Week 2 Notes - FDO: The Deep Dive

FLO Week 2: Diversity

The mini-session this week is:

• Diversity - explore the differences between face-to-face and online learning environments from the potential perspectives of adults of various ages, cultural backgrounds, economic conditions, and personal and educational backgrounds.
  

In the FLO Sandbox review these materials to become familiar with the details, learning outcomes, and suggested approaches. This, combined with your own experience, may "twig" other ideas that you could add to the plan and suggest to your participants.

• The Week 2 Overview 
• The Activity Plan in the Facilitation Teams Workspace

In this unit we highlight the "big idea" that people learn in different ways, and so we should aim to include a variety in our activities and content types - a mix of individual and team, text and media, etc.

Technical Details:  you will need to be able to:

• create and populate teams in the LMS (Moodle)
• support the people who are using tools other than the forum. For example, for the wiki you need to know how to create and link new pages, fiddle with tables, write the instructions on the main page and, if the wiki includes several pages, create navigation structures.
