The Open IT Research Project
Open IT Research Project
• Research project between the University of Applied Sciences Weserbergland (HSW) and the Technical University Darmstadt (2015-2018)
• Research focus is on the crediting of vocational training for academic studies in the sector of IT
• Research result should be special part-time academic offers (Bachelor/Master) for IT practitioner with a background from the field of IHK training (Fachinformatiker, IT Specialist , Operative Professional)
• Study participants needs to be trained in advanced in academic basics
E-Learning for Open IT
• For the new target group bridging courses are required within the subjects of Mathematics, Business/IT-Administration and Project Management
• The bridging focuses on beginner courses and should be used in addition to match students and requirements
• Student project (2015/2016) to review the existing technology for the production of video content
• Reproduction of existing Learning Nuggets
Learning Nuggets
What is a Learning Nugget
• A Learning Nugget is a small learning unit– Focus on a small aspect of a topic– Also known as a micro learning content– Explains an aspect in detail– Maybe received as part of subscription learning– Duration period should be between 3-7 minutes
• Learning Nuggets can be independent or related to other Learning Nuggets (a course)
How we use Learning Nuggets
• The HSW uses a duration time of 7-15 minutes for their videos– replacement of fixed topics with Learning Nuggets
(Flipped Classroom approach/Virtual flipped classroom approach)
• Focus is not only on the transfer of knowledge; we are focussing on a confirmation approach of existing knowlegde
• Supported by E-Examinations
Technology I
T1: Microphone & Webcam
Assumptions/Learnings:• Sound quality is important for the duration rate– Students are listening to the video (and not mainly
watching them)
• A view on the lecturer increase the duration rate of a Learning Nugget– Interaction – I can see what is happening– „Face2Face“ – I can see how is speaking– This does not mean that the speaker has always to be in
the video
T1: Microphone & Webcam
Recommended Hardware:• Standard WebCam or external WebCam – i. E. from Logitech/Microsoft (PnP-Experts)– 1080p Solution/25 Fps is recommended– Maybe use an additional tripod to increase the distance
• Internal Microphone is not recommended– Headset or additional table Microphone (remember the
ambient noise and the directivity you need)
Practical Part I
Creating a small learning nugget
Creating a Learning Nugget
• What do I want/need to transfer?• What CI/CD do I have to follow/use (Template)?• Do any legal restrictions apply?– Which images do I use?– Do I use internal information?
• How can the content be presented?– Don’t be to offensive or improper– Rethink your personal behavior– But(!) remember your target group
• How many time do I have (Storytelling)?
WHAT IS A LEARNING NUGGET?E-Learning Basics:
What is a Learning Nugget?
• A Learning Nugget is a small learning unit– Focus on a small aspect of a topic– Also known as a micro learning content– Explains an aspect in detail– Maybe received as part of subscription learning– Duration period should be between 3-7 minutes
• Learning Nuggets can be independent or related to other Learning Nuggets (a course)
Learning Nuggets can be used for:
• For Teachers and Lectures– Replacement of PowerPointPresentations (Flipped
Classroom/Inverted Classroom)– Repeating of basic or providing of additional
information• For Employee Content Development– Temporary Replacement/Internal Training– Knowledge Sharing
Thank you for your attention
... Time for Camtasia/Cutting ...
Can it be better?
Technology II
T2: Studio and Production Setup
• Let‘s setup an small studio...
This might include:A GreenScreenA dedicated Audio ConnectionCamera (HDMI)Additional Lightning (don‘t forget the
clothespin)
Practical Part II

PRODUCTION DETAILS(HINTS, ISSUES AND CHANCES...)
Storytelling & Production
• Use a story or use case which helps you recipients to identify them with your videos (like an additional practical work)
• Keep it short and keep it simple• Know the time you need and the time you can
use (a long video increase the dropout rate)• Work rapid/standardized if possible• Reproduce instead of „work around“
Keying & Spill
• Keying Inverted Mask/Inverted Edge• Spill Right lightning/Color Setting

Transitions & Design
• Use the right transitions for your Learning Nugget (Black or White Screen)
• Work TV and target group oriented• Setup a standard template together with the
marketing department and stakeholders / producers to fulfil the Corporate Identity
• Select the right color intension if possible or needed
Technology III
T3: The correct application
During our research project we reevaluated the used application for the production of Learning Nuggets. We tested:• Solutions by Magix (Video Deluxe)• Solutions by TechSmith (Studio)• Solutions by Adobe (Premiere, After Effects)
Offers by Magix
Positive: - Low Price- Easy of use
Negative:- Standard Keying (Basic version)- Transitions might be hard to set- Limited functionality
TechSmith Camtasia Studio
Positive: - Comparable Low Price- Easy of use- Focus on Rapid Video Production
Negative:- Issues with media formats- Possible issues with long videos/movies- Working with text is a fussy job
Adobe Premiere
Positive: - Works perfectly with everykind of media - Excellent for on-demand cutting- Integration within the Adobe world
Negative:- Price - Usability/Operation- Keying is not the same quality as After Effects
Adobe After Effects
Positive: - Works perfectly with everykind of media- Excellent support via additional plugins- Integration within Adobe/Photoshop
Negative:- Price - Usability/Operation- Hardware Requirements
• You might wanna look on the following applications for animations: – PowerPoint– Prezi– VideoScripe
