Technology-enhanced Learning
Use Digital Systems to transform the way that individuals, groups
and organizations “learn” and the way to “assess learning” in
21st Century
Objectives: From acquiring new “knowledge” to develop new and
relevant “competences”
Methods: From “classroom” based teaching to “context-aware”
personalized learning
Assessment: From “life-long” degrees and certifications to “on-
demand” and “in-context” accreditation of qualifications

Digital Systems and Services for TeL
• Digital Systems and Services for Technology Supported Learning and Education
refer to (innovative) Methods, Tools/Systems and Technology-supported Services
that contribute to solving a well known or an ill-defined or a new problem in
Learning and/or Education and/or Training, aiming to improve existing methods,
tools/systems and services in Learning, Education and Training.
• It is an interdisciplinary field at the intersection of Technology (which is “the
practical and disciple application of Knowledge in a field of application”) and
Education (which “aims to improve learning, teaching and performance”)1.
• It requires a systems perspective, that is, “a long-term view of the problem and the
solution (from imagination through implementation to retirement or replacement of
the solution), a broad and holistic view of relevant factors (from the immediate
context to incidental and unanticipated activities) and a dynamic view of the
problem space (things are likely to change)” 1.

• The term Open Educational Resources (OERs) has emerged, aiming to promote open access to
digital educational resources that are available online for everyone at a global level (Caswell et
al., 2008).
• In response to this emerging trend several OER initiatives have been developed worldwide by
large institutions such as MIT‘s OpenCourseWare (OCW), Stanford‘s iTunes and Rice
University‘s Connexions, or by communities (or consortiums) such as MERLOT and OER
Commons (Ehlers, 2011).
• The expected benefits of OERs for learners and teachers can be summarized as follows (Geser,
2007):
• they are free to use and publicly available,
• they can be used and/or reused in teaching and learning (usually with attribution to the creator),
• they can be repurposed, that is, modified/adapted for different educational context of use,
• they can improve teaching by building on other people’s work and
• their development is a global movement and as a result educational communities across borders can be created
around them.

• According to the various existing definitions, the term OER is subject to
different interpretations such as open educational content, open
courseware and open source software (Friesen, 2009).
• Thus, OERs are not limited to open educational content and they can be of
different granularity and different formats (Lane & McAndrew, 2010).
• However, existing OER initiatives do not treat their OERs differently
according to their granularity levels and consequently they adopt a flat
model for supporting the main stages of a typical e-Learning chain, namely,
creation, publication, discovery, acquisition, access, use, re-use and delivery
of OERs.

• The main drawback of this approach is that OERs are treated in a non-
modular manner without considering
• the different levels of granularity (namely, educational content, learning
activities, educational courses, education and/or training programmes), and
• the different tools and services needed to handle the particularities of each
granularity level
• This leads to a limited organic relation of current OER initiatives to the rest
of Learning Technologies developments, which eventually confine their
potential to accessing a Digital Library of Educational Resources.
• To overcome this problem, we propose an hierarchical open access
framework that considers different hierarchical elements for supporting
the main stages of a typical e-Learning chain and we present a set of
tools that support this framework.

• Learning Objects (LOs) are a common format for developing
and sharing educational content and can be defined as: “any
type of digital resource that can be reused to support learning”
(Wiley,2002).
• Thus, one can claim that OERs are related to LOs assuming
open access licensing (Friesen, 2009 Lane & McAndrew, 2010).

• LOs and their associated metadata are typically organized, classified and stored in
web-based repositories which are referred to as Learning Object Repositories
(LORs).
• McGreal (2004) has defined LORs as systems that “enable users to locate, evaluate
and manage learning objects through the use of “metadata,” namely, descriptors or
tags that systematically describe many aspects of a given learning object, from its
technical to its pedagogical characteristics”.
• Most of the existing LORs adopt the IEEE LOM standard (IEEE LTSC, 2005) or an
application profile of the IEEE LOM standard for describing their LOs, aiming to
facilitate search and retrieval of them among different LORs (McGreal, 2008).
• However, in most cases LORs include limited explicit information about their hosted
LOs’ learning and educational context of use, that is information about the
teaching-learning process that they can be used in.

As a result, there are international efforts for designing and developing
web-based repositories of learning designs, assuming that learning
design can offer an explicit description of the pedagogical context
of use where all key design parameters (namely,
educational/learning objectives, teaching/assessment methods,
participating roles, tools/services) are formally described (Sampson
et al., 2011; Paquette et al., 2008; Griffiths & Liber, 2008)

Open Learning Designs (Open LDs)
Definition
An Open Learning Design (Open LD) is defined as: “the description
of the teaching-learning process, which follows a specific
pedagogical model or practice that takes place in a unit of
learning (e.g., a course, a learning activity or any other designed
learning event) towards addressing specific learning objectives,
for a specific target group in a specific context or subject
domain”

Title: Proteins
Description: In this unit we explore how
proteins are the 'doers' of the cell. They are
huge in number and variety and diverse in
structure and function, serving both the
structural building blocks and the functional
machinery of the cell. Just about every
process in every cell requires specific
proteins. The basic principles of protein
structure and function which are reviewed in
this unit are crucial to understanding how
proteins perform their various roles.

Organization, Classification and Storage
Open LDs along with their associated metadata can be
organized, classified and stored in web-based repositories which
are referred to as Learning Design Repositories (LDRs).
LDRs are built so as to support storage, discovery, retrieval, use,
re-use and sharing of Open LDs and Open LD templates (that is,
Open LDs without specific educational content) among
educational communities.

Within this context, to deal with the different levels of
granularity (namely, educational content, learning
activities, educational courses, education and/or

services needed to handle the particularities of each
granularity level, we propose a hierarchical open
access framework that considers different hierarchical
elements for supporting the main stages of a typical e-

support this framework

• Educational Content: This is the lowest level of the hierarchical open access framework and it includes:
• Open Educational Resources (OERs) in the form of Learning Objects (LOs) and
• Educational metadata that are used to describe the different educational characteristics and attributes of a LO
(Currier, 2008)
• Learning Activities: This is the second level of the hierarchical open access framework and for the purpose of our work, a
Learning Activity (LA) is defined as: “the interaction of learner(s) with other(s) (peers and/or tutors) and with a learning
environment (optionally involving educational content, tools and services), which emerges as a result of performing a task
following a specific pedagogical strategy in order to achieve one or more learning objectives” (Beetham, 2007).
• Educational Courses: This is the third level of the hierarchical open access framework and it can be developed as a
sequence of LAs following a specific pedagogical strategy (Alonso, 2005). Moreover, for the purpose of our work we
consider that an educational course is delivered entirely online and can be facilitated by desktop and/or mobile devices
towards addressing one or more learning objectives (Sampson & Zervas, 2011)
• Education and/or Training Programmes: This is the highest level of the hierarchical open access framework and it can be
developed as a synthesis of educational courses. An education and/or training programme typically includes the
educational courses that constitute it, as well as the virtual classrooms that are used for supporting the delivery of the
educational courses and may lead to a competences-based qualification (Sampson & Zervas, 2012)

• At the core of ASK activities are:
– Understand and Model Educational Design of Technology Supported Learning and Education,
which is core background knowledge of ASK Researchers, since it is the driver for the design of any
Method, Tool/System and Service. It captures the key design considerations of each problem (well
known or an ill-defined or a new, thus Research or Service problem definition) in Learning and/or
Education and/or Training. In this sense, the purpose of Educational Design is to define the
educational context-of-use of a Tool/System and/or Service.
– Understand and Model Digital Tools/Systems (or Technologies, in more general terms) based on
their potential pedagogical affordances. This is particularly interesting and useful, since Digital
Systems and Services for Technology Supported Learning and Education mainly rely on exploiting
existing Technologies (not Tools/Systems) such as Virtual Worlds, Digital Games, Widgets, Mobile
Apps, Web 2.0 Technologies, Gesturing Computing, Internet of Things, and how to make them
pedagogically useful in a particular educational contexts of use (defined by the Education Design).
This knowledge is essential both in [Research], so as to be able to define research problems and
design for innovative solution, and in [Services], so as to be able to select and customize
tools/systems and services for particular problems in hand.

Sampson 23 April 2014 Advanced Digital Systems and Services for Education and Learning (ASK) 11/80 • The term Open Educational Resources (OERs) has emerged, aiming to promote open access to digital educational resources that are available online for everyone at a global level (Caswell et al., 2008). • In response to this emerging trend several OER initiatives have been developed worldwide by large institutions such as MIT‘s OpenCourseWare (OCW), Stanford‘s iTunes and Rice University‘s Connexions, or by communities (or consortiums) such as MERLOT and OER Commons (Ehlers, 2011). • The expected benefits of OERs for learners and teachers can be summarized as follows (Geser, 2007): • they are free to use and publicly available, • they can be used and/or reused in teaching and learning (usually with attribution to the creator), • they can be repurposed, that is, modified/adapted for different educational context of use, • they can improve teaching by building on other people’s work and • their development is a global movement and as a result educational communities across borders can be created around them.

Sampson 23 April 2014 Advanced Digital Systems and Services for Education and Learning (ASK) 12/80 • According to the various existing definitions, the term OER is subject to different interpretations such as open educational content, open courseware and open source software (Friesen, 2009). • Thus, OERs are not limited to open educational content and they can be of different granularity and different formats (Lane & McAndrew, 2010). • However, existing OER initiatives do not treat their OERs differently according to their granularity levels and consequently they adopt a flat model for supporting the main stages of a typical e-Learning chain, namely, creation, publication, discovery, acquisition, access, use, re-use and delivery of OERs. Problem Definition (2/3) Friesen, N. (2009). Open educational resources: new possibilities for change and sustainability. International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning, 10( 5) Lane, A. and McAndrew, P. (2010), Are open educational resources systematic or systemic change agents for teaching practice?

Sampson 23 April 2014 Advanced Digital Systems and Services for Education and Learning (ASK) 13/80 • The main drawback of this approach is that OERs are treated in a non- modular manner without considering • the different levels of granularity (namely, educational content, learning activities, educational courses, education and/or training programmes), and • the different tools and services needed to handle the particularities of each granularity level • This leads to a limited organic relation of current OER initiatives to the rest of Learning Technologies developments, which eventually confine their potential to accessing a Digital Library of Educational Resources. • To overcome this problem, we propose an hierarchical open access framework that considers different hierarchical elements for supporting the main stages of a typical e-Learning chain and we present a set of tools that support this framework.

They are huge in number and variety and diverse in structure and function, serving both the structural building blocks and the functional machinery of the cell. Just about every process in every cell requires specific proteins. The basic principles of protein structure and function which are reviewed in this unit are crucial to understanding how proteins perform their various roles.

Sampson 23 April 2014 Advanced Digital Systems and Services for Education and Learning (ASK) 35/80 • Educational Content: This is the lowest level of the hierarchical open access framework and it includes: • Open Educational Resources (OERs) in the form of Learning Objects (LOs) and • Educational metadata that are used to describe the different educational characteristics and attributes of a LO (Currier, 2008) • Learning Activities: This is the second level of the hierarchical open access framework and for the purpose of our work, a Learning Activity (LA) is defined as: “the interaction of learner(s) with other(s) (peers and/or tutors) and with a learning environment (optionally involving educational content, tools and services), which emerges as a result of performing a task following a specific pedagogical strategy in order to achieve one or more learning objectives” (Beetham, 2007). • Educational Courses: This is the third level of the hierarchical open access framework and it can be developed as a sequence of LAs following a specific pedagogical strategy (Alonso, 2005). Moreover, for the purpose of our work we consider that an educational course is delivered entirely online and can be facilitated by desktop and/or mobile devices towards addressing one or more learning objectives (Sampson & Zervas, 2011) • Education and/or Training Programmes: This is the highest level of the hierarchical open access framework and it can be developed as a synthesis of educational courses. An education and/or training programme typically includes the educational courses that constitute it, as well as the virtual classrooms that are used for supporting the delivery of the educational courses and may lead to a competences-based qualification (Sampson & Zervas, 2012) Hierarchical Elements: Revisited Alonso, F., Lopez, G., Manriques, D. & Vines, J.

Sampson 23 April 2014 Advanced Digital Systems and Services for Education and Learning (ASK) 77/80 • At the core of ASK activities are: – Understand and Model Educational Design of Technology Supported Learning and Education, which is core background knowledge of ASK Researchers, since it is the driver for the design of any Method, Tool/System and Service. It captures the key design considerations of each problem (well known or an ill-defined or a new, thus Research or Service problem definition) in Learning and/or Education and/or Training. In this sense, the purpose of Educational Design is to define the educational context-of-use of a Tool/System and/or Service. – Understand and Model Digital Tools/Systems (or Technologies, in more general terms) based on their potential pedagogical affordances. This is particularly interesting and useful, since Digital Systems and Services for Technology Supported Learning and Education mainly rely on exploiting existing Technologies (not Tools/Systems) such as Virtual Worlds, Digital Games, Widgets, Mobile Apps, Web 2.0 Technologies, Gesturing Computing, Internet of Things, and how to make them pedagogically useful in a particular educational contexts of use (defined by the Education Design). This knowledge is essential both in [Research], so as to be able to define research problems and design for innovative solution, and in [Services], so as to be able to select and customize tools/systems and services for particular problems in hand.
