Wir freuen uns im Herausgeber:innenteam für die Ausgabe 19/1 der Zeitschrift für Hochschulentwicklung mitwirken zu können „Digitale Kompetenzen – Zur Rolle dieser „Future Skills“ im Hochschulkontext: Definition und Bedeutsamkeit, Messung und Förderung“
Zum Themenschwerpunkt:
Digitalisierung und digitale Kompetenzen sind Schlagworte, die mittlerweile in (fast) allen Lebensbereichen eine Rolle spielen. So identifizierte der Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft e.V. in seinem 2021 herausgegebenen future skills paper 21 Kompetenzen in den vier Kategorien: „Klassische Kompetenzen“, „Digitale Schlüsselkompetenzen“, „Technologische Kompetenzen“ und „Transformative Kompetenzen“. (STIFTERVERBAND FÜR DIE DEUTSCHE WISSENSCHAFT, 2021, S. 2). Aus dieser Perspektive sind digitale Kompetenzen also ein zentraler Teil der sogenannten future skills. Hierzu wird erläutert: „Auch digitale Schlüsselkompetenzen (zum Beispiel Digital Literacy) […] bleiben enorm wichtig und werden in den nächsten fünf Jahren noch weiter an Bedeutung gewinnen.“ (ebd., S. 2). Das wirft die Frage auf, inwiefern dies für die Lehre an Hochschulen relevant ist (vgl. ebd., S. 3), sowohl in Bezug auf Studierende als auch auf Lehrende und weiteres (die Lehre und das Lernen unterstützendes) Hochschulpersonal.
Der ganze Call ist hier zugänglich – Einreichfrist ist jedenfalls der 27.10.2023. Wir freuen uns über viele Einreichungen und sollte es Fragen geben, beantworten wir diese gerne 🙂
Der Schwerpunkt des nächsten fnma Magazins widmet sich dem Thema „OER-Projekte und – Initiativen an Hochschulen“ und wir würden uns sehr über Kurzbeiträge zu folgenden OER-Fragestellungen freuen:
Beiträge im Umfang von 3000 – 5000 Zeichen können bis 23. Juni 2022 eingereicht werden – mehr Informationen findet man hier im aktuellen Heft.
Ich darf auf einen neuen Call for Papers zu „Massive Open Online Courses und ihre Rolle in der digitalen (Hochschul-)Lehre“ hinweisen für die Zeitschrift für Hochschulentwicklung (ZFHE). Wir würden uns sehr über Beiträge freuen:
In diesem Call rufen wir auf, das Thema Massive Open Online Courses insbesondere im deutschsprachigen Raum aus allen Perspektiven zu betrachten. Folgende Fragen können als Anregungen genommen werden, sind aber keinesfalls vollständig:
Die Deadline für Einreichungen ist der 28.10.2022 -> hier geht es zum Call for Papers.

I would like to invite you to a Special Issue about „Innovative Technologies in Education“.
Dear Colleagues,
In the current situation of a worldwide pandemic, the use of digital technologies in education is not only a hot topic but simply a necessity. Due to the lockdown of schools and universities over an extended period of time, teachers had no alternative other than to use such technologies. On the one hand, we were able to see how education can work even in such a situation. On the other hand, we also witnessed the lack in skills needed to deliver high quality digital lectures.
Under these circumstances, we are today living in a world where teaching and learning are strongly influenced by technologies. For tomorrow, digital education can no longer be neglected. We must build upon these new circumstances to improve education as much as possible.
For this Special Issue, we are seeking contributions addressing the following research questions, but the list is by no means exhaustive:
– What is the influence of digital technologies on education?
– What are the future trends of innovative technologies in education?
– What are examples of how innovative technologies can be used in education?
– How can digital technologies contribute to high quality education?
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 October 2022.

There is a new book project we would like to invite interested authors named „Learning with Technologies in Learning“
In six sections (see sections’ calls for chapters), this edited volume aims to contribute to the discussion about how to agree upon standards to design and organize learning with technologies, how to streamline future developments using online delivery, multimedia content as well as machine learning in educational settings in higher education and respective institutions, and how to put respective measures for quality assurance and validation processes into practice. This work will present a rich resource for contemporary and future design considerations in technology supported higher education.
We plan to publish this book in the first half of 2022 in Springer publishing house (Cham). At this point, we are in negotiations about the book with the publisher and expect a final decision by and contract signing with Springer by mid-April. Nevertheless, not to lose time, we start our work already now and invite you to participate with your valued knowledge and experience by submitting an abstract:
– Call for Paper publication: March 31, 2021
– Chapter manuscript proposals due (2-page abstract): April 30, 2021
– Feedback and manuscript invitation (pending publisher decision): May 15, 2021
– Full chapter manuscripts due: September 15, 2021
– Notification of reviewers’ feedback: October 15, 2021
– Final chapter manuscript submission: October 29, 2021
– Notification of final decision: November 15, 2021

We are happy to announce that the OpenCast Summit 2021 will be take place between 6th and 9th April 2021 completly online and we are part of the organisation of the even.
The websit now is online and the Call for Proposals is open till 22nd of February
I am very happy that 7th EMOOCs conference will be held in Potsdam next year – in June 2021. Together with Anja Lorenz I will chair the exeperience track and if possible I would love to see you on site.
Now the Call for Papers is online and we invite you to participate:
The Experience Track sessions will provide participants with the opportunity to debate and learn more about the role, current trends and future directions that MOOCs are taking to continue their online learning delivery in Higher Education. The track will bring together diverse stakeholders to discuss four important areas around MOOCs. First, by discussing best practices in MOOC production processes, quality assurance, with emphasis on sustainable models that address the issue of certification and credentialing. A second focus is on the incorporation of pedagogy and MOOC design elements that can bring rich learning experiences, as well as new innovative teaching and learning models that can match the expectations of the stakeholders. Third, we also invite contributions that reimagine and bring new affordances to the role of technology in MOOCs, such as the development or use of new virtual learning environments and social spaces, interactive and interoperable learning objects, immersive and wearable technologies, or techniques such as a gamification, and how all of these impact student engagement and learning outcomes. Last, the multiple roles of analytics within the MOOC ecosystem, for example to systematically optimize production or measure quality, to quantify the effectiveness of different learning designs and models in terms of learners’ engagement and outcomes, or to be included as part of new technological analytics products such as dashboards, adaptation or recommendation engines.
Find the final call right here at the conference website:
Deadline for your contribution is 15th February 2021.
We are very happy, that we can announce a Call for Papers for a Special Issue on „Computational Thinking“ for the open access journal „future internet„. Of course we would love, if you find some time to make a contribution.
Most important: Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 July 2020
