Talks at the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT)

LTRI's John Cook will be involved in a series of talks at the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT), University of
British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada on 16th April. There will be a public facing morning session where SoMobNet and UBC colleagues will present to a wider public and an afternoon session with a more restricted audience which looks at possible future collaboration, etc.

John's talks:
1. Can social media and mobile devices be used to design transformative, augmented contexts for learning? (John Cook)
2. What is the potential for the use of social media and mobile devices in informal, professional, work-based learning? (John Cook and Norbert Pachler)

Over the past five years LTRI's DILL research theme and the London Mobile Learning Group (LMLG) have developed a body of literature and project outcomes upon which John has based six guiding principles for thinking about the use of social media and mobile devices for social justice and learning (see http://slidesha.re/GYYP7X for details and related publications). The above talks will explore 2 of these principles. The trip is funded by LTRI projects: SoMobNet and MATURE. 3/4/12

Keynote, Workshop and Conference paper

Following his Keynote ‘The Role of Design and Technology in the Development of Augmented Learning Contexts’ for Brunel Univesity Carl Smith has been invited by JISC to give a follow up keynote and workshop for their Digital Creativity conference to be held on the 23 May 2012. The keynote is titled: ‘Space is the machine: Best practices and techniques for using mixed and augmented reality in education’. The session will exploit the web of relationships made possible through combining the physical, digital and conceptual aspects of space to increase knowledge formation. As interfaces become more and more spatial the role of the learning designer expands from composing situations for screen based interaction to developing actual structures and form which activate embodiment and experiential learning. Further details: 3/4/12

British Journal of Educational Technology (BJET) article accepted

LTRI's John Cook is lead author on a paper that has been accepted in the highly regarded British Journal of Educational Technology (BJET). The paper is based on LTRI's work on social mobile network(ing) for the MATURE project. Abstract and full reference is below. Please email John for a final draft. BJET is a tier 1 journal, Impact Factor: 2.139; ISI Journal Citation Reports Ranking: 2010: 11/177 (Education & Educational Research).
Abstract: Social and mobile technologies offer users unprecedented opportunities for communicating, interacting, sharing, meaning-making, content and context generation. And, these affordances are in constant flux driven by a powerful interplay between technological innovation and emerging cultural practices. Significantly, also, they are starting to transcend the everyday life-worlds of users and permeate the workplace and its practices. However, given the emergent nature of this area, the literature on the use of social and mobile technologies in workplace practices is still small. Our main focus will, therefore, be on the question of what, if any, potential there is for the use of social media in informal, professional, work-based learning. The paper provides a critical overview of key issues from the literature on work-based learning, face-to-face and technology supported, as well as social (mobile) networking services with particular attention being paid to people tagging. It then introduces an initial typology of informal workplace learning in order to provide a frame for understanding social (mobile) network(ing) services in work-based learning. Finally, a case study (taken from the literature) of people tagging in digital social networks in the European Commission funded MATURE project is used to illustrate aspects of our typology.

Event logoLTRI staff give 3 presentations at Mobile Learning: Now and the Future, 28/9/11, College of North West London
Tom Boyle, John Cook and Carl Smith have all been invited to give presentations at this event on 28 September. The event is being organised by Brunel University, and focuses on mobile learning in further and higher Education.
> Tom Boyle is presenting a session 'Create your own mobile learning objects with GLO Maker'.
> John Cook has been invited to give keynote, 'Putting Learning into Context with Mobile Devices'.
> Carl has been invited to give a keynote address, ‘The Role of Design and Technology in the Development of Augmented Learning Contexts’.
Description: The presentation will investigate the emerging practice within education that merges digital virtual experiences with physical spatial experiences. Well designed ‘augmented spaces’ should enable the creation of situations and concepts that could not have been realised with just physical or just virtual methods because they should unite the strengths, features and possibilities of both.
