Digitale Lehre an und rund um der Technischen Universität Graz
Im Rahmen unserer Vorlesung „Mobile Applications 2016“ wurde eine App zum Kennenlernen der Welt erstellt:
Level up your geography skills in the most fun and engaging way: with GeoQuizz+
- Take the challenge and identify countries by their flags or their outlines.
- Guess the location of cities as accurate as possible
FEATURES:
- 254 Flags
- 229 Country borders
- 1673 Cities, Towns or Villages distirbuted in over 200 Countries
- Switch continents for the game
- Zoomable map in position quiz
Im Rahmen unserer Vorlesung „Mobile Applications 2016“ hat man eine App zum Schritt zählen erstellt:
StepForward uses the built-in motion sensor in your iPhone to track your daily and weekly step activity. The track data is then used to present the appropriate information you need in order to keep up to your goals. For every step you take, you get one step closer to earn achievements based on your progress. The purpose of the achievements is to motivate you to stay healthy and walk more, but also to make it more entertaining. This application is developed by two Swedish exchange student at TU Graz, Austria, in the course Mobile Applications.
Every step you take, every move you make, we’ll be counting it!
Sehr nett – unsere Educational-App SnailWrite für iOS wurde von „Grundschullehrer Pete“ getestet. Das Video findet ihr hier.

Our chapter about „What Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) Stakeholders Can Learn from Learning Analytics?“ got published as part of the International Compendium of Theory, Research, Practice, and Policy of Learning, Design and Technology.
Abstract:
Massive open online courses (MOOCs) are the road that led to a revolution and a new era of learning environments. Educational institutions have come under pressure to adopt new models that assure openness in their education distribution. Nonetheless, there is still altercation about the pedagogical approach and the absolute information delivery to the students. On the other side with the use of Learning Analytics, powerful tools become available which mainly aim to enhance learning and improve learners’ performance. In this chapter, the development phases of a Learning Analytics prototype and the experiment of integrating it into a MOOC platform, called iMooX will be presented. This chapter explores how MOOC stakeholders may benefit from Learning Analytics as well as it reports an exploratory analysis of some of the offered courses and demonstrates use cases as a typical evaluation of this prototype in order to discover hidden patterns, overture future proper decisions, and to optimize learning with applicable and convenient interventions.

Abstract:
The area of Learning Analytics has developed enormously since the first International Conference on Learning Analytics and Knowledge (LAK) in 2011. It is a field that combines different disciplines such as computer science, statistics, psychology and pedagogy to achieve its intended objectives. The main goals illustrate in creating convenient interventions on learning as well as its environment and the final optimization about learning domain’s stakeholders (Khalil & Ebner, 2015b). Because the field matures and is now adapted in diverse educational settings, we believe there is a pressing need to list its own research methods and specify its objectives and dilemmas. This paper surveys publications from Learning Analytics and Knowledge conference from 2013 to 2015 and lists the significant research areas in this sphere. We consider the method profile and classify them into seven different categories with a brief description on each. Furthermore, we show the most cited method categories using Google scholar. Finally, the authors raise the challenges and constraints that affect its ethical approach through the meta-analysis study. It is believed that this paper will help researchers to identify the common methods used in Learning Analytics, and it will assist by establishing a future forecast towards new research work taking into account the privacy and ethical issues of this strongly emerged field.

Es freut mich ganz besonders, dass nach dem COER13 und dem COER15 es wieder gelungen ist, den Online-Kurs zu Open Educational Resources zu starten. Wenig überraschend heuer unter dem Kürzel COER16. Und wir haben uns auch diesesmal wieder etwas überlegt – eine Weltpremiere (!). Erstmalig wird ein MOOC auf zwei Plattformen parallel durchgeführt und man kann sich je nach Lust & Laune entweder bei
Die Betreuung der beiden Kurse haben wir uns aufgeteilt, während Andreas Wittke und Anja Lorenz für das mooin-Team einspringen, machen es Sandra Schön und ich bei iMooX. Wir haben uns also viel überlegt und den Kurs gegenüber den Vorjahren doch entscheidend wieder erweitert und es kommen noch mehr Expertinnen und Experten zu Wort. Mehr wird aber nicht mehr verraten – mitmachen, erstellen, remixen, wiederverwenden, diese Worte sollen Sie einfach ab sofort immer begleiten 🙂 .
