EMIM / E-Learning / Personal Contract

  • My objectives: Why I wish to learn/do something, what is meaningful for me/for my group as part of the assignment I am responsible of?
    • I want to deepen my knowledge, eLearning is familiar to me, but there is always something to learn more. Meaningful is my experience, maybe the courses I have done give something to this team too. Especially the wiki courses I´ve made.
  • What resources will I need: What software tools and resources I am going to use? Resources can be people, different artifacts, materials.
    • I most definitely need my team! I have already done one group work almost alone in the autumn ;) I will need my laptop, Internet connection, Firefox, Word, Excel, Photoshop..
  • How will I do it: What is my strategy to achieve my objectives? What is the order of my actions? How will I use different resources in my actions?
    • I believe some planning is to be done with Word and Excel, but maybe we also will use wiki or something (LATER EDIT: Google Groups). Laptop is the artifact to work with and I need Internet connection and Firefox to keep contact, deliver material and so on. With Photoshop I most likely do some pictures or something.
  • Evaluation criteria: How do I know that I was successful? Develop measurable criteria to evaluate your activities in respect of your objectives.
    • Well, the team will give feedback. And I´m quite harsh to myself as usual ;) I will rely on straight feedback, I will give myself points or something.
  • Self-reflection: Did I achieve my objectives? Use the criteria what you developed to assess how well did you work. Reflect, what worked and what did not?
    • For now we have been doing some planning. Of course I suspected a bit more activity, but as it has been seen so many times it´s so damn difficult. Maybe I should really study how to inactivate people to do group works via Internet / webcourses. Finding some successful ways would really help many!
