Hi everyone I have recently begun collecting data using the Metacognition Survey, with a 5 point likert scale (strongly disagree to strongly agree). I am interested in exploring how much awareness students have of their own regulation of learning on their Distance learning programme. The programme is aimed at Medical Educators. I would be interested in hearing from others who may have conducted similar ...

Devine, My apologies for not checking the discussion board sooner. There is considerable evidence regarding the learning effectiveness when following the principles of the CoI framework. I would suggest checking out some of the editorials. I am currently working on an editorial that addresses this topic. Perhaps others can be more specific. DRG

Eva & Annette, Thank you so much for sharing this and congratulations on a thoughtful article. This is invaluable in addressing this issue regarding Lipman and the CoI framework. Moreover, I think you have been more than fair in your assessment of critical thinking in the context of the CoI framework. For me, CT provided a broader context and starting point. We did not do the hard work of providing direct links to ...

Your teachers are welcome to register in DCOI up to the final day of the MOOC, April 15, 2023. After that date, however, registration will be closed. The MOOC will have a weekly schedule of topics, but the materials and discussions from earlier weeks remain open, and late arrivals can catch up. Anyone who registers by April 15 will also have read-only access to the materials after that date - so if you can get your ...

Yes - because learning is so complex and so intangible, we'll likely never be able to approach it directly, so it might be useful to see each theory as trying to approach it from a different perspective, with its own beliefs, values, and goals. The CoI framework, for example, could be interpreted as trying to integrate three different perspectives on the central idea of an "educational experience", and how these ...

It's a 5-point Likert scale (1=strongly disagree; 5=strongly agree), shown in Appendix A. But Shared ...
