Books
Learning in a Time of Abundance, Dave Cormier, University of Windsor
Johns Hopkins University Press
When enormous amounts of information are available at our fingertips, how do we learn the things we need to know? This book is a must-read for those seeking guidance on how to adapt when we are overwhelmed by information overload. Whether it’s understanding social media influences on children or making impactful decisions as citizens, Cormier empowers readers in the digital age to find their humility, trust effectively, and learn to apply their values in complex situations.
Open Educational Resources (OERs) for Teaching and Learning
Teaching in a Digital Age: Guidelines for Designing Teaching and Learning, 3rd Edition, Tony Bates
BC Campus Pressbooks
The book examines the underlying principles that guide effective teaching in an age when all of us, and in particular the students we are teaching, are using technology. A framework for making decisions about your teaching is provided, while understanding that every subject is different, and every instructor has something unique and special to bring to their teaching. The book enables teachers and instructors to help students develop the knowledge and skills they will need in a digital age: not so much the IT skills, but the thinking and attitudes to learning that will bring them success.
