G1:1 A global network for stimulating high quality research and fostering international collaboration in 1-to-1 technology enhanced learning www.g1to1.org
What is 1:1 TEL? One-to-one technology enhanced learning refers to learning in which every student is equipped with at least one wireless portable computing devices with Internet access and communication capabilities
Why 1:1 TEL? • Seamless learning space • with respect to place and people • Integration of all TEL subfields • cognitive tools • intelligent learning environments • computer supported collaborative learning • mobile learning
Why use the term “1:1”? • Arousing society’s attention of the imminent technological innovations in education • e.g. MIT $100 computer initiative for solving digital divide problem • The “1:1” term will not make sense after tens of year
What is G1:1? • G1:1 is not offering any thing at the moment! • A social network, not a formal organization • At the core, G1:1 consists of some leading research groups and labs conducting significant 1:1 research across the globe
What is G1:1? • Members having extensive connectivity to Kaleidoscope, ISLS, APSCE, IEEE, AIED, mLearn, and some SIGs • Past events were directly or indirectly supported by EU, NSF of USA, and NSC of Taiwan
Events in 2003 & 2005 • 1st G1:1 Workshop • Taiwan • 6 international participants • called Global Public-Private Partnership Platform (G4P) meeting • 2nd G1:1 Workshop • Taiwan • more international participants • prior to WMTE2004
Events in 2005 • 3rd G1:1 Workshop (prior to CSCL), Taiwan (Jeremy Roschelle, Charles Patton) • G1:1 Panel in CSCL, Taiwan (Tak-Wai Chan, Ulrich Hoppe) • G1:1 Panel in IEEE ICALT, Taiwan (Kinshuk) • Panel in Kaleidoscope Symposium, Germany (Nicolas Balacheff, Ulrich Hoppe)
Events in 2005 (cont’d) • Panel in Knowledge Building Summer Institute, Canada (Marlene Scardamalia, Mary Lamon) • 4th G1:1 Workshop (prior to mLearn), South Africa (Mike Sharples, Charles Patton, Tom Brown, Herman van der Merwe) • 5th G1:1 Workshop (prior to WMTE), Japan (Kinshuk, Hiroaki Ogata) • G1:1 Panel in ICCE, Singapore (Chee-Kit Looi, Michael Jacobson)
Events in 2006 (planning) • G1:1 event, USA (prior to AERA) (Jeremy Rocschelle) • G1:1 event, Taiwan (prior to ITS) (Tak-Wai Chan) • G1:1 event, Greece, (prior to WMTE) (Kinshuk) • G1:1 event, Netherlands, (prior to ICALT) (Kinshuk) • G1:1 event, Canada, (prior to MLearn) (Rory McGreal) • G1:1 event, Beijing, (prior to ICCE) (Ronghuai Huang)
The 1st Mission: Stimulating high quality 1:1 research • debating and critiquing what high quality research looks like • setting or attempting to set high standards for research outcomes • raising next directions of globally-important learning challenges • Ubiquitous learning, digital game based learning, biological learning • proposing an international research agenda • exploring seamless learning space • integrating various TEL subfield
The 2nd Mission: Informing global 1:1 movement • anticipating and preparing for the future • scenario-based planning to identify some trends and uncertainties in 2015 • digital learning games & peer tutoring will become prevalent • access of digital resources will be a part of human right • having a bigger voice if researchers speak together globally • promoting best practices of 1:1 TEL • addressing development and practice issues
The 3rd Mission: Fostering 1:1 international research collaboration • complementing research strength • exploring learning with similar technologies across multiple cultures • exchanging graduate students • enhancing each other’s research initiatives
The 4th Mission: Establishing a global collaborative research community • a long term goal and evolving process • sharing and exchanging research outcome beyond research papers • possibly focusing on graduate student community • providing interaction opportunities for researchers, teachers, and industry in different parts of the world to interact
Questions • How is G1:1 research network related to Asia-Pacific Research and Practice Community? • How can research on 1:1 TEL contribute to enhanced learning? • How can 1:1 TEL or G1:1 benefit teachers and principals in their everyday work?
