liveblog from @EcTEL2015 a framework to design educational #mobile based games across multiple spaces

By Inge Ignatia de Waard. I choose to sit in on this session as the combination of integrating multiple contexts into mobile learning design is quite a challenge. And just one of the contexts that matter to the whole set of learning contexts. So, I do think there might be a generic framework in this, or a basis to add this design framework and add other contexts to it.
Carmen Fernandez-Panadero (UC3M - Spain) takes the stage and immediately dives in with enthusiasm. Content cration and technical deployment are the two keypoints she will focus on. Read more...

Liveblog #ectel2015 #MOOC pedagogy, patterns of engagement design

By Inge Ignatia de Waard. With a focus on why people act/engage the way they do in MOOCs, when looking at different size MOOCs (size being the number of weeks the mooc is running). Rebecca Ferguson and Doug Clow from the OU on stage, first Rebecca, then Doug.

17% Of Community Colleges Are Not Included In College Scorecard

By Phil Hill. In addition to the highly-misleading usage of ‘first-time full-time’ qualification for official graduate rates reported in the College Scorecard, there appears to be another major issue with the data. In particular, the Education Department (ED) is using a questionable method of determining whether an institution is degree-granting rather than relying on the IPEDS data source. More...

College Scorecard: An example from UMUC on fundamental flaw in the data

By Phil Hill. Russ Poulin at WCET has a handy summary of the new College Scorecard produced by the Education Department (ED) and the White House. This is a “first read” given the scorecard’s Friday release, but it is quite valuable since Russ participated on an ED Data Panel related to the now-abandoned Ratings System, the precursor to the Scorecard.

Party Platform Analysis: The Conservatives

By Alex Usher. Back again for some more election platform analysis. This week: the Conservatives. But first, a caveat. Part of the problem with trying to analyze party platforms in a 326-day election is that one’s rhythm gets all thrown off. In a five-week campaign, all of the announceables are pretty much there in the first 21 days or so, so you more or less know when a party’s done announcing things. In this election, we’re weeks into the campaign and we can’t be completely sure if the parties are done announcing things, unless, like the Greens, they actually publish the entire manifesto at once (an idea which, judging by their behaviour, the other parties find ridiculously passé).
