Interaction in online learning environments : how to support collaborative activities in higher education settings

2006

Collaboration promoted and supported by instructional technology has the potential to lead learners to deeper understanding and knowledge building. There have been optimistic views that any web based interaction can be educationally valuable. However, online learning environments do not, as such, guarantee that learners will achieve genuine collaboration. It seems that there are several difficulties facing those who wish to employ online learning environments as a medium for productive learner interaction. The particular aim of this exploration of interaction and learning in computer supported collaborative learning environments was to study the interplay between learners and consider the w…

Our Work in Progress Paper in Innovative Practice Category focuses on how learners’ experience use of infographics in advanced level e-course on requirements engineering (RE). Infographics are visual representations of information in such a way that information can be easily understood at a glance. Most of the previous infographics studies have been conducted in the context of inquiry learning. To complement this research, we studied how learners experience use of infographics as a method for reflective assignment and hence if the usage of infographics supported conceptualization about RE. We adopted a qualitative content analysis approach, applying thematic network analysis to the data rec…

Project-based education (PBE) gives possibilities for students to work together and feeling of belonging in a community even during distance learning.

The goal of the course was to enforce the connection between research on science teaching and acting sustainable in society. This study is based on semi-structured online group interview of the students after this PBE course. The main focus of this investigation was how positive feelings and attitude affect learning. peerReviewed

It is proposed that big data and consumer analytics collected through AI from different sources will be aggregated to have a better understanding of consumers as individuals. Personalised emotionally appealing advertisements will be created with this information and shared digitally using pragmatic advertising strategies. Theoretically, this chapter contributes towards…

The representation of Sámi people on Finnish and Norwegian tourism websites in English

2014

Tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää, minkälaisia representaatioita saamelaisista rakennetaan norjalaisessa sekä suomalaisessa matkailumarkkinoinnissa englanniksi. Aineistona oli yksi kunkin maan virallisen matkailumarkkinointiportaalin (VisitFinland ja VisitNorway)saamelaisaiheinen alasivu. Tutkielman teoriapohjana käytettiin kriittistä diskurssianalyysia(esim. Fairclough 1992, Pietikäinen & Mäntynen 2009, Blommaert 2005). Taustatietona käytiin läpi aiempia tutkimuksia saamelaisrepresentaatioista. Metodeissa nojattiin pääosin laadulliseen ja monimodaaliseen analysointiin, jossa pohjana oli Fairclough’n (1992) kolmitasoinen diskurssiaineiston analysointi. Tutkimustuloksista kävi ilmi, ett…
