1. Technology and the Grand Challenge for Future LearningPeter Scott, Fridolin Wild

2. WHO ARE WE?

3. We are a group of people who are preparing the next break through in technology enhanced learning foto: ESA

4. SO WHAT?

5. 5 Million EUR from the European Union, 6.4 Million EUR in total. Well, we got substantial funding from the European Commission to (re-)structure the European Research Area in TEL.

8. AND LOTS OF FRIENDS :)

9. In fact, we have been spending two years now making lots of friends.

10. We call it: CAPACITY BUILDING.

11. Alpine Rendez-Vous 2011

12. SHAPING THE FUTURE

13. WITH GRAND CHALLENGES

14. Grand Challenges Understandable & significantwith a clearly stated compelling case for contributing to long-term benefits for society Challenging, timely, and achievable with concerted, coordinated efforts Clearly useful in terms of impact and scale, if solved, with long-term benefits for many people and international in scope Measurable and incrementalwith interim milestones that produce useful benefits as they are reached

15. Which problem? Main activities required? Timeframe? Measurable progress and success indicators? Which capacities/resources needed? foto: flickr/myoldpostcards

16. Neurosciences, Technology & Learning (ARV’11) Substantially improving motivation and learning of learners by systematically using game-based environments informed by our emerging understanding of the brain’s reward system

18. Reduce the drop-out rate in online learning by 10% employing recommender systems for learning’ ‚Privacy, Data Protection, Surveillance in DataTEL: The DataTEL research must address issues with respect to data protection (or other relevant) legislation compliance, concerns with respect to individual privacy, as well as problems arising from surveillance (social sorting, cumulative disadvantages)’ data TEL (ARV’11)

19. Exploring the Fitness and Evolvability of Personal Learning Environments (ARV’11) Instant formation of learning networks One tutor per learner

20. Multiply effectiveness of your workforce With the help of learning analytics that reflects and predicts all skills relevant For having a flexible, adaptive, resilient, open, cooperative mindset Thereby putting a soft skill focus on top of core knowledge STELLAR Meeting of Minds ‘11

39. If TEL research could answer1 question for you …

40. … in the next 5 years …

41. what would that question be?
