Using Blackboard Learn alongside Microsoft OneNote: the overlaps, the complementary features and the consequences | Stuart Fankhauser - Nossal High School | TLCANZ17
Beginning in 2016, Nossal High School began to focus its professional learning for staff on the use of Microsoft OneNote as complementary teaching and learning software to the MH Blackboard Learn environment we have run for the last 5 years. In this time, the speed and depth of the take up of OneNote and its impact on the teaching and learning experience of staff and students has been dramatic. Not only have our students fully embraced OneNote from a learners' perspective, all teaching and support staff are using Microsoft OneNote to record their own professional development, maintaining an ongoing conversation with the college executive and collecting evidence for their personal records.
This rapid adoption has forced us to consider closely what OneNote elements overlap with Bb Learn, which features are complementary with Bb Learn and ultimately, what part these two software solutions will have within our overall teaching and learning program.
During the presentation, I will be looking at the features of Bb Learn and OneNote that we intend to keep unique to each environment, as well as the elements that we are comfortable in having some overlap. Our overall aim is to ensure we are promoting to staff the most effective software solution for any given purpose whilst ensuring our students are not confused about the location of resources and information from class to class.
I will conclude with what we currently see as the most effective arrangement for the use of these two software packages going forward.

o Bright and Shiny Surprise Guest
o Learning Styles: A Misguided Attempt to Highlight Individual Differences in
Learners
"The take home message for me after reading this review paper is that the
learning styles approach is a way too simplified conceptualization of human
cognition paired with misguided recommendations. For me this adds to the
reasons not to use them to inform education. Individual differences exist, but their
nature differ from what the learning styles approach puts forward. From the
evidence provided in the review, it is easy to see that tailoring instruction as
suggested by the learning style approach can potentially have negative
consequences for the learner."
