[publication] Practitioner Integration in Computational Thinking Education #edil20 #CT #tugraz

At this year EDMedia conference (online) we did a publication about „Practitioner Integration in Computational Thinking Education“.

Abstract:
This pilot study implemented an expert driven participatory workshop in a rural Austrian economic school. An action research approach was utilised to introduce the problem solving method named computational thinking (CT) to students aged 16 to 18 (K-12) in five after school workshop sessions. This research revealed the basic benefits of industry expert integration in a classroom setting with the aim to develop sustainable interdisciplinary interfaces that allow schools and individual teachers to independently showcase possible pathways. Drawbacks of the methods were identified, for example the high overhead efforts currently required without interfaces between practitioners and educators in place or the demanding time requirements. To create a strong, inclusive path to CT education for all young minds, these challenges need to be addressed and ultimately overcome with the support of all involved stakeholders.

[publication] The use of Alexa for mass education #edil2020 #tugraz #alexa #TEL

At this year EDMedia conference (online) we did a publication about „The Use of Alexa for Mass education“.

Abstract:
The amount of digitalized information increases day by day. Everyone connected to the internet through different devices or interfaces can acquire information of specific topics and interests at every time on every place. Nowadays, nearly every child owns a mobile device or at least has access to a mobile device connected to the internet. The main focus of children is to watch videos or play games on their device, so they always see it as an interesting, entertaining virtual friend. The use of mobile devices containing apps which deliver selected information opens a very interesting channel to deliver knowledge in a hidden way to children. This research deals with the development of an Alexa skill prototype to train 1×1 calculation skills of children in primary school in a very funny and playfully way. To evaluate the speech-assistant technology connected to an education game, a field study in was realized. As the Alexa speech-assistant is anyway absolutely magnetic to children, the feedback of the 1×1 calculation skill was better than expected and motivated us to enhance the base functionalities.

[lecture] Research approaches and methods in technology-enhanced learning #TEL #research

Sandra was giving a lecture on „Research approaches and methods in technology-enhanced learning“ and therefore we did a rough translation of our L3T-chapter to make a hand out for the students.

Abstract:
This article offers an orientation on how research is done in technology-enhanced learning. Therefore, three different approaches to research in the interdisciplinary field will be presented first: hypothesis and theory testing, hypothesis and theory generating, and design oriented methods. Subsequently, some research methods are assigned to the research process – data collection, data analysis, development – and outlined. Finally, hints on the choice of a research method are given and a typical challenge in the field is mentioned.

[publication] Die Monster-MOOC-Weiterbildung – Erfahrungen mit der Übertragung eines interaktiven Präsenzworkshops in den digitalen Raum #covid19 #research #workshop

Einen interaktiven Workshop gestalten: geschenkt. Doch wie bringt man ihn in den virtuellen Raum? Ich habe die Herausforderung in der COVID-19-Krise angepackt und ein Workshopdesign, mit dem wir im Präsenzformat bei der Universität Passau (Lehre+ Hochschuldidaktik) gute Erfahrungen gemacht haben möglichst 1:1 in den virtuellen Raum übertragen und dort mit Lehrenden der FH Salzburg durchgeführt.

Im Beitrag wird das Konzept eines Präsenzworkshops zur Einführung von MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) für Lehrende an Hochschulen vorgestellt, wie es im Jahr 2013 mit hohen Anteilen von Interaktion und Gruppenarbeit entwickelt wurde. In der Folge der COVID-19-Krise und Umstellung auf Home Office und Online-Begegnungen wurde versucht, das methodisch-didaktische Konzept möglichst gleichartig in den digitalen Raum zu übertragen. Im Artikel wird beschrieben, welche Tools dabei zum Einsatz kamen und wie sie sich auf die Arbeitsweisen und -ergebnisse ausgewirkt haben.

Man kann jetzt nicht nur nachlesen wie wir Workshops für MOOC-Einsteiger/innen gestalten in Präsenz und Online gestalten, sondern auch, auf was man beim Übertragen ins Online-Format achten sollte.
