 Welcome
to my E-tivities website which aims to give you a taste of
the book (published on 27th August 2002). Please explore and
sample some of the contents of the book.
E-tivities is the word I give to frameworks
for online active and interactive learning.
E-tivities are
- Motivating, engaging and purposeful
- Based on interaction between learners/students/participants
mainly through written message contributions
- Designed and led by an e-moderator
- Asynchronous (i.e. take place over time)
- Cheap and easy to run- usually through text based bulletin
boards
Key features of e-tivities
- A small piece of information, stimulus or challenge (the
‘spark’)
- Online activity which includes individual participants
posting a contribution
- An interactive or participative element- such as responding
to the postings of others
- Summary, feedback or critique from an e-moderator (the
‘plenary’)
All the instructions to take part are available in one online
message.
