5. Introduction
O R2D2 model for online learning activities – cycle
of Read, Reflect, Display and Do.
O Collaborative and active learning experiences in
a blended space
O Questionnaire – evaluate four learning activities
O Analysis suggests that the results were
favourable/ positive comments
O Assist the learning of academic skills for
vocabulary acquisition, pronunciation, note
taking and presentations.

6. Applying R2D2
O Read
O Each week, students learn 30 academic words.
O Multimedia application (Blackboard LMS)
O click on each word in order to see it written, hear it
spoken and see and hear the word used
O Finally, students practise pronunciation and use
them in academic sentences.

7. O Reflect
O record audio file using recorder and post the
audio files in the discussion forum
O Facilitator - provides feedback to each student
and encourage usage of questions
(metacognitive skills)
O Students – listen, reflect and provide feedback

8. O Display
O Students learn how to use MSPowerPoint.
O Facilitator - scaffolds the learning process by
leading an analysis of the design
O Blog - containing visual based learning activities,
examples and links about the topic, is provided
for students to utilise
O Students - expected to learn and apply Internet
search skills to find and share resources

9. O Do
O Apply in real-life situation
O E.g - investigate options for further study at University. Use
O MSPowerPoint to present
O Students - organise themselves into groups according to
students with similar future study plans. Use Internet and
every group member must speak
O Rubric – provided to measure learning outcomes and guide
students
O Summative assessment - presentation and note taking

10. Conclusion
O The model has emphasised a learning
process which places the student at the
centre of the design process enabling
them to be engaged in the active
processes of Reading, Reflecting,
Displaying and Doing.
