Reflection week 2

14 September 2015

            These week topics are online learning environment. The online learning environment divide into three subtopic, which are: 1) What is online learning, 2) Types of online learning environment, 3) Online learning vs innovative learning. Dr Jamaluddin explains about the meaning of online and learning environment. It’s also describe the types of online learning includes e-learning, online learning, virtual learning environment, formal and informal learning environment, and personal and social learning environment. 

            Each type has a different meaning that we need to understand. Online learning and e-learning almost the same thing and meaning. Virtual learning is a learning platform system. It’s also delivering materials to students. Formal learning environment is a learning system that organized and structured environment. Informal learning environment support the system for example youtube. It’s also more interactive and freedom to select the tool.

            In the class Dr Jamaluddin also discuss about Personal learning environment and Social learning environment. The meaning almost same but a bit different. For me the different between social learning environment and personal learning environment are learning environment that help learners to learn at their own pace and manage their own learning. For example Twitter, Facebook and Gmail. The social interaction is a learning environment where the learning occurs through social interaction between peers.
