Present generation of learners, growing up in a digital age, expect a fully IT-infused curriculum as a minimum. So, the majority of non-digital-age maritime instructors have to strive hard to keep pace with these new-age students’ expectations. In this paper, we will share our experience at the Wavelink Maritime Institute (WMI), where we are busy in developing and delivering a 3-year pre-sea training programme for marine engineers. Integrating technology in curriculum led to seamless accessibility, reduction of drudgery of calculations in engineering problems, increase in conceptual understandings. This also enables trials of various what-if scenarios and simulations of more authentic engineering cases, which were sometimes arranged as team assignments to add teamwork and cooperation in learning. Starting with the description of the steps taken to develop a knowledge-based infrastructure for learning, the paper will share some specific applications of technology usage in many of the course subjects and also include our student feed back, which reflects some degree of success of our efforts.

http://mamilab.esi.uclm.es/ucami2019/keynotes.html
The concept of Smart is gaining new areas and new topics as is spreading around all actions in our daily life. Smart Cities are one of the "oldest" terms but the new vision of the Personal Smart Cities are increasing the focus on the living aspects of the intelligence around us. Ubiquitous and smart intelligence are converging paradigms to feed machine and deep learning algorithms bringing support and exploiting big data and analytics to improve the efficiency of our technological systems and to have a better quality on our lives. Ambient Intelligence is one of the sources of the Smart Learning and Smart Education, where methodology goes hand-to-hand with technology, sensors, equipments and new learning views where the open aspects (open learning, lo, ocw, moocs, etc.) are having a more important role as well as are increasing the connection on our social networks and the life-long learning paradigm that is converging with our future

https://www.icwl-sete.eu/keynotes.html
This presentation will show the principles to include in our Engineering studies the practical competences and to show the long way we were involved during more than thirty years around distance/online education and the implementation of practical competences, the convergence with online learning in the use of Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) in Engineering and the new way that we are facing after the main effects of the pandemic time where we should go a new era, more inclusive, diverse and personalized adapted for all.
The way we include the practical competences inside the engineering studies, problems, simulations, virtual, remote and pocket labs open a new era in those applications and the incoming immersive environments that drives us to a new hybrid environment as we are facing this in other important areas like industry or conferences. We will include in the presentation some introduction of the IEEE Education Society inside the area of educational activities and collaboration events as well as European projects like ECoVEM where we are applying some of those principles on the development.

Building up a Digital Education Eco-systemDiana Andone
Building up a Digital Education Eco-system teh Politehnica University Experience
by Dr. Andrei Ternauciuc, Dr. Diana Andone
Distance education and online learning history at the Politehnica University of Timisoara was initiated more than two decades ago, with a vision on opening up traditional Romanian higher education. And more than half of this time was invested in Moodle's challenging orbit and its development. Launching the Virtual Campus for Digital Students - ViCaDiS platform in 2007, as a result of our research, continuing with the highly successful Virtual Campus of the Politehnica University of Timisoara (CVUPT) platform, and getting to our latest Moodle-based endeavour - the Open Virtual Mobility Learning Hub, we grew alongside Moodle's ever-helpful community. Thanks to its open status, we were able to mould the world's leading learning environment into the tool most of our students know and (mostly) love. The road has not always been easy, but thanks to the well-meaning people behind the plugins and the forum posts, we were able to accomplish our learning process goals of honing a complex and complete instrument for online learning. We also learned to fend for ourselves by adapting or even designing from the ground up the functionalities we greatly required, always for the benefit of our students. Our actions have always been towards introducing, supporting and advocating the open education principles in our work, research and development. In the last months, due to the pandemic time and the complete move to online education, we performed a major scalability of our learning environments into what it is now the Politehnica University of Timisoara Digital Eco-system. This scalability and increase will be presented at the Global MoodleMoot 2020. https://moodle.com/events/global-online/

Transmedia Literacy applied as a learning framework for children with Intell...Miguel Gea
Transmedia is a emerging form of creating contents using different media, and it is successfully used for transmedia storytelling experience (Ciastellardi, 2013), where the elements of a fiction is dispersed across multiple delivery channels for the purpose of creating a unified and coordinated entertainment experience. Ideally, each medium makes it own unique contribution to the unfolding of the story (Jenkins, 2011). This paper present a novel approach to use transmedia literacy for improve learning skills on young people, specifically oriented to persons with intellectual disabilities.
In the context of the Spanish project: “Las narrativas transmediales: nuevos modos de ficción audiovisual, comunicación informativa y performance en la cultura digital” (Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad, Madrid, España, Ref. CSO201347288, 20142017)

Smart city is a promising trend where technology may help us to create new smart living places for an inclusive society. In such context, mixed reality paradigm (3D immersive world, augmented reality and
mobile app) is growing faster, and people demand new content layers for different purposes (tourism, gaming, learning, etc.). Content creation of for immersive neither augmented 3D interactive world will be an important activity for artist and designers. This paper focuses on and specific target group
(users with cognitive disabilities) and how this new technologies may be potentially suitable to help them for a social and labour integration. This paper shows the learning experience of building a virtual immersive museum in a school of special education.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

22. 3. TRENDS
P. Lèvy
Collective Intelligence: The nomadic planet, 2004
The nomadic nature of this time is related with the rapid and
continuous transformation of scientific, technical,
professional and mental fields .
Even if we don’t move us, the world change around us.

23. Points of view –> ICT decision makers
The online campus is a “fact” in Universities
Benefits for the teacher/student but….
- Growing (storage, courses, students…)
- Rapid changes (obsolescence),
- New tools / new needs
- Cost of maintenance (licensing, support)
Look for a sustainable model (please!)

24. Points of view –> teacher staff
Online is ideal for “my Master course” and for my target
audience (foreigners, workers) but….
- No time for tutoring (anywhere, anytime…), and I cannot
attend in “real time”.
- Content production, tutoring, motivating issues is a real
“hard work”
- I’m always engaged with technology issues, and I need
support, sometimes frustrating.
Look for a easier model (please!)

25. Points of view –> students
Online is good for a flexible learning (I’m on “erasmus”
mobility), I’m active on class, but…
- To much work, teachers have different tools and methods
to manage my activities. How I will be evaluated?
- Do I have to go to f2f classes?
- I’d like to use my own tools in Internet (more cool)
- The “copy-paste” panic….
Look for a flexible & creative model (please!)
