Being A Pedagogical Therapist
Terry Greene is a Program Manager at eCampusOntario, on secondment from Fleming College, where he is a Learning Technology Specialist. He holds a B.Ed. in Elementary Education from the University of Alberta and a M.Sc. in Instructional Design & Technology from the University of North Dakota. He is interested in both the cutting and trailing edges of uses for technology in education. Especially those that increase the human element in technology-enabled learning. Hint, hint, those are probably the more open ones.
A lot of instructional design and e-learning has been focused on very lonely learning, such as making up a software that thinks about what students need next and feeds it to them rather than allowing those students to connect with another human that’s across the world. That’s what’s cool about technology to me, not that the technology itself could could talk to me. I’d rather talk to a real person.
