchers. The lessons can be followed sequentially or accessed and used as stand-alone introductions to discrete topics, such as how to begin research, find books, find articles, or use basic and advanced search techniques. In addition to use by individual students, the tutorial is specifically designed so that instructors can link to and show lessons while teaching. For example, a librarian could use the section on Boolean operators in the Basic Search module as a demonstration during a class presentation or on the knowledge cycle for a research course across disciplines. The tutorial can be linked from library guides, web pages, learning management systems and more"

Article-based publishing
Elsevier introduceert: Article-based publishing.
"a new publishing model that publishes articles as final and citable without needing to wait until a journal issue is complete. With an increasing focus on online publishing, there is a growing need for innovative publication models geared towards individual articles instead of the print-based issue model. Article-Based Publishing is the assigning of final citation data on an article-by-article basis, decoupled from the compilation of the journal issue itself."
