Educating Engineers for Future Industrial Revolutions


Book Description

This book contains papers in the fields of engineering pedagogy education, public–private partnership and entrepreneurship education, research in engineering pedagogy, evaluation and outcomes assessment, Internet of Things & online laboratories, IT & knowledge management in education and real-world experiences. We are currently witnessing a significant transformation in the development of education and especially post-secondary education. To face these challenges, higher education has to find innovative ways to quickly respond to these new needs. There is also pressure by the new situation in regard to the Covid pandemic. These were the aims connected with the 23rd International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning (ICL2020), which was held online by University of Technology Tallinn, Estonia from 23 to 25 September 2020. Since its beginning in 1998, this conference is devoted to new approaches in learning with a focus on collaborative learning. Nowadays the ICL conferences are a forum of the exchange of relevant trends and research results as well as the presentation of practical experiences in Learning and Engineering Pedagogy. In this way, we try to bridge the gap between ‘pure’ scientific research and the everyday work of educators. Interested readership includes policymakers, academics, educators, researchers in pedagogy and learning theory, school teachers, learning industry, further and continuing education lecturers, etc.




Game-Based Assessment Revisited


Book Description

The capabilities and possibilities of emerging game-based learning technologies bring about a new perspective of learning and instruction. This, in turn, necessitates alternative ways to assess the kinds of learning that are taking place in the game-based environments. The field has been broadening the focus of assessment in game environments (i.e., what we measure), developing processes and methodologies that go beyond psychometrics practices (i.e., how we go about assessment in games), and implementing the game-based assessment (GBA) in real contexts. The current state of the field calls for a revisit of this topic to understand what we have learned from the research on this topic, and how the GBA work changed how the field thinks about assessment beyond game environments. Accordingly, this comprehensive volume covers the current state of research, methodology, and technology of game-based assessment. It features four major themes: what we are measuring in games, how GBA has influenced how people do assessment beyond games, new methods and practices, and implementations of GBA. The audience for this volume includes researchers, graduate students, teachers, and professional practitioners in the areas of education, instructional design, educational psychology, academic and organizational development, and instructional technology.




Visualizations and Dashboards for Learning Analytics


Book Description

This edited volume fills the gaps in existing literature on visualization and dashboard design for learning analytics. To do so, it presents critical tips to stakeholders and acts as guide to efficient implementation. The book covers the following topics: visualization and dashboard design for learning analytics, visualization and dashboard preferences of stakeholders, learners’ patterns on the dashboard, usability of visualization techniques and the dashboard, dashboard and intervention design, learning and instructional design for learning analytics, privacy and security issues about the dashboard, and future directions of visualization and dashboard design. This book will be of interest to researchers with interest in learning analytics and data analytics, teachers and students in higher education institutions and instructional designers, as it includes contributions from a wide variety of educational and psychological researchers, engineers, instructional designers, learning scientists, and computer scientists interested in learning analytics.




Advanced Concepts, Methods, and Applications in Semantic Computing


Book Description

Semantic computing is critical for the development of semantic systems and applications that must utilize semantic analysis, semantic description, semantic interfaces, and semantic integration of data and services to deliver their objectives. Semantic computing has enormous capabilities to enhance the efficiency and throughput of systems that are based on key emerging concepts and technologies such as semantic web, internet of things, blockchain technology, and knowledge graphs. Thus, research that expounds advanced concepts, methods, technologies, and applications of semantic computing for solving challenges in real-world domains is vital. Advanced Concepts, Methods, and Applications in Semantic Computing is a scholarly reference book that provides a sound theoretical foundation for the application of semantic methods, concepts, and technologies for practical problem solving. It is designed as a comprehensive and reliable resource on how semantic-oriented approaches can be used to aid new emergent technologies and tackle real-world problems. Covering topics that include deep learning, machine learning, blockchain technology, and semantic web services, this book is ideal for professionals, academicians, researchers, and students working in the field of semantic computing in various disciplines, including but not limited to software engineering, systems engineering, knowledge engineering, electronic commerce, computer science, and information technology.
