Dr Daniele Di Mitri elected AI Newcomer 2021

Artificial Intelligence, Award, General education, Multimodal Learning Analytics

Dr. Daniele Di Mitri is the AI Newcomer 2021 of the category Humanities and Social Sciences at the KI Camp 2021 organised by the German Informatics Society and the German Federal Ministry of Education. His research is oriented towards the question: how can we best interface artificial intelligence applications with humans to ultimately support human learning, support their goal achievement and boost human productivity? "The only function for which is AI is currently used in higher education is plagiarism check. There is a lot more that AI can do for education. I can imagine realistic application scenario both at primary school, with intelligent tutors via playful interfaces can engage students both individually and in group in learning concepts as geometry, geography, algebra, history, physics." - Daniele Di Mitri, PhD Here the name…

Best Paper award @LAK21 – Quantum of Choice

Award, Conference, Empirical Study, Higher Education, Learning Analytics, Open access, Publication

Learning analytics dashboards (LADs) are designed as feedback tools for learners, but until recently, learners rarely have had a say in how LADs are designed and what information they receive through LADs. To overcome this shortcoming, we have developed a customisable LAD for Coursera MOOCs on which learners can set goals and choose indicators to monitor. Following a mixed-methods approach, we analyse 401 learners’ indicator selection behaviour in order to understand the decisions they make on the LAD and whether learner goals and self-regulated learning skills influence these decisions. We found that learners overwhelmingly chose indicators about completed activities. Goals are not associated with indicator selection behaviour, while help-seeking skills predict learners’ choice of monitoring their engagement in discussions and time management skills predict learners’ interest in procrastination indicators. The…

Das studentische E-Learning-Projekt »StudyCore« verbindet Forschung mit pädagogischer Praxis

Award, Digitalisation

Es ist toll zu sehen, dass die Studierendenvereinigung - MEGA - (Make eLearning Great Again) - jetzt auch ausserhalb der Goethe Uni erfolgreich das Lernen mit Technologie verbessert!. Am Anfang vieler guter Ideen steht Frust. „90 Minuten Mathevorlesung, 90 Minuten nur Zahlen und Formeln – so lange konnte ich mich einfach nicht konzentrieren“, gibt Onur Karademir seine Erfahrung im ersten Studiensemester Informatik wieder. Also suchte er im Netz nach Vorlesungs-Videos zum Thema, die er immerhin stoppen, zurück- und vorspulen konnte. Häppchenweise ging Verstehen leichter. Diese Erfahrung war der Impuls, noch als Student E-Learning-Formate zu entwickeln, die vom studiumdigitale- Team der Goethe-Universität gefördert wurden. Inzwischen gibt es das EdTech-Start-up StudyCore, in dem Onur Karademir mit sechs weiteren Studierenden ein breites Angebot an Digitalen Lehr- und Lernformen entwickelt und das eine Perspektive…

The full research by George Ciordas-Hertel has the title: "Which Strategies are Used in the Design of Technical LA Infrastructure?: A Qualitative Interview Study". This paper was awarded as best paper the area "Infrastructure and Technologies for Engineering Education". Here an abstract of the paper: In order to obtain a holistic perspective on learning, technical infrastructure at an institutional level can be advantageous for Learning Analytics (LA). If personal data is collected and processed in such infrastructure, legal requirements are of crucial importance. Recent studies have examined various aspects of LA infrastructure, such as ethical trade-offs and stakeholder needs.…
