NEOMILLENNIA LEARNING SPACE – 2014 Presented By John Mundo and Su Gandra EDCI 571 – Fall 2006 Purdue University Calumet
NEOMILLENNIA LEARNING SPACE Motto: Learning Tailored for Future www.neomillenia.wikispaces.com Founded by John Mundo and Su Gandra Consultants and Designers for Future Learning Needs
Vision • Prepare learners to excel in a knowledge-based economy and be effective in an increasingly global world. • Learning based on experience (real and simulated), reflection and critical thinking. • Learning in corporate & educational institutions should mirror the advances in technology both in interactive and in communication media.
NEOMILLENNIAL LEARNING What is it? • Distributed across space, time and media • Fluency in multimedia • On Demand, Real Time • Collaborative • Game based learning
Types of Training • World to the Desktop • Increased use of Internet and Computers • Multi User Virtual Environments (MUVE) • Online learning communities will increase • Ubiquitous Computing • Augmented reality enabled by mobile wireless devices (MWD). MWD’s can access data from multiple sources
World to the Desktop • This is our ever-changing Internet • Transcends geographical barriers • Both Synchronous and Asynchronous Learning • Chat • Wikis • Online Learning • Blogs • Podcasts • Increased streaming of audio and video • Difference in degree rather than quality
Multi-User Virtual Environments What is a MUVE? • A place where a learner’s avatar (icons representing players) interact with each other, interact with computer-based agents and digital artifacts in a virtual world. • Highly engaging and it enhances the learning experience. Ex: Educational Games
Ubiquitous Computing • Ubiquitous computing integrates technologyinto the environment. • Ubiquitous computing is opposite of virtual reality. Where virtual reality puts people inside a simulated world, ubiquitous computing integrates computers with real world – “Smart Objects”, “Intelligent Contexts”. • MWD’s (Mobile Wireless Device) will pervade all aspects of life e.g. cell phones
Future Learning • Learning will be increasingly based on interpolating and synthesizing seemingly unrelated information rather than learning from a single source (Ex: Textbook). • Mastery in multiple media – Audio, Video, Smart Mobile devices, Computers, Virtual Worlds, Online Games. • Co-design (students can personalize learning), Collaborative learning • The buzzwords of neomillennial learning will be critical thinking, augmented reality, distributed learning, distributed cognition, role-play, multi-user virtual environments, multitasking and media driven learning technologies.
