This is distance learning

Page 3: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

This is not distance learning

Page 4: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

When students are engaged, they are learning

Page 5: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

We have big classrooms and in the last row …

Page 6: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

it is distance learning ;-))

Page 7: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Learning without distances

Page 8: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

UOC: Open University of Catalonia

• University without distances

• Fully online University (Undergraduate, Graduate and PhD programs)

• Headquarters in Barcelona, Spain

• Founded 15 years ago as an online University

• 53,000 students, 500 full-time faculty, 2,000 part-time faculty

1st idea to remember :

Learning without distances

Page 10: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Why do we build this type of classrooms?

Page 11: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Sure, it is our way to offer learning for all, but …

Page 12: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Finding new ideas … new original ideas

Page 13: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Finding new ideas … new original ideas

Antoni Gaudí

“Originality is in the origin”

Page 14: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Finding new ideas … going to the origin

How did Pythagoras learn and teach?

Personalization, sharing, talking… who is the teacher?

Living and learning together.

Page 15: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

2nd idea to remember :

The learner lives with his/her teacher

Page 16: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Finding new ideas … going to the origin

What is the etymological sense of pedagogy?

Page 17: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Finding new ideas … going to the origin

What is the etymological sense of pedagogy?

The pedagogue is your slave, goes with you everywhere

Page 18: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

3rd idea to remember :

Pedagogy goes with you everywhere

Scenario 2: 45-min commute

Page 26: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

4th idea to remember:

Let’s analyze the user closely: User-centered design

Page 27: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

From these real stories, we create projects

to enhance learning in these mobile scenarios

6 sketches = 6 projects

Page 28: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

MyWay project

She is about to start a new course and she is downloading all the learning materials to her e-book.

Annotation project

She uses her commuting time to read the material, underline it and to take notes on her e-book.

Imma Lawyer

28 years old Studies a degree in Humanities

Lives with her partner Motivation: As a hobby

Mobile classroom

On her way home, Imma goes on-line and checks her virtual classrooms.

Mobile widgets

Imma also uses Google Scholar, wikipedia, and other websites to find more information about her assignment.

Foreign language self-assesment

As she has not yet arrived home, she starts to answer the activities from a self-assessment test.

Project 1: MyWay

What format? Where?

Page 32: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Automatic elearning contents • Generated automaticaly by XML (DTbook)• Available in 1,200 subjects (= 60% of UOC courses)• Popularity of formats is related to popularity of devices• Epub and Mobipocket have not yet boomed

Project 1: MyWay

Page 33: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Project 1: MyWay

Page 34: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

5th idea to remember:

The best elearning content format

depends on the scenario

We can develop the best format .... or not ...

6th idea remember:

6 – Learners will define uses that we may not imagine, test and observe it.

Project 3: Mobile classroom

I’ll send anemail to the lecturer

to ask him!

Page 39: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Mobile alerts • Calendar and messages • Automatic redirection when connecting through a mobile device

Project 3: Mobile classroom

Page 40: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

But, so many alerts are molest … or not …

Video will it blend

Project 3: Mobile classroom

7th idea to remember:

Users want alerts to guide them in their learning tasks.

Project 4 : Mobile widgets

Connecting with an iPad …

Page 42: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Access from several devices • Web widgets adapted to devices • With special services like “my university contents” • Each device brings different added values for elearning purposes

Campus mobile

Campus iPad

Campus e-book

Project 4 : Mobile widgets

Page 43: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

8th idea to remember:

Offering the same information to several devices

Project 5: Foreign languages self-assessment

What's my level?

Page 45: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Self-assesment• We can develop self-assessment for several devices at the same time. • We only need 5 to 10 types of exercises. • Teachers can reorganize the content

Project 5: Foreign languages self-assessment

Page 46: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

9th idea to remember:

Mobile scenarios need more interactive contents.

Page 48: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

Interoperability of learning services• Using OKI MIT specifications• Compliant with LTI IMS standards• Working together with an open source community

Campusproject.org

Page 49: Learning technologies in mobile scenarios (By Magí Almirall)

10th idea to remember:

We can use interoperability to connect with other institutions and expand our learning tools.
