Title: | Transforming online learning in TVET using blackboard | Authors: | Yu, Wai Mui, Christina | Issue Date: | 2010 | Journal: | International Journal of Vocational Education and Training | Abstract: | In view of the rapid need for using information and communication technology (ICT) in TVET, teachers need to realize and generate technology-based strategies. This study aimed to transform modules to online learning by using engaged learning theory via Blackboard system. Through a collection of students' and teachers' reflections, assignments and online records, it was found that students and teachers increased their level of participation in an e-learning environment but some costs and challenges were also identified. This paper employs a Business Studies module to illustrate the online learning transformation with Blackboard to report students' and teachers' responses. Furthermore, it identifies their changing roles throughout. The costs, benefits, and challenges of using Blackboard in TVET are also discussed. | Keywords: | Transforming online learning Blackboard platform Engaged learning Technical and vocational education and training Business studies Hong Kong |
