PlanetData project was presented by Elena Simperl and Barry Norton from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology at the 1st International Symposium on Data-driven Process Discovery and Analysis on June 30, 2011 in Campione d’Italia, Italy
Summary presentation to JISC-CETIS workshop for projects in the Distributed VLE programme. Our W2C project will demonstrate and evaluate the potential of Widgets, institutional Web-services and Cloud-hosted services for delivering Manchester Metropolitan University’s vision of convenient, integrated and extensible learning systems.
Faculty, Visuals, and Values: Shaping a Learning Technology EcosystemMichael Greene
Given at EDUCUASE ELI16
In 2012, Duke University's Center for Instructional Technology (CIT) began experimenting with MOOCs with an interest in both open education and campus impact. Today, faculty are increasingly interested in content mashups and technology integrations that go far beyond the average course site. Presenters share how CIT evaluates technology tools and platforms to meet faculty needs, maps the Duke learning technology ecosystem, and tests new technologies for fit. In this presentation I discuss the methods and applications used, the results of Canvas and Open edX testing (summer 2015) and an Open edX pilot (spring 2016), and the values shaping the ecosystem moving forward.
OUTCOMES:
-Compare learning ecosystems, needs, and aspirations among session participants
-Identify strategies for visualizing a learning ecosystem
-Assess methods and applications for evaluating technology platforms
New Opportunites to Connect Learning with LIS and LTIJohn Lewis
Today's students and teachers are active in an ever-growing number of group-based learning and collaborative environments. From Facebook, Wordpress, Pearson MyLabs, Sakai, Moodle and more, there is a need to provide a reliable source of student, course and enrollment information to each of these various platforms. In addition, once the students and courses are provisioned into the group-based environments, the learning tools themselves need to be able to interact effectively in order to provide a seamless learning experience for both students as well as faculty. The IMS members have been working on 2 specifications to critical for enabling the interoperability of source learning information, as well as learning tools. After highlighting the current progress of both LTI and LIS, we will demonstrate a Sakai instance which can simultaneously get authoritative course and enrollment data via LIS (using Oracle's SAIP), and also connect seamlessly to external tools such as Wordpress via Basic LTI.
