Digital resources in senegalese hight education : state of play and prospective study
2014
It is in the context of poverty or information exclusion that the massive dissemination of information and technology tools in Senegalese academic libraries responds to an urgent need for transformation and improvement of operational modes as well as modernization of services for different audiences, in particular students. Currently, in almost all academic and research libraries of Senegal digitization activities that crossed the rise of the Internet are being developed. This has created a real increasing effect of digital resources, by the establishment of means of creation and by expansion of access and of sharing of scientific and technical information in higher education institutions. …

The creation of a modern lesson increasingly uses open data, a variety of digital resources, electronic teaching tools etc. In addition to books, electronic teaching tools, information resources, etc., come into the training process as a way to portray linguistic information and the writers' creative thought. One of the resources that can be successfully exploited in promoting the growth of a fully developed and skilled pupil, as well as in-depth learning of the Latvian language, is dialect atlases. The aim of the research was to understand the functionality and effectiveness of the dialect atlases in lear ning lexicology and dialectology. The study combined the descriptive method and conte…
Lexical Borrowing in the Light of Digital Resources: Nyet as a Case Study
2021
Abstract The mere appearance of a foreign word does not necessarily mark the birth of a loanword, which requires documented usage by the speech community. Relatively little research has been dedicated so far to the “prenatal” stage that would investigate the tentative infiltration of foreign-derived words. Nyet, a borrowing from Russian, is taken as a case in point. Although its first recorded instance in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED3) is dated to 1928, it had been increasingly recognized in English for several decades. This article focuses on textual attestations for nyet discovered in a range of digital resources, including British and American newspaper archives, and discusses thei…
Digital Mental Health Resources for Children and Youth : Evaluation of Strengths in User Interface Design
2019
The aim of this research is to explore the positive user interface (UI) design of digital mental health resources for children and youth. For this purpose, a heuristic model is introduced and heuristic evaluation is used as a method to systematically assess 49 digital mental health resources. In the assessment, the resources are evaluated by observing the prevalence of UI design strengths defined in the heuristic model. The results of the study indicate that the resources analyzed have strengths especially in the dimensions of visual design, content, reliability, engagement and functional design. Furthermore, all of the resources have at least four design strengths, creating a good basis fo…
Engineering students' engagement with resources in an online learning environment
2018
International audience; This study explores engineering students' interactions with different resources in an online learning environment. The constituent resources of this environment involve MyMathLab which is an online interactive system for practicing mathematics, the tutorial videos, and the textbook. We conducted a qualitative case study to observe a small group of undergraduate engineering students interacting with the resources in a Calculus course. Employing the documentational approach to didactics, we identified several techniques while participants used resources to practice mathematics in MyMathLab environment. We discuss the pragmatic and epistemic value of the identified tech…
L’integrazione delle competenze tecnologiche, didattiche e disciplinari nella formazione iniziale dei docenti di sostegno
2021
Questo contributo focalizza l’attenzione sulle competenze dei docenti di sostegno in formazione iniziale cos come vengono descritte nel framework del Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK) (Mishra & Koehler, 2006), a partire dagli studi di Shulman (1986) sul PCK e intende offrire alcune riflessioni metodologiche sulla formazione dell’insegnante di sostegno considerando, tra altri fattori, l’eterogeneità dei titoli di studio che consentono l’accesso al percorso formativo. I risultati ottenuti con un campione di 1591 docenti iscritti al corso di specializzazione per il sostegno dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo e le riflessioni provenienti dal modello TPACK potrebbero c…
Enhancing social and health care educators’ competence in digital pedagogy: A pilot study of educational intervention
2021
The purpose of this pilot study was to explore connection of an educational intervention on the competence of health care educators and educator candidates (n=11) in digital pedagogy as a part of national TerOpe project. An educational intervention, Basics of Digital Pedagogy was developed by the TerOpe project’s experts. The participating educators and educator candidates of the educational intervention were recruited from the universities and university of applied sciences, which were involved in TerOpe project. All the participants of the educational interventions were invited to take part in this study. The educational intervention was conducted during spring 2019. Pre- and post-tests w…
ll TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) e la formazione dei docenti di sostegno
2021
Questo contributo focalizza l’attenzione sulle competenze dei docenti di sostegno in formazione iniziale cosi come vengono descritte nel framework del Technological Pedagogical Con- tent Knowledge (TPCK – Koehler & Mishra, 2006), a partire dagli studi di Shulman (1986) sul PCK e intende offrire alcune riflessioni metodologiche sulla formazione dell’insegnante di sostegno. I risultati ottenuti con un campione di 1591 docenti iscritti al corso di specializzazione per il sostegno dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo e le riflessioni provenienti dal modello TPACK potrebbero consentire di adeguare le attività formative relative alle TIC alle reali competenze iniziali dei corsisti, contri…
Linguistic Landscape Signs in E-textbooks: Teaching Language as a Compass for Exploring Multimodal Texts, Multilingualism, and Digital Resources.
2021
Rapid technological development and the growth of educators’ and students’ digital skills have allowed e-textbooks to take root in different school subjects’ pedagogical practices. This article’s aim is to compare two e-textbooks – A Guide for Exploring City Texts (Berra (Burr), 2020) and Linguistic Landscapes in English Language Teaching: A Pedagogical Guidebook (Solmaz & Przymus, 2021) – in terms of their technological and pedagogical frameworks and to discuss the benefits and disadvantages of using a language e-textbook which heavily utilizes linguistic landscape signs. The comparison shows that the e-textbooks’ main technological advantages are hyperlinking, bookmarking, highlightin…
