Mobile authoring of open educational resources for authentic learning scenarios

Abstract

The proliferation of smartphones in the last decade and the number of publications in the field of authoring systems for computer-assisted learning depict a scenario that needs to be explored in order to facilitate the scaffolding of learning activities across contexts. Learning resources are traditionally designed in desktop-based authoring systems where the context is mostly restricted to the learning objective, capturing relevant case characteristics, or virtual situation models. Mobile authoring tools enable learners and teachers to foster universal access to educational resources not only providing channels to share, remix or re-contextualize these, but also capturing the context in-situ and in-time. As a further matter, authoring educational resources in a mobile context is an authentic experience where authors can link learning with their own daily life activities and reflections. The contribution of this manuscript is fourfold: first, the main barriers for ubiquitous and mobile authoring of educational resources are identified; second, recent research on mobile authoring tools is reviewed, and 10 key shortcomings of current approaches are identified; third, the design of a mobile environment to author educational resources (MAT for ARLearn) is presented, and the results of an evaluation of usability and hedonic quality are presented; fourth, conclusions and a research agenda for mobile authoring are discussed.

Protocols and software for simplified educational video capture and editing

“…In this software, video, audio and screenshot, are recorded and encoded in the classroom and simultaneously published on the Internet. (Tabuenca et al 2014) presented a mobile authoring tool for open educational resources to foster universal access to educational resources. (Chen et al 2015) presented a lecture recording system that employs gestures and digital cameras to facilitate remote-distance teaching.…”

The Utilization of Open Educational Resources in the Collaborative Learning Environment to Enhance the Critical Thinking Skill

“…In the uncertain and complex world nowadays, it's not enough if the students only rely on understanding in using tools to collect information (Newhouse, 2015;Sulisworo & Toifur, 2016;Tabuenca et al, 2014). They need skills of creativity and the solving problem (Dwyer et al, 2014;Griffin & Care, 2014;Shiraev et al, 2016).…”
