The International Telematic University Uninettuno organizes an ICT Engineering distance degree course in cooperation with the Helwan University (Il Cairo, Egypt) since 2006. The use of e-learning didactic allows to Egyptian students to study at home or in the Technological Pole of the Helwan University and to take a double degree, one recognized in Italy and all Europe and the other in Egypt. After...
With the latest advances in information and communication technologies, learners can now engage in continuous and rich learning-sessions that characterize today's digital learning ecosystems. In these ecosystems, learning resources are pervasive and dynamic. A key challenge is to develop a scalable learning system that addresses the inherent complexity of learning sessions and cater for the specific...
This workshop will expose participants to the utility of the Java-DSP education software in multidisciplinary signal and data analysis applications. The session will be interactive and participants will use and assess an exercise that involves step-by-step online simulations using J-DSP. Examples of prepackaged online laboratory exercises that can be disseminated in certain types of courses will also...
An emerging literature focuses on differences in learning style between the so-called millennial generation and preceding generations of students. Concurrently, engineering educators have developed a number of intuitions about millennial students, most with the common theme of lowered tolerance for lecture settings. Two current threads addressing the ??lower attention span problem?? are (a) approaches...
Many studies show the advantages of using a learning design approach to help teachers and instructional designers to create technology enhanced collaborative learning activities. However, some of these studies highlight lacks in such approach. This paper addresses one of them: the representation of the flow of data in the learning activity models. A generic specification is proposed that aims at pointing...
This paper reports developments on a best description template for teaching methods, whose descriptive elements will eventually be mapped to the elements of the IMS learning design specification. The template was created based on (a) previous approaches to describing teaching methods devised by various international projects and (b) information requirements of teachers during different phases of understanding...
Requirements analysis is a fundamental phase in the development of digital tools and concentrates essentially on computational aspects consisting on the identification of input and output flows as well as processing. Nevertheless, requirements analysis is difficult to conduct when contents and relations are complex and dynamic. Recently, the ecosystem approach has been used to understand and model...
The National Center of Educational Statistics (LACES) documents a troubling downward trend starting in the eighth grade in conceptual reasoning, scientific investigation, and practical reasoning. The data indicate no improvement in the eighth grade scores and by the time these students reach the 12th grade the data show a downward turn. The downward trend implicates the type of curriculum being taught...
Experimental teaching is considered to become more and more important in economics and management, at present, there are some problem in information and management laboratories. In this article, a new experimental teaching system is proposed, which is based on virtual company, and students are encouraged to think lonely in the system, there are simulation of environment of IS development and jobs...
