COMMUNITY MATRIX
Creating a community matrix was a wonderful exercise which helped me realize the connection between the tools I use and the learner and the content in which they are used. This makes my collaborative learning environment a more fluid one as I begin to make the connections have greater clarity. As I understand and can explain the rationale by which I choose the different tools, my learning environment will become more vibrant and exciting.
The Community Matrix is a list of tools that can be used to connect the learner, instructor and content in an online course. It is important for the instructor to choose tools that will enhance an online course in such a way that the connections for the learner to the instructor, the content and to other learners is clear and well defined. Here is my matrix.
Changes made to Community Matrix:
I made no changes to this matrix based on the comments and grade of Exemplary from the instructor: I do however have this file marked as one to add to as my experience continues in online learning.
Excellent list and analysis Patti! You did a great job analyzing the types of connections the tools can make. You have tools for all types of interactions including email for private conversations! You have good learner-content tools! Well done! I don't have a single suggestion and that is RARE! ( Kay Lehmann, evaluation for Module four Matrix assignment)
