‘Transparency is a dominant feature of social networking’. I think that it’s the fundamental idea: transparence is the first social step in the learning. So ‘Transparency means that you and your doings are visible to fellow students and teachers within a learning environment.’ The visibility is the second, but the internal step provides from social network. Sociability and visibility are the principle of the online learning, better the online cooperative learning. When we are transparent or visible we show what we are doing, for one way, and we show how much we could be sociable in a distant learning. But what is to be transparent? What kind of information put us visible? ‘This transparent information may include personal information about the users and statistics related to the users’ deployment of the online tools. It may further include work students and teachers provide in online notebooks, blogs, and discussion forums as well as results from quizzes, surveys, and assignments.’ But… be transparent for what? Well, be transparent have three positive effects in the learner and in the learning:
‘Preventive quality improvement: We are prone to provide better quality when we know that others have access to the information and contributions we provide.
Constructive quality improvement: We may learn from others when we have access to their data and contributions.
Reactive quality improvement: We may receive feedback from others when they have access to our data and contributions.’
Transparence in online environment is very good not only to students but also to teacher’s, because ‘Transparency may reduce the number of low quality contributions and may make high quality work more accessible as paragons for others. In transparent online learning environments, poor contributions from teachers and course designers cannot be hidden easily behind closed doors.’
This article show us the transparency barometer:
Michael F. Shaughnessy, Senior Columnist, EdNews.org, An Interview with Morten Flate Paulsen: Transparency in Online Education
This interview clears the positive effects of transparence (above) and show us two kinds of transparence: the teacher transparence and the learner transparence.
About teachers it says: ‘Transparency could reduce the amount of low quality contributions and make high quality work more accessible as paragons for others. In transparent online learning environments, poor teachers and course designers cannot easily hide their work behind closed doors.’ Teachers have not doors to close and not to show what are they doing. Poor contributions are found out.
In Cooperative learning: ‘Transparency is particularly relevant within cooperative learning, in which students are working on related projects or assignments, but not collaborating. Within cooperative online learning a central challenge is to enable students to follow the work of their colleagues. If students are unaware of the activities of fellow students, they might not make use of each other’.
It also show us tools that could show the transparence and the blog is one of them, because ‘This extreme transparency of work-in-progress allows the students to get feedback not only from their classmates, but from everybody on the internet as a part of their learning experience’; forum is also a toll where ‘actions within a social networking site are transparent. This creates a kind of indirect or passive form of communication and sharing.’, but this tool is not so ‘transparent’ because it only colleagues and teachers who see it (and not all the network, as in the blog).

This article related cooperative freedom and transparency and, it also related with NKI and its learning model. It concept of transparency is ‘In other words, students and their actions are visible in the learning environment (Dalsgaard and Paulsen 2009:1). In this context, the personal presentations are excellent communication channels where the students can gather information and determine how transparent it should be.
Transparency means that general information, statistics and evaluations are shared and widely available. The exception is personal information that the student does not want to share (Paulsen 2007:62). Tuning of transparency level should take into consideration what kind of information it is useful and interesting to share with others and what information students would be proud to share others.’
Share information, tasks, and make visible its work is the way of being transparent in network learning.
Teaching as transparent learning, http://www.connectivism.ca/
The experience of being a transparent learner – on blogs, wikis, and Twitter – is a way to express ideas and have feedback. Having feedback we could be constructive in the learn and using transparence in learn we are ‘not proclaim what (we) know, but rather to engage and share with others as they explore and come to understand technology and related trends’. Share is the result of transparence. ‘Social technology – such as Twitter, blogs, Facebook – opens the door to sharing the process of learning, not only the final product.’
MortenFP, Transparency for Cooperation, Toonlet
This is a great learning object that show us the principal point of the transparence in cooperation and they are: personal identification; the learning process put in blog, notebooks, assignments. The fan number and friends show us the transparency and improve the quality of the learning show us the fails.
D. Randy Garrison, Terry Anderson, E-learning in the 21st century: a framework for research and practice
This is a book about e-learning. In the show pages it talks about something interesting: social presence. This is an interesting thing when we talk about online learning because when we are in this kind of learn we aren’t in a presence learn, however we are in a social environment and this environment (virtual) ask us transparence, because it put us in interactivity in the learn process, so it take us to create a community and this community is a social and a learn association with some people with the same interests, because ‘a sense of isolation or of not being connect will not encourage or support critical inquiry, nor it will engender intrinsic interest and motivation resulting from a share experience that provides acknowledgement and a sense of accomplishment’. This means that online learn without share or make accomplishment is not having a real learn.
In this slide we see the student benefits, in special the sharing information, the make visible in a community online as also the institutional benefits. It also talks about the risks (the ethic risks of too much transparence), as well: ‘inappropriate content; copyright issues; criticism from dissatisfied students; students who expose too much information’. It inform us how NKI solves this potencial problem.
This slidesahare gives us lot’s of information of learning experience online and in a slide it tell us what means online transparence, and the most important words are: ‘the ability to view and share thought’s, actions, resources, ideas and interest with others’. So e-learning experience could be very good if there was two things: cooperativism and transparence.
This is an example that puts all is tonic in Web 2.0. This video show us that all of the power in transparency is interactive tools. Web 2.0 (interactive tools) is the big advantage in the transparence because blogs, web page…, means be transparent and show our learning to all (this tolls put us in the open network)
This is a scream cast and show us what is transparence in online education. It show us the online transparence in MPEL(3) in Universidade Aberta (it’s big advantage is to give us an example in our country, in a public university to promote the visibility and the transparence – that give us freedom in cooperative learning -)
In conclusion I can say:
1) Online transparence relieves from a social presence - that begins in personal information until network tasks -;
2) Transparence is dominant from a social network – puts visible the work of what we are doing -;
3) Transparence is particularly relevant within cooperative learning - students follow the work of their colleagues, share and learn one of which others -;
4) There are several tools - web 2.0 - that improves transparence - forums, blogs, assignments, twitter... -;
5) Students benefits in being transparent are: sharing information, the feedback from their colleagues, teachers and the online community, and, make them visible in a online community;
6) Institutional benefits are: became transparent the learning process.
7) Teacher / the learning process benefits: ‘Transparency could reduce the amount of low quality contributions and make high quality work more accessible as paragons for others. In transparent online learning environments, poor teachers and course designers cannot easily hide their work behind closed doors.’(I couldn’t say it better);
8) The three positive effects in the learning process:
‘Preventive quality improvement: We are prone to provide better quality when we know that others have access to the information and contributions we provide.
Constructive quality improvement: We may learn from others when we have access to their data and contributions.
Reactive quality improvement: We may receive feedback from others when they have access to our data and contributions.’
9) There are some ethic riscks in transparecence, so we shoudn't have inappropriate content and whe should have copyright issues. It shouldn't have criticism from dissatisfied students and studentscould not expose too much information’
