  1. Richard Noss London Knowledge Lab TEL Director: Teaching and Learning Research Programme

  2. What is TLRP-TEL? • 8 projects • £12 million • 2007-12 • Partners • HEA, Becta, ALT

  3. TEL Portfolio: October 08 • SynergyNet: Supporting Collaborative Learning in an Immersive Environment. • Semantic Technologies for the Enhancement of Case-Based Learning • Inter-Life: interoperability and transition • A Learning Design Support Environment (LDSE) for Teachers and Lecturers • Echoes 2: Improving Children's Social Interaction through Exploratory Learning in a Multimodal Environment • Personalised learning with Haptics when Teaching with Online Media: PHANTOM • Personal Inquiry (PI): Designing for Evidence-based Inquiry Learning across Formal and Informal Settings • Migen: Intelligent support for mathematical generalisation.

  4. TEL 2007-12 aims to develop the field by: • building cumulativity • developing research capacity • generalising findings (commentaries, working papers, special editions… • combining 21st c. technologies with 21st c. pedagogy • interdisciplinarity (perspectives from the social, cognitive and technological sciences)

  5. Grand challenges for TEL?

  6. Personalisation Transforming the quality of learning and teaching by exploiting the responsive and adaptive capabilities of advanced digital technologies to achieve a better match with learners’ needs, dispositions and identities.

  7. Migen: Intelligent support for mathematical generalisation. • assist students in recognising and analysing and expressing the structure of patterns • provide intelligent support for students directly and through explicit support for their teachers.

  8. Research challenges intelligent support • for teachers • in an exploratory system • in the classroom

  9. SynergyNet: Supporting Collaborative Learning in an Immersive Environment. study depth of engagement with learning, and degree of individual responsibility in collaborative tasks.

  10. Research challenge • how does the mix of independent and collaborative activity mediated by the multi-touch screens facilitate learning?

  11. Inclusion Improving the reach of education and lifelong learning to groups and individuals who are not best served by mainstream methods.

  12. Echoes: Improving Children's Social Interaction through Exploratory Learning in a Multimodal Environment combine interactive whiteboards, gesture and gaze tracking, and intelligent agent-based context-sensitive interfaces to create a novel interactive multimodal environment that can provide new ways of investigating and supporting the development of social skills in children with Asberger Syndrome (aged 5-7).

  13. research challenges • an explicit focus on inclusion as a window on learning • AI and computer science: • “Creating a robust and seamless real-time system that integrates motion and gesture capture, facial expression recognition, eyetracking and embodied agent technology that is suitable for educational purposes is plausible, but challenging”

  14. Flexibility Enabling the provision of education and skills to be deployed in more open, variable, and accessible ways, so that learning opportunities are available in a more seamless environment that can link classroom, home, workplace, and community.

  15. Personal Inquiry (PI): Designing for Evidence-based Inquiry Learning across Formal and Informal Settings • ‘with … software running on both mobile and desktop computers children .. investigate issues that affect their lives, across different settings - including the classroom, their homes, and discovery centres - through a scientific process of gathering and assessing evidence, conducting experiments and engaging in informed debate. Myself My environment My community

  16. research challenge • develop dynamic lesson plans (scripts) that exploit the technology, are exploratory, yet foster real learning?

  17. Productivity Achieving higher quality and more effective learning in affordable and acceptable ways

  18. A Learning Design Support Environment (LDSE) for Teachers and Lecturers • develop an interactive environment to enable teachers to lead the discovery of innovative pedagogical designs that exploit the potential of TEL.

  19. research challenges • change the way software engineers think about the architecture of TEL • change the way educational theorists think about expressing learning theory

  20. Grand challenges for TEL? • Personalisation • Inclusion • Flexibility • Productivity • Re-vision
