Agenda



Research Context: Responsive Open Learning Environments (ROLE)

•  Empower the learner to build their own responsive learning environment ROLE Vision

•  Awareness and reflection of own learning process Responsiveness

•  Individually adapted composition of personal learning environment User-Centered

Focusofkeyresearchobjec0ves:



ROLE Conceptualization of Self-Regulated Learning

■  Navigating through the learning process with ROLE ■  Getting support for self-regulated learning (SRL)

19.10.2011

learner profile information is defined and revised

learner finds and selects learning resources

learner works on selected learning resources

plan

learn reflect

learner input regarding goals, preferences, …

creating PLE

recommendations from peers or tutors

assessment and self-assessment

evaluation and self-evaluation

feedback (from different sources)

learner should understand and control own learning process

ROLE infrastructure should provide adaptive guidance

attaining skills using different learning events (8LEM)

learner reflects and reacts on strategies, achievements,

and usefulness

monitoring recommen-dations

be aware of



ROLE Technical Infrastructure Overview



ROLE Sandbox – Self-Regulated Learning Analytics (LAK 2013, ICWL 2015)

PLE management platform, learning spaces & learning widgets

Widget developers, learners, teachers, researchers (N>10.000)

Context-enriched PLE management logs (>3 yrs.)

Self-regulated learning activity traceable in PLE? Learner classification? Recommendations?



ROLE Sandbox



Category-Based Recommendations for Self-Regulated Learners (ICWL 2015)

In SRL-Spaces: è Intense use of recommendations è Interesting evaluation contexts è Improve recommendations by complete categorization



Measuring Networking Impact of ROLE SDK with SNA Metrics

Case Studies &

Findings



BOOST Approach

■  BOOST: Business PerfOrmance imprOvement through individual employee Skills Training –  BeCome methodology –  ROLE widget-based technology

■ Result: Web-based learning environment to support and monitor learning processes at the workplace



BOOST Technology Employee – Learning Area

■  Widget-based web application, developed with ROLE SDK ■  Two activities: Managing learning and learning ■  Users can easily adjust the arrangement and functionality of their

environments according to their current needs and preferences ■  Users are encouraged to add new content. But, users are not

encouraged to add new widgets



Learning Analytics

■  LA mostly based on measuring user interaction with widgets ■  Usage statistics and interaction sequences ■  Analysis according to SRL: Planning, learning, reflection

Learner - Short-Term View Manager - Usage of Widgets



VIRTUS Approach

■  Virtual Vocational Education and Training – VIRTUS development of an innovative, fully functional virtual vocational education and training centre for certified courses in Modular Employable Skills (MES)



Design Environment for ROLE Spaces



Learning Analytics

■ Community Learning Analytics provided by MobSOS –  Community Success Awareness Modeling –  Quantitative usage data –  Qualitative questionnaire data



Where are we heading to?

■ ROLE SDK heavily used in projects related to TEL, but also in other contexts (SyncMeta, CAE, ...) –  Further industrial take up tragically stopped by the death

of Martin –  Open Source strategy

■  Possible future scenarios –  Personal and Open Mixed Reality Environments for

Industry 4.0 –  Domain and community specific learning environment,

e.g. for Building Information Modeling, programming, cultural heritage
