  1. 21. A Design and Development Approach for Deploying Web and Mobile Applications to Support Collaborative Seamless Learning Activities

    Author : Dan Kohen-Vacs; Marcelo Milrad; Marc Jansen; Miky Ronen; Alejandra Martínez Monés; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Seamless Learning; Collaborative Seamless Learning; Seamless Learning; Mobile Learning; Media Technology; Medieteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis I address challenges related to the design, development anddeployment of web and mobile technologies used to support CollaborativeSeamless Learning (CSL) activities practiced across a variety of learningcontexts. The scientific publications at the core of this thesis offer adescription of the research I have performed over the last five years, andcomprise studies involving several hundred users. READ MORE

  2. 22. Information and Communication Technology in Teacher Education : Thinking and learning in computer‐supported social practice

    Author : Evode Mukama; Sven Andersson; Gunilla Jedeskog; Ingrid Andersson; Roger Säljö; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Collaborative learning; critical reflection; ICT; learning conditions; mediating tool; multilingual setting; Rwanda; teacher education; Education; Pedagogik;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to investigate how new knowledge can be developed in computer-supported social practice. Participants were selected from newly qualified secondary school teachers and student teachers at a higher education institution in Rwanda. READ MORE

  3. 23. Dementia and learning : The use of tablet computers in joint activities

    Author : Elias Ingebrand; Lars-Christer Hydén; Christina Samuelsson; Ray Wilkinson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dementia; Situated learning; Conversation analysis; Collaboration; Scaffolding; Demens; Situerat lärande; Samtalsanalys; Samarbete; Stöttande;

    Abstract : Living with dementia is generally associated with terms such as loss, confusion, and dependency; not development, agency and collaboration. Contributing to a growing body of research that acknowledges the remaining abilities of people living with dementia, and how they cope with challenges in their everyday lives, this thesis concerns a topic habitually framed by negative presumptions, namely learning.

  4. 24. Learning Behavior Trees for Collaborative Robotics

    Author : Matteo Iovino; Christian Smith; Karinne Ramírez-Amaro; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Collaborative Robotics; Behavior Trees; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to address the challenge of generating task plans for robots in industry-relevant scenarios. With the increase in small-batch production, companies require robots to be reprogrammed frequently for new tasks. However, maintaining a team of operators with specific programming skills is only cost-efficient for large-scale production. READ MORE

  5. 25. Designing Interactive Learning Environments to Support Learners’ Understanding in Complex Domains

    Author : Marcelo Milrad; Växjö universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; interactive learning environments; complex domains; social constructivism; collaborative learning; construction kits; system dynamics simulations; collaborative modelling tools.; Information technology; Informationsteknologi; Cognitive science; Kognitionsvetenskap; Media Technology; Media Technology;

    Abstract : This dissertation focuses on the design of interactive learning environments (ILEs) to support learning in complex domains. Previous research efforts in this field indicate that we lack a well-articulated design framework with sufficient detail to take us from a socially-situated, problem-based, collaborative learning perspective to the design of a particular learning environment for a particular subject domain.
