Berry, Camosun College  \nAbstract  \nThis paper summarizes a multi-year research project that examines the use and value of visible and persistent artefacts within an online learning environment. This study is framed within elements ofa business management theory. Changes to an online learning environment are documented as well as an examination of the impact of these changes on the learning process. The study also shows the impact of learner engagement with artefacts over the life of multiple iterations of a course within this socially networked online learning space.  \nTwo significant outcomes emerged: 1. How the use ofa socially networked online learning environment can offer a rich and supportive place for teaching and learning; and 2. That students in this study support the inclusion of an archive containing artefacts from learners in prior iterations ofa course. The connection between the inclusion of this archive and the impact of a socially networked online learning environment will be demonstrated throughout.  \nResume  \nCet article résume un projet de recherche sur plusieurs années, examinant l’utilisation et la valeur des artefacts visibles et persistants au sein d’un environnement d’apprentissage en ligne. Cette étude a été structurée selon des éléments d’une théorie de la gestion des affaires. Les modifications à l’environnement d’apprentissage en ligne sont documentées, ainsi que l’examende l’incidence de ces modifications sur le processus d’apprentissage. L’étude montre aussil’impact de l’engagement de l’apprenant avec les artefacts sur plusieurs itérations d’un cours dans un espace d’apprentissage en ligne doté de réseaux sociaux.  \nDeux résultats importants ont émergé : 1. un espace d’apprentissage en ligne doté deréseaux sociaux peut offrir un endroit riche et soutenant pour l’enseignement et l’apprentissage; et 2. les étudiants dans cette étude sont favorables à l’inclusion d’une archive rassemblant les artefacts d’apprenants des itérations préalables d’un cours. Le lien entre l’inclusion de cette  \narchive et l’impact d’un espace d’apprentissage en ligne doté de réseaux sociaux sera démontré tout au long.  \nIntroduction  \nMost post-secondary online courses occur as isolated events. Apart from the continuity of the instructor, class assignments, and the base content, each new section of a course is, in essence, a new event, which generally does not contain artefacts from students who participated in earlier sections. This paper outlines the results of a research study that examines the potential use, and value of, retaining artefacts within a course archive from current and prior students and making these artefacts available to students in subsequent iterations of an online course. The underlying assumption: students are denied access to a rich and dynamic learning resource by the act of removing all prior student contributions to previous course iterations. The new course shell is wiped clean of past student artefacts. Through the use of a design-based research (DBR) model, this study examines the use and value of persistent course artefacts by altering an online course, retaining, and making available these artefacts for current and future learners.  \nOakeshott (1989) suggests that the value of a conversation,“lies in the relics it leaves behind in the minds of those who participate”(p. 60) . Although some might suggest that what goes on in an online class is much more than a conversation, it can be argued that the rich exchanges that occur within an online class can be seen in a fashion similar to a conversation. Thus, there may be value in re-examining these physical relics in the form of student artefacts left behind at the end ofan online course: “Artefacts range from asynchronous discussions, blog","cbCaieJzNmmXgQtq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieJzNmmXgQtq","pdf",757282,16,"English","# Introduction\n## Research approach and theoretical framework\n## Value of retaining artefacts across course iterations\n# Key outcomes","[{\"question\":\"What does the study investigate about online learning environments?\",\"answer\":\"The study examines the use and value of visible, persistent artefacts in an online learning environment, including how changes to the environment affect learning.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper describe the role of artefacts across course iterations?\",\"answer\":\"It argues that retaining and providing an archive of artefacts from current and prior students supports learning in subsequent course iterations.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the research identify as major outcomes?\",\"answer\":\"It finds that socially networked online environments can offer rich, supportive spaces for teaching and learning, and that students support including an archive of learners’ prior artefacts.\"}]","Persistent Artefacts in an Online Classroom - The Value of a Dynamic Learning Archive | PDF",1792085824]
