Fantastic course! The ideas are not new, but considering how the lecturers link what is known in education to be essential pedagogical approaching to new technology in order to improve student learning, I believe this is one of the most essential courses teachers and educational leaders need to take to hep prepare themselves for the needed changes in education

The video lectures covered concepts that were immediately applicable to my career as a high school teacher and community college instructor. I found imagination was sparked with new ideas for lessons and new approaches to classroom practices. If you care about student experience and systemic change in education, I do believe this course is worth completing.

An interesting approach on how current teaching technologies can serve both to repeat "more of the same" or to create a new opportunity to revolutionize teaching pedagogy. This course is a great opportunity for teachers who want to start getting used to using digital tools in teaching - a trend that is apparently guaranteed for the future of education.

I really enjoy learning this online course. It's my first time taking an entirely online course. Through this course, I learn lots of valuable new educational concepts that open my mind and benefit me in my future career. I love the online class community where I could meet global professionals who have the same passion as me. Thank you, Coursera.

This course challenged me to think about my apprehensions on e-Learning. In the past 4 weeks, I went through a process of unlearning, relearning, and learning. Though I still prefer face to face classes, I’m confident with the opportunities that e-Learning brings to our students. Thanks to Dr Bill Cope, Dr Mary Kalantzis, and their team!

It was wonderful to attend and complete this course. Lectures and learning from Dr Bill and Dr Mary were very effective, useful and insightful. The concept of e-Learning Ecologies: Innovative Approaches to Teaching and Learning for the Digital Age and learning of eLearning Affordances are really useful and worth knowing.

Enjoyed the analogies comd comparisons it helped me create links to my own experience. I didn't feel like I was being force fed knowledge and then asked to produce. Currently enrolled in another course offered by the same university university and it feels like they are info dumping andjust reading off the slides :/

Using affordance approach, the tutors introduce us to the e-learning ecologies. Found it interesting and obtained many takeaways from the course. I am not from education, therefore in order to do the assignments, I needed to read many papers in education and digital learning.

One of the most beautiful courses that I have gained a lot of skills and knowledge, and God willing, I will talk about it with colleagues in the profession and encourage them to join it and transfer to them what I gained from this course. Thank you for what you have provided

This is an amazing course. I have found super interesting ideas and a totally new approach to use technology as a learning tool not only for my students but for myself too.

If you are interested in education, if you have kids or are an educator this is a must to do course.

Thank you to my instructor's for all the support. For moving ahead kindly include stem based courses for educators of primary level classes, as it is the trend now in schools and very essential for all teachers gain knowledge in this field.

Thank you once again.

This course provides an interesting overview of e-Learning Ecologies and also gives an insight into the 7 affordances of e-Learning. The materials are well-presented, and the experience is augmented by relaxed and friendly teaching styles of Cope & Kalantzis

Taking this course has been a very thoughtful and also mind opening experience to me. I really liked the discussion around the 7 affordances which is a solid and forward looking framework to help us undertstand what really is education in the digital age.

I have worked in education for 13 year. I have had a lot of experience working with digital tools. This course was absolutely fantastic, with high academic quality. I loved it so much Im going to take more courses from this University and Department.

The Course exposes me to several novel concepts in the field of e-learning. It has been a great pleasure enrolling and completing this Course. I am gonna do more to enhance my career and job performance. Thank you Illinois

Excellent course, the lectures videos were very well done and were thoroughly engaging. I'm going to do more courses with the University of Illinois, I learnt a lot.

More assessed tasks/quizzes would be better, though.

A great experience in terms of research and development, participations and providing new ideas that help continuous growth and development and keep pace with the developments of the times beautifully and effectively

Curso bem estruturado. A integração com o Scholar proporciona conhecer um ambiente feito exclusivamente para o contexto educacional. O curso proporciona recursos para repensar a prática docente na cultura digital.

This was an informative course outlining the various learning theories and principles that construct e-Learning environments to inform on constructive and progressive learning designs for the 21st Century.
