[publication] BY PUPILS FOR STUDENTS: EXPERIENCE WITH THE MOOC „TENSES EXPLAINED“ #imoox #mooc #tugraz

We did a small contribution to this year Language Learning conference, which happened as onlince conference, titled: „BY PUPILS FOR STUDENTS: EXPERIENCE WITH THE MOOC „TENSES EXPLAINED““

Abstract:
Usually, it is the university teachers who develop educational resources for their students. The development procedure presented in this article differs significantly from common processes: Students aged about 15 years (9th grade) were actively involved in the production of videos for a language learning MOOC, which is primarily aimed at university students. The article pursues the question of how and with what effects students were involved in the video production for a language MOOC. We systematically describe the background and processes of the development of the MOOC „Tenses Explained“ and the final result. The paper gives insights into the processes and activities of more than 600 participants so far through data from the MOOC platform MooX.at. In addition, the aim is to share the experience in the form of insights in processes as well lessons learned.

[publication] Diagnose leicht gemacht (Learning Analytics in der Schule) #LearningAnalytics #tugraz

Wir freuen uns, dass unser Beitrag zu Learning Analytics in der Schule nun veröffentlicht wurde:

Zusammenfassung:
Wenn digitale Informationssysteme im schulischen Kontext genutzt werden, entstehen auch Sammlungen von Daten zum Lernverhalten. Einige Anwendungen sammeln und analysieren diese Daten gezielt, um damit Lernende zu unterstützen. Das Forschungsfeld dazu heißt “Learning Analytics” und ist erst rund 10 Jahre alt (Leitner et al., 2019). In diesem Beitrag möchten wir zwei Anwendungen aus dem Schulkontext vorstellen, die Datenanalysen einsetzen um Lernfortschritte von Schüler/innen zu beobachten und Rückmeldung in Echtzeit zu geben (s. Ebner, Leitner, Ebner 2020). Wir nennen zudem Chancen und Herausforderungen von Learning Analytics im Schulkontext.

[publication] Learning Analytics as a Service for Empowered Learners: From Data Subjects to Controllers #LearningAnalytics #lak21

Our contribution to this year Learning Analytics Conference (LAK21) is about „Learning Analytics as a Service for Empowered Learners: From Data Subjects to Controllers„.

Abstract:
As Learning Analytics (LA) in the higher education setting increasingly transitions from a field of research to an implemented matter of fact of the learner’s experience, the demand of practical guidelines to support its development is rising. LA Policies bring together different perspectives, like the ethical and legal dimensions, into frameworks to guide the way. Usually the first time learners get in touch with LA is at the act of consenting to the LA tool. Utilising an ethical (TRUESSEC) and a legal framework (GDPR), we question whether sincere consent is possible in the higher education setting. Drawing upon this premise, we then show how it might be possible to recognise the autonomy of the learner by providing LA as a service, rather than an intervention. This could indicate a paradigm shift towards the learner as empowered demander. At last, we show how this might be incorporated within the GDPR by also recognising the demand of the higher education institutions to use the learner’s data at the same time. These considerations will in the future influence the development of our own LA policy: a LA criteria catalogue.
