  • Podcasting-Based Mobile Learning in Blended Learning Courses 1 Introduction
    Conference ICL2009 September 23 -25, 2009 Villach, Austria Podcasting-based Mobile Learning in Blended Learning Courses Michael Zeiller University of Applied Sciences Burgenland, Austria Key words: podcasting, enhanced podcasts, screencasts, mobile learning, blended learning, distance learning Abstract: Blended learning scenarios benefit from educational content delivered to mobile devices supporting full mobility of students. Podcasting and the utilization of various types of podcasts are discussed as an efficient means of providing mobile students in a part-time degree programme with learning content. Crucial to the success of podcasting is the chosen course design that mixes face-to-face phases with distance learning phases based on the delivery of appropriate content embedded in podcasting episodes. The type and output format of those episodes has to be chosen accurately according to the applied usage scenario. 1 Introduction The educational landscape and especially Higher Education is characterized by a significant increase in the number of part-time (postgraduate) studies. New and elaborated didactic concepts have to be applied in part-time degree programmes to achieve the teaching aim and also meet the requirements of students. Blended learning concepts are often applied in part- time studies since they mix phases of attendance in the classroom and distance learning phases [1][2]. Blended learning introduces online or mobile media into a course programme while at the same time retains face-to-face contact and other traditional approaches to support students [2]. Different models of teaching and learning can be implemented based on various amounts of blends of face-to-face activities and online activities [1]. The most important aspects of blended learning scenarios are time (asynchronous vs.

John Ousterhout of the University of California, Berkeley, designed it. It is a combination of a scripting language and its own interpreter that gets embedded to the application, we develop with it. Tcl was developed initially for Unix. It was then ported to Windows, DOS, OS/2, and Mac OSX. Tcl is much similar to other unix shell languages like Bourne Shell (Sh), the C Shell (csh), the Korn Shell (sh), and Perl. It aims at providing ability for programs to interact with other programs and also for acting as an embeddable interpreter. Even though, the original aim was to enable programs to interact, you can find full-fledged applications written in Tcl/Tk. Features of Tcl The features of Tcl are as follows − ∑ Reduced development time. ∑ Powerful and simple user interface kit with integration of TK. ∑ Write once, run anywhere. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and almost on every Unix platform. ∑ Quite easy to get started for experienced programmers; since, the language is so simple that they can learn Tcl in a few hours or days. ∑ You can easily extend existing applications with Tcl.

  • Capturing Digital Experience: the Method of Screencast Videography
    Capturing Digital Experience: The Method of Screencast Videography Dr Fatema Kawaf Senior Lecturer in Digital Marketing Greenwich Business School University of Greenwich Maritime Greenwich Campus Old Royal Naval College London SE10 9LS T +44 (0)20 8331 9060 E-mail: [email protected] 1 Abstract This paper presents a novel research methodology, screencast videography (SCV), as an approach to studying interactions and experiences in the digital space. Screencasting is a method of digitally-recorded computer/mobile screen output, with or without audio narration. Focusing on the dynamic, highly visual digital environment in which many modern experiences such as e-shopping take place, SCV can be used for videographic studies of digital experiences that are rarely captured by means of traditional videography owing to the private settings of such experiences. SCV is able to capture dynamic experiences in the digital space, opening up opportunities for a wealth of screencast-based research to enhance our understanding of digitally- occurring interactions, experiences and phenomena. This paper discusses the ontological and epistemological assumptions of SCV and how it is situated in relation to other relevant methodological approaches (videography and netnography). It then outlines, step-by-step, the methodological protocol for SCV and its possible applications. An illustrative example of using this method to study digital experience in the context of online fashion shopping is presented and discussed. This is the first presentation of such a method, offering a promising approach to studying similar experiences in the digital world. Keywords: videography, screencast, digital experience, visual research 2 1. Introduction In today’s fast-paced, data-rich, dynamic, social and visual world, many of our experiences, activities and daily interactions have shifted slowly but surely to the digital realm.

  • Identity Standards Identity
    Identity Standards Identity PRIMARY SIGNATURE The GPS LifePlan primary signature is custom-gen- erated artwork. Therefore, please reproduce it using only the approved electronic fi les. Any substitution will dilute its impact. The signature may be applied in this format when referencing the overall GPS LifePlan. SECONDARY SYMBOL In conjuction with the primary signature, the symbol can be used to show the colors associated with the GPS LifePlan. Use of this symbol should be used sparingly and only as a supporting element. Specifi c examples include: On t-shirt back, with primary signature on front. Used on pins or buttons during an overall marketing effort, handed out with other branded materials that use the primary signature. Used on the back of a business card, closely cropped to create an abstract pattern. Identity SUB-PLAN SIGNATURES When referencing a specifi c plan, these corresponding signatures should be used at all times. Some good examples as to where these would be used would be a poster or fl yer where only one plan is referenced, or for class/workshop materials for a specifi c sub-plan. On the occasion where you will be talking about multiple subplans, see the following page. THE GPS FORMULA This graphic was created to tell the story behind the GPS LifePlan brand, and can be used wherever an introduction needs to be made. Identity SUB-PLAN LABELS When referencing multiple sub-plans or when space is limited, the following sub-plan labels should be used. This is to avoid becoming too redundant with the primary signature as well provide the sub-plans the ability to be more legible in smaller sized areas.
