Es freut uns, dass wir – das iUNIg-Team – eine neue Veranstaltung ankündigen können: Neue Publikationen für die Hochschullehre. Am 10. Oktober 2011 stellen Prof. Baumgartner und Elke Lackner ihre neuen Bücher an der TU Graz vor. Ich selbst werde das Thema aufgreifen ob das Lehrbuch in Zukunft überhaupt noch ein Buch im klassischen Sinne sein wird und dabei auch über die Erfahrungen mit L3T reden.
Wir bitten um eine Anmeldung zu dieser ansonst kostenfreien Veranstaltung und ich würde mich freuen beim anschließenden Buffet über das Thema weiter zu diskutieren. Weitere Details findet man auf der iUNIg-Homepage [Link] bzw. im Folder [.pdf].
[presentation] Der Wert und die Finanzierung von offenen Bildungsressourcen
Bei der diesjährigen GeNeMe 2011 Tagung die ein Teil der Wissensgemeinschaften 2011 Veranstaltung sind, präsentieren wir auch L3T. Wir gehen dabei der Frage nach, was eigentlich offene Bildungsressourcen wert sind und wie sie langfristig bzw. auch nachhaltig finanziert werden könnten.

[publication] Game Based Learning in Secondary Education: Geographical Knowledge of Austria
Our publication on „Game Based Learning in Secondary Education: Geographical Knowledge of Austria“ at this year ED-Media Conference in Lisbon is now online available. The slides have been already published here.
Abstract:
An educational, interactive flash game, iGeo, was developed at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) with the intent to assist secondary school students with studying Geography. Objective: Our main research question was to find out whether challenging online games can motivate students to learn and achieve reach better results as a non-assisted group. Experimental Setting: The application was tested for the first time in a class with seventeen pupils at lower secondary school level. Methods: Pretest/posttest experimental control group design with questionnaires. Results: The group learning with iGeo reached significantly better results than the control group in the final examination. Additionally, it can be mentioned that learning by playing a game is more “enjoyable” for the participants. Conclusion: According to the results and the general impression of the students, Game Based Learning (GBL) has definitely a positive impact on the field of secondary education, in this case Geography.

[publication] The Facebook Generation Boon or Bane for E-Learning at Universities?
Our publication on „The Facebook Generation Boon or Bane for E-Learning at Universities?“ at this year ED-Media Conference in Lisbon is now online available. The slides have been already published here.
Abstract:
No other social community has been that booming ever than Facebook. A query among freshmen at Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) displays this strongly ongoing trend too. Compared to the freshmen-studies of the last three years we can demonstrate the way Facebook already influences the communication behavior of today ́s students. Does the use of Facebook lead to a more competent understanding and intensive practice of Web2.0 applications in general? Does Facebook pave the way for Web2.0 or absorbs it by implementing and enabling Web2.0 functionalities on the platform? And what does this mean for teaching and learning aspects so far? Using a couple of statistical analysis methods for complex investigations (hierarchical cluster analysis, the principle component analysis and the varimax rotation) we tried to answer these questions and found out that the usage of Facebook already leaves it ́s marks on the communicational behavior of students. An influence on the usage of other Web2.0 applications cannot be stated with significance so far but it seems that Facebook has a repressive factor rather than a promotive one; it serves as a substitute for them.

[publication] Reading and Learning with Any Device University Content for E-Books and E-Readers
Our publication on „Reading and Learning with Any Device University Content for E-Books and E-Readers“ at this year ED-Media Conference in Lisbon is now online available. The slides have been already published here.
Abstract:
Due to the fact that e-readers and e-books in general are booming stronger than ever their applicability for teaching and learning aspects absolutely need to be focused. Besides important didactical aspects there are a number of product related challenges that had to be taken first when integrating e-books to the university ́s workaday life. This paper presents a way to turn teaching content into e-reader readable formats. On base of different raw materials according to their formats a couple of e-book output versions (for HTML, PDF, iPad, EPUB and Mobi usage) are compiled automatically. This development of adequate learning content by the meaning of e- book generation for multiple devices is described detailed as well as its user-friendly implementation into the Learning Management System of Graz University of Technology. Current technological limitations of that process and future aspects are discussed too.
