Es freut uns sehr, dass unser Beitrag zu „Learning Analytics in Hochschulen und Künstliche Intelligenz. Eine Übersicht über Einsatzmöglichkeiten, erste Erfahrungen und Entwicklungen von KI-Anwendungen zur Unterstützung des Lernens und Lehrens.“ nun erschienen ist. Das Ziel war den Unterschied herauszuarbeiten und einen ersten Einblick zu geben in das Themenfeld. Wir hatten seinerzeit auch ein Video, quasi als Teaser für das Kapitel erstellt:

[publication] Development of an Austrian OER Certification for Higher Education Institutions and Their Employees #OER #OpenEducation #research

Our chapter about „Development of an Austrian OER Certification for Higher Education Institutions and Their Employees“ got published right now – enjoy the interesting read 🙂

The “Forum Neue Medien in der Lehre Austria” (fnma) is responsible for the development and introduction of a procedure to attest open educational resources (OER) competences and OER activities in higher education. The aim is to develop and implement a convincing and recognized procedure that succeeds in sustainably promoting and making visible OER activities and OER competences at Austria’s higher education institutions. Within this paper, the development of the Austrian OER certification approach, in other words its framework, will be addressed. A working plan and first results will be presented; among others, the competence framework and its compatibility with existing frameworks.

[publication] Development of an Amazon Alexa App for a University Online Search #alexa #research #tugraz

Our chapter about „Development of an Amazon Alexa App for a University Online Search“ for the HCII 2022 conference got published.

Abstract:
Today, our homes become smarter and smarter. We started to interact with our home with Intelligent Personal Assistants, like Amazon Alexa. In this paper we want to present and give a review on the Alexa skill developed for an online search for resources like rooms, courses, and persons. The goal is to provide the users an easy-to-use way to ask for information like phone numbers, e-mail addresses, room details, … and the Alexa Skill should provide this information also in an easy understandable way. We will describe how we solved to formulate suitable search queries from spoken Alexa commands and how we presented them to the user accordingly. Other obstacles like the presentation of the search results, due to the limited context and prioritization for individual search results, to the user will be discussed.

[publication] Supporting Learning and Teaching with Good Design: Report and Lessons Learned from Learning Experience Design in Higher Education #LXD #tugraz #research

Our chaper about „Supporting Learning and Teaching with Good Design: Report and Lessons Learned from Learning Experience Design in Higher Education“ got published (online first) and is free available 🙂

Abstract:
Learning experience design (LXD), that is, the conscious design of learning experiences based on the principles and methods of the design discipline, is a term that is increasingly being used in the design of (digital) learning environments. The aim is to make learning a positive, exciting experience for the learner. This article will introduce the understanding of “learning experience design” and describe its application at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz). As creativity is a base for the design discipline, the organizational unit “educational technology” sees LXD as a chance to develop innovative, quality online teaching and learning materials. The article will show the application and results of LXD of several different projects and resources developed for teachers and students by the educational technology team at TU Graz: the student study progress dashboard, the TELucation website relaunch, and the development of a modifiable digital template for lecturer training.

[publication] Erwachsenenbildung und MOOCs #mooc #imoox#research

Unser gemeinsames Kapitel zu „Erwachsenenbildung und MOOCs“ ist nun als Buchkapitel erschienen – vielen Dank vorweg auch für die gute Zusammenarbeit.

Zusammenfassung:
Mit der Abkürzung MOOC für „Massive Open Online Courses“ werden Online-Kurse bezeichnet, die mehr als 150 TeilnehmerInnen erreichen. Diese Lern- und Darbietungsform von Inhalten für sehr viele Personen, auch aus unterschiedlichen Einrichtungen und persönlichen Situationen, ist auch für die Erwachsenen- und Weiterbildung interessant. Auf der österreichischen MOOC-Plattform iMooX.at werden seit 2014 MOOCs mit offen lizenzierten Bildungsmaterialien von Hochschullehrenden angeboten, die ohne weitere Zugangsvoraussetzungen (wie z. B. Hochschulreife) genutzt werden können. Einige der Online-Kurse sind explizit der Erwachsenen- und Weiterbildung zuzuordnen und werden von EB-Einrichtungen (mit-)veranstaltet. Die Verantwortlichen für diese MOOCs mit insgesamt etwa 21.000 registrierten TeilnehmerInnen und mehreren Auszeichnungen tragen in dieser Veröffentlichung ihre Erfahrungen zusammen: Wo liegen Potenziale von MOOCs? Wo gibt es Schwierigkeiten und Herausforderungen? Welche Empfehlungen gibt es für NachahmerInnen? Dieser Beitrag ist somit ein kondensierter Blick auf den aktuellen MOOC-Einsatz in der Erwachsenenbildung und unter der Voraussetzung der Nutzung offen lizenzierter Bildungsmaterialien.
