Williams, Katherine; Werth, Eric – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2021
COVID-19, in addition to disrupting the global education system in general, is widening the economic and racial gaps institutions have spent years trying to address.

Funk, Johanna – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2021
This paper positions Open Educational Practices (OEP) as adding significant value to pandemic-era online learning. Much of online learning during COVID was characterised as being low quality, and an emphasis on providing care began to override the impact that reformed pedagogy could have in caring for students. Concepts of Indigenous Knowledge…

Olney, Tom; Piashkun, Siarhei – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2021
Throughout 2020, and into 2021, national governments were forced at different times to impose 'lockdown' on traditional approaches to education to cope with the impact of COVID-19. Higher education institutions (HEI) with face-to-face models scrambled to 'pivot' to distance and online learning. Whilst originally conceived as a temporary measure,…

Adam, Taskeen – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2020
As social justice and decolonisation discussions fill the physical and virtual corridors of universities in South Africa, educators, and in this case, MOOC designers, are inevitably influenced by them. They are prompted to reflect on such topics, whether in agreement or with scepticism. Provoked by one interviewee's comment that 'you could…

Hillaire, Garron; Iniesto, Francisco; Rienties, Bart – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2019
This paper outlines an innovative approach to evaluating the emotional content of three online courses using the affective computing approach of prosody detection on two different text-to-speech (TTS) voices in conjunction with human raters judging the emotional content of the text. This work intends to establish the potential variation on the…

Iniesto, Francisco; McAndrew, Patrick; Minocha, Shailey; Coughlan, Tim – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2016
Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) have become an accepted way to make learning opportunities available at large scale and with low cost to the learner. However, only if these are made accessible will they be able to offer flexibility of learning and benefits to all, irrespective of disability. Experience in providing accessible online learning…

Urrutia, Manuel León; Fielding, Sarah; White, Su – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2016
The advent of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) has been altering the Higher Education landscape in recent years. This kind of courses are penetrating in an increasing number of universities, the majority of which do not seem to have intentions to stop offering them in the short term. Such courses are generating new educational scenarios to…

White, Steven; White, Su – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2016
Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) are frequently portrayed as "agents of change" in higher education (HE), impacting on institutional practices, processes and structures throughout HE. However, these courses do not "fit" neatly with the established aims and functions of universities, and accounts of technology-led change in…

Lane, Andy – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2014
A number of visual models have been proposed to help explain the interplay and interactions between specified components of higher education systems at different levels and to take account of emerging trends towards open education systems. At sector and institutional levels the notion of an iron triangle has been posited, linking firstly access,…

This chapter aims to put these OER policies in context, discussing their focus and scope and highlighting challenges and bottlenecks. On the basis of the analysis of the current state of the art, it is argued that one of main…

Weller, Martin – Journal of Interactive Media in Education, 2013
In this article the author argues that openness in education has been successful in establishing itself as an approach. However, this initial victory should be viewed as part of a larger battle around the nature of openness. Drawing lessons from history and the green movement, a number of challenges for the open education movement are identified…

This theoretical paper attempts to clarify design issues that the field of education has encountered in the context of OER (Open Educational Resources), Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and increased emphasis on informal learning, as examined through the lens of the Interaction Equivalency Theorem. An overview of the core concepts of the…
