Digital storytelling as a means to increase language production skills
Digital storytelling can increase language skills by engaging students in an immersive process of writing scripts, recording audio narration, selecting multimedia elements, and publishing digital stories. A study examined how creating digital stories impacted English language learners' literacy and 21st century skills. Participants were beginner English nursing students in Mexico. Students reported increased reading comprehension, writing abilities, and collaboration through designing their stories. Analysis of their digital stories and interviews suggested the process improved critical thinking and digital literacy. The study aimed to understand how digital storytelling enhances traditional and new literacies and motivates autonomous learning.

Code your own Game: the Case of Children with Hearing Impairments
To be presented at http://icec2014.info/ International Conference on Entertainment Computing
It is well known in the computer science community that is important
to encourage children to acquire coding skills and become creators of their own
experiences and not only mere game consumers. Different children have different
needs when approaching coding and making activities. Specifically, Deaf
and Hard of Hearing (DHH) children, even when provided with accessible visual
translations through sign language interpreters or real-time captions, need
customized support. In our approach we have designed, implemented, and evaluated
a workshop program of 12 children total, with the final goal of exploring
and improving the design of appropriate workshops using the current learning
environments. This paper presents an initial exploratory evaluation of a coding
experience for children with hearing impairments and the development of a set
of guidelines for improving the teaching of coding to children with DHH difficulties.
An initial set of best practices was first developed through a focus group
with experts; and afterwards, by employing content analysis, a revised set of
guidelines was obtained. The results should be useful for special education
teachers, curriculum designers and developers for K-12 education environments
for DHH. Pictures Kai Torgeir Dragland

The presentation objectives are to provide theoretical knowledge about multicultural education, develop ideas for integrating migrant students, and highlight teaching practices that encompass innovation. Some challenges for teachers in culturally diverse classrooms include language barriers, different backgrounds, and lack of resources. The role of teachers is to demonstrate respect, collaboration, tolerance and understanding of different cultures. Suggested methods include engaging students, helping set classroom rules, using simplified language, authentic materials, and addressing conflicts wisely.

Lecture 7: Mobile & Ubiquitous Learning
The document discusses mobile and ubiquitous learning. It begins by reviewing the early concepts of mobile learning from the 1970s, including the idea of a portable personal computer. It then provides definitions of mobile learning that emphasize learning across contexts using personal devices. The document also discusses how mobile learning enables situated, authentic, and personalized learning opportunities. It reviews examples of mobile apps being used in developing countries for education. Finally, it defines ubiquitous learning as learning that can happen anywhere and anytime through embedded contextual information, and discusses how it builds on many of the same principles as mobile learning.
