Education in Cyberspace

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2013-05-13
  • -
  • Publisher: Routledge

The use of online learning environments is now widespread, and there is a wealth of literature providing practical advice on how to teach online, develop courses and ensure effective pedagogical practice. What has been frequently overlooked is the insight offered by cyberspace theory, which considers broader social, cultural and theoretical contexts within which new technologies and learning models are situated. This book provides a fresh perspective on current thinking in e-learning. It challenges orthodox assumptions about the role of technology in the teaching and learning of the future, and explores more varied and wider-reaching conceptual frameworks for learning in cyberspace. Featuring the contributions of respected and experienced experts with a wide range of perspectives, Education in Cyberspace will be valued by anyone closely involved in the theory of e-learning and education.

The Dynamics of Science

Millions of scientific articles are published each year, making it difficult to stay abreast of advances within even the smallest subdisciplines. Traditional approaches to the study of science, such as the history and philosophy of science, involve closely reading a relatively small set of journal articles. And yet many questions benefit from casting a wider net: Is most scientific change gradual or revolutionary? What are the key sources of scientific novelty? Over the past several decades, a massive effort to digitize the academic literature and equip computers with algorithms that can distantly read and analyze a digital database has taken us one step closer to answering these questions. The Dynamics of Science brings together a diverse array of contributors to examine the largely unexplored computational frontiers of history and philosophy of science. Together, they reveal how tools and data from automated textual analysis, or machine “reading,” combined with methods and models from game theory and cultural evolutionary theory, can begin to answer fundamental questions about the nature and history of science.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems, ITS 2012, held in Chania, Crete, Greece, in June 2012. The 28 revised full papers, 50 short papers, and 56 posters presented were carefully viewed and selected from 177 submissions. The specific theme of the ITS 2012 conference is co-adaption between technologies and human learning. Besides that, the highly interdisciplinary ITS conferences bring together researchers in computer science, informatics, and artificial intelligence on the one side - and cognitive science, educational psychology, and linguistics on the other side. The papers are organized in topical sections on affect/emotions, affect/signals, games/motivation and design, games/empirical studies, content representation, feedback, non conventional approaches, conceptual content representation, assessment constraints, dialogue, dialogue/questions, learner modeling, learning detection, interaction strategies for games, and empirical studies thereof in general.

Recommender Systems for Technology Enhanced Learning

As an area, Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) aims to design, develop and test socio-technical innovations that will support and enhance learning practices of individuals and organizations. Information retrieval is a pivotal activity in TEL and the deployment of recommender systems has attracted increased interest during the past years. Recommendation methods, techniques and systems open an interesting new approach to facilitate and support learning and teaching. The goal is to develop, deploy and evaluate systems that provide learners and teachers with meaningful guidance in order to help identify suitable learning resources from a potentially overwhelming variety of choices. Contributions address the following topics: i) user and item data that can be used to support learning recommendation systems and scenarios, ii) innovative methods and techniques for recommendation purposes in educational settings and iii) examples of educational platforms and tools where recommendations are incorporated.
