Creating a website on Yola: June 2015

Reflection is considered a crucial philosophical activity which enables an individual to consider an experience, analyse and appraise it, and prepare for future actions based on the insight gained by this new perception.

I judge I will gain a deeper awareness in my learning practice as I work through each module of the Masters in Applied eLearning.

I believe achieving course aims and objectives will help me develop the required knowledge and skills to become an eLearning practitioner.

Gibbs model of reflection maps out this process, by providing a structure it allows reflections to develop a cycle based on, description, thoughts and feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion and future action.

Anfuso, J. (2014). "Reflexive and Reflective Learning" PowToon.

This video examines how reflective practice can be used to critically examine teaching methods. Explaining that teaching methods may reflect a teacher’s attitudes and assumptions, good reflective practice will seek to continually question attitudes and assumptions, ensuring they are not hindering good practice. Reflective practice justifies the inclusion of student feedback in resource development.

Leamon, J. (2011). "Reflective Practice and Reflection".

A light hearted introduction to reflective practice, two novice students of reflective practice discuss what it maybe about and what they would like from it, namely for a practical structure providing useful lists, prompts and structure, so they can work out what they need to learn next and not theory driven content, and deliberate that keeping a journal will help the learning and development of your practice.

Using a variety of media in my reflective blog, such as video, images, text, mindmaps, and animation to represent the objectivities of reflective practice.

Creating a website on Yola: June 2015

Posted by Mark Maguire on Tuesday, July 7, 2015 Under: Resource: research, design, development & methods

Had some issues publishing the resource to a Yola website and getting the apps to open, after much correspondence and numerous attempts, created a website: http://markmaguire.yolasite.com/ Everything opens, the apps open from Learning bus.com and link to my dropbox site.

Hi Roisin,

Hope your keeping well,
I am having a lot of difficulty putting my eResource and WIP presentation ( both are made in Articulate) on Yola, I know it’s possible to do it because the Child Obesity project opens up fine in Yola,

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7254603/child%20obesity%20-%20a%20guide%20for%20parents%20%28combined%20course%29/player.html

But I can’t get the link where I have my resource saved in Dropbox to open up in this form

the link is

https://www.dropbox.com/home/WIP%20Presentation%20-%20Presenter%20output

and the resource is

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/77p8r2hxvd3iurs/AADiKLkWior6RqwiN6svfeJna?dl=0

https://www.dropbox.com/home/29.5.15%20-%20Presenter%20output?preview=presentation_html5.html

I think it can be opened by changing the address using https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com

I have contacted Yola and Dropbox about this and being given the run-around, it would be a great help if anyone at DIT can remember how we did this.

Thanks Mark

Hi Mark,

I checked with Claire, our EPortfolio tutor, and she has said the following:

"looking at Mark’s links via Dropbox I don’t think the issue is with Yola itself. Dropbox seems to be only able to give access to the file rather than loading and displaying the file.

I’ve looked online and it says that the content needs to be in the Dropbox “Public” folder – I don’t think he can make any folder and share; it needs to be this public one. Sharing permissions need to be public."

See if this helps at all Mark.
