  Title Social Interaction in Self-paced Distance Education Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Abbreviated Journal Open Praxis; Vol 7, No 1 (2015)  
  Volume Issue Pages  
  Keywords (down) Social Networks; blogs; self-paced study; online education; web 2.0; enhanced learning  
  Abstract In this paper we present a case study of a self-paced university course that was originally designed to support independent, self-paced study at distance. We developed a social media intervention, in design-based research terms, that allows these independent students to contribute archived content to enhance the course, to engage in discussions with other students and to share as little or as much personal information with each other as they wished. We describe the learning design for the intervention and present survey data of student and tutor perception of value and content analysis of the archived contributions. The results indicate that the intervention was positively received by tutors and by the majority (but not all) students and that the archive created by the students'Äô contributions was adding value to the course. We conclude that the intervention was a modest, yet manageable example of a learning enhancement to a traditional cognitive-behavioral, course that has positive impact and potential with little negative impact on workload.

  Title Soft Technology Design Type Journal Article
  Year 2012 Publication Abbreviated Journal The 1st International Symposium on Smart Learning Environment  
  Volume Issue Pages 9-12  
  Keywords (down) social media, technology, soft systems, hard systems, social software;  
  Abstract This is a paper about the design of systems that are part human, part machine. It uses a framework for understanding the nature of technology that builds on W. Brian Arthur's notion of technology as the orchestration of phenomena to some use and the nature of technologies as assemblies. Technologies are treated as existing on a continuum between soft and hard, with soft technologies orchestrated by humans and hard ones embedding that orchestration within the technology. The concept is explored in relation to Athabasca Landing, a deliberately soft social system that attempts to avoid predetermined purpose and design so that its inhabitants actively create the technology as they use it. The paper describes some issues that arise and steps being taken to address them.
