How can the design of educational technologies affect graduate students' epistemologies about learning?

چکیده
This paper describes a course in which graduate students learn practical and theoretical aspects of educational-design. The course was enacted with 14 students in education. Outcomes illustrate tensions between students' professed beliefs about learning and their actual design practices in four dimensions that characterize the technologies they designed: Learner-activity, Collaboration, Autonomy, and Content-accessibility. By peer-negotiating of these tensions, students developed their skills to design educational-technologies and increased the coherence of their epistemological understanding.

متن کاملHow Neurofeedback could affect Working Memory and Processing Speed among Girl Students with Learning Disabilities
Background: Learning disabilities (LDs) are diagnosed in children impaired in the academic skills of reading, writing, and/or mathematics. Children with LDs usually exhibit a slower resting-state electroencephalogram (EEG), corresponding to a neurodevelopmental lag. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of neurofeedback treatment on working memory and processing speed among g...
متن کاملHow to design educational technologies?: the development of an instructional-model
The potential of design to support learning has been documented for a wide range of ages. In this research we explore the added value of engaging learners in a design process, with a target audience that received little attention in the learning-by-design literature, namely, graduate students in education. Our exploration of student learning is conducted as a designbased research study, with st...
متن کاملInforming eLearning software development processes with the student experience of learning
Technologies that support eLearning are typically developed following the same methodologies used to develop non-educational software systems. As a consequence, the principles underpinning the design of these systems are not mediated by how the students experience the technologies in pursuit of their learning outcomes. Students as users have unique requirements and a unique user experience sinc...
