There have been many claims that Tangible User Interfaces (TUIs) can have a positive impact
on learning. Alleged benefits include increasing usability, improving engagement and
collaboration of students, and providing a better perception of the task, esp ...
Tangible tabletop systems have been extensively proven to be able to enhance participation and engagement as well as enable many exciting activities, particularly in the education domain. However, it remains unclear as to whether students really benefit fr ...
This book provides an introduction to spatio-temporal design that contains a description of one or two basic settings (e.g., migration and biodiversity) that includes real data sets, data-generating mechanisms, and possible simulation scenarios. Furthermor ...
The increasing complexity of CSCL scenarios makes the classroom management highly demanding. Teachers invest considerable effort to design the learning scenario and to be aware of what happens during the enactment. We hypothesise that providing monitoring ...
This paper presents how platforms initially designed to enable the construction of personal learning environments can help teachers and learners to aggregate their own MOOCs from resources freely available in the Cloud under Creative Commons licenses. Comp ...
The European Commission is funding a large-scale research project on federated online laboratories (Labs) for education in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) at School. The main educational focus is on inquiry learning and the main te ...
Classroom orchestration refers to the teacher's (or tutor's) responsibility to identify and manage the evolving learning opportunities and constraints, in real-time. We study the use of computer technology to support this orchestration task in a multi-cons ...
This paper proposes a novel approach to build and deploy learning analytics dashboards in multiple learning environments. Existing learning dashboards are barely portable: once deployed on a learning platform, it requires considerable effort to deploy the ...
Can we predict students attention from a classroom video? We present our system for analysing movement of students in classroom during a lecture. We go into details about the technical side for analysing motion of people with limited visibility, and we pre ...
In this paper, we first discuss the concept of Personal Learning Environment (PLE) with respect to higher- education institutions and Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs). This discussion rapidly confronts us to the place of the PLE and self-directed learn ...
