Blended Learning als Spielfeld für Learning Analytics und Educational Data Mining
2020
Der Einsatz digitaler Lernformate im Blended Learning bietet demnach Chancen in mindestens zwei Bereichen. Zum einen konnen digitale Lernformate direkt die Lernprozesse von Studierenden gunstig beeinflussen, ihre Leistungen verbessern und zudem positive Effekte auf vielen weiteren Ebenen wie der Motivation oder des Selbstkonzeptes bewirken. Zum anderen generieren digitale Lernformate eine Fulle von Daten in vielfaltiger Gestalt. Studierende erzeugen bei der Arbeit mit digitalen Werkzeugen Nutzungsdaten, wie Verweildauern und Aktivitatsprofile, sie produzieren Leistungsdaten aus digitalen Aufgaben, sie hinterlassen Textbeitrage in Foren und Chats. All diese Daten konnen genutzt werden, um mi…
El proyecto de investigación social como instrumento integrador de la praxis para los futuros/as trabajadores/as sociales
2015
El presente trabajo muestra los resultados de una investigación-intervención aplicada a los alumnos de cuarto curso de Grado en Trabajo Social. En este documento se articula una metodología de enseñanza colaborativa, significativa y crítica a partir de las evidencias de la práctica del Trabajo Social. Como conclusiones de este estudio se justifica el uso de la metodología Blended Learning en el espacio universitario. Se evidencia como con la participación y cooperación colectiva se favorece el desarrollo de competencias investigadoras, y se señala el proyecto de investigación social como herramienta que permite vincular las prácticas externas del alumnado con los elementos teóricos de la di…
Contenidos digitales y profesores universitarios: un estudio de caso sobre usos y prácticas docentes en campus virtuales
2014
El propósito de este trabajo es conocer las prácticas promovidas por los docentes universitarios de magisterio gracias al uso de contenidos digitales en campus virtuales. En esta comunicación se exponen los resultados preliminares de la investigación. La singularidad de este estudio viene marcada por la muestra, un estudio de casos, ya que se trata de cinco docentes que desarrollan su actividad profesional en universidades presenciales y online. Los primeros resultados verifican las diferencias que existen entre las universidades presenciales y online, entre otras: en el uso de la plataforma que hacen los profesores, la existencia o no de prácticas mediadas tecnológicamente, el uso y usos d…
A blended-learning programme regarding professional ethics in physiotherapy students.
2018
Background: In the university context, assessing students’ attitude, knowledge and opinions when applying an innovative methodological approach to teach professional ethics becomes fundamental to know if the used approach is enough motivating for students. Research objective: To assess the effect of a blended-learning model, based on professional ethics and related to clinical practices, on physiotherapy students’ attitude, knowledge and opinions towards learning professional ethics. Research design and participants: A simple-blind clinical trial was performed (NLM identifier NCT03241693) (control group, n = 64; experimental group, n = 65). Both groups followed clinical practices for 8 mont…
Student Performance Prediction Based on Blended Learning
2021
Contribution: This article explored blended learning by implementing a student-centered teaching method based on the flipped classroom and small private online course (SPOC). The impact of general online learning behavior on student performance was analyzed. This work is practical and provides enlightenment for learning analysis and individualized teaching in blended learning. Background: Providing individualized teaching in a large class is an effective way to improve teaching quality, but the traditional teaching method makes it difficult for teachers to learn about each student’s learning situation. Blended learning offers the possibility of individualized teaching for teachers. The comb…
Conceptualising Design of Learning Management Systems to Address Institutional Realities
2018
There is growing interest in the use of E-Learning in higher educational institutions. However, studies have shown mismatches between Learning Management System (LMS) design and the general institutional context in developing countries. In this paper, we assess the design and implementation requirements for Makerere University LMS against the overall institution context. This research follows a qualitative method (interviews) and uses case study. We employ the design reality gap model to investigate the design requirements of the LMS against current institutional realities. A design reality gap of 46 was obtained implying ad-hoc measures need to be put in place otherwise the failure/stagnat…
The Patras blended strategy model for deep and meaningful learning in quality life-long distance education
2019
Life‑long learning is currently being embraced as a central process that could disrupt traditional educational paths. Apparently, the (ideal) type of learning often promoted is deep and meaningful learning, though it is not always required to be so. Deep learning goes beyond superficial knowledge assimilation of unlinked facts; it aims at developing deep disciplinary understanding, transformative knowledge, personal meaning, emotional intelligence, critical thinking, creativity and metacognitive skills. Meaningful learning occurs when learning is active, constructive, intentional, authentic, and cooperative. Technology enhanced teaching and learning methods should prove their potential to t…
Encouraging blended learning and ICT use at Universitat de València to improve the learning process with the .LRN platform
2007
The Universitat de Valencia, one of the largest, oldest and most varied in Spain, concerned about the efficiency of the learning processes in the context of the convergence process towards the Higher Education European Space, has conducted educative innovation experiences in several degrees, diversifying learning activities.Interested in enhancing traditional classroom learning by use of ICT (with progressive blended learning introduction) has established a learning management system to enhance the learning and communication processes for the whole university. The overall goal was to build skills in ICT use in order to improve learning process quality and student participation.This paper de…
Supporting Learning Groups in Online Learning Environment
2015
In this paper, we report on the initial findings on how to effectively support learning groups in online learning environments. Based on the idea that learning groups can enhance effective learning in online learning environments, we used qualitative research methods to study learning groups (interviews and observation of learning group interactions in online learning environments) and their facilitators. Preliminary results reveal that in order to have effective learning groups you need to take care of the following online design issues: develop comprehensive study guides, train online tutors, motivate learners through feedback, and foster high cognitive levels of interaction through quest…
Measuring, monitoring, and managing for productive learning? Australian insights into the enumeration of education
2017
This article reflects upon how teacher learning is currently construed under conditions of increased measurement of student learning outcomes, and the effects of advocacy for such enumeration processes. It draws upon a broad range of literature on the practice of education, measuring learning, and its effects on teachers? learning. To help ground the analysis, the paper analyses the meeting transcripts of an ongoing, long-term teacher learning initiative in a school in northern Queensland, Australia, and how processes of measurement influenced such learning. These reflections reveal teachers? practices as deeply influenced by the ways in which schooling is construed under conditions of inc…
