New Learning MOOC’s Updates

Parse an e-learning technology

Transformations in the patterns of pedagogy that accompany e-learning are examined in the materials given on the final week of the course. The authors believe that e-learning may make impact on the shifts in the systems of modern education.


I would like to parse the Padlet service as e-learning technology (www.padlet.com). It is one of the most popular online board tools today that is widely used in the schools. In Padlet any material can be placed on the board in electronic form. In my opinion, the functions that Padlet provides reflect didactic/mimetic, authentic/synthetic, and transformative/reflexive pedagogy.


Authentic and transformative pedagogy can be attributed to such an application function as the Padlet’s function to organize collective activities in real time and work with visual content can be attributed to authentic and transformative pedagogy.


The next function of Padlet to post materials from any source as well as from the Internet (photo, video, audio files) can be attributed to transformative pedagogy.


The function that provides each student to post their work on the board, and for the teacher to comment and evaluate each one, I think, reflects the didactic pedagogy.
In conclusion, I agree that today learners should design their own knowledge and not just to replicate received knowledge from memory.
