AgShare Methodology

Objectives 1: Creation of an enabling institutional environment to support the adoption of the AgShare student-centred research methodology in identified programmes. 2: Increased number of peer reviewed OERs produced to support and enhance post-graduate agricultural curricula using the AgShare method. 3: Widespread dissemination of the AgShare methodology and related quality African OER, using multiple methods.

We can even blend the way we access our Virtual Learning Environment … Offline version of virtual learning environment Enabling access to – Full course with learning pathway – Identical structure and functions – Resources & materials Go online or synchronization for: – Uploading assignments – Communications e.g. forums

Blended learning – academic approach

Making the most of the changed environment Dimensions – Spatial separation (geographically distributed) – Determining extent of digital ICT support – Temporal (asynchronous, semi-synchronous, synchronous) Human Dimension – Establish online/offline presence – teachers & learners – Promote engagement & interaction – Define appropriate level of mediation – Class size - small virtual/physical groups

Final Thoughts The way in which we use digital technology models particular values for our students and places particular kinds of demands both on them and on their teachers. We need to make conscious choices to use suitable digital technologies in appropriate ways taking cognisance of both our learning purposes and the technology profile of our target learners and teachers. Principles: Embrace the opportunities afforded by ICTs while preserving pedagogical integrity Promote the opening of education using appropriate supporting ICTs Use ICTs to support (not drive) the teaching and learning process Be adaptive to change and mindful of context when utilising supporting ICTs Build capacity to promote sustainability in changing learning environments
