'''Project''': Evaluation of video- and game based (e)learning scenarios. |

'''Contributors''': Fabian Topfstedt, [[User:acw | Anja C. Wagner]], Henrik Regensburg, [http://edumedia.f1.fhtw-berlin.de/cycon/index.htm Hans L. Cycon], [[User:WiseWoman|WiseWoman]] |
|||
'''Audience or impact''': Teachers and students in schools, high schools, universities, and continuing |
|||
education need dynamic learning scenarios for motivation. Some scenarios include the use of video |
|||
and video conferencing. |
|||
'''Brief description''': The use of instructional video - especially with the possibility of including |
|||
localized subtitles or dubbed audio - provides an excellent platform for presenting international |
|||
open educational resources. Video conferencing allows direct, synchronous communication within |
|||
classrooms or beyond classroom walls. We are developing new scenarios, sometimes called (e)learning |
|||
2.0, that includes video and video conferencing for educating learners using new technologies for |
|||
personal needs. In order to motivate people to educate themselves, we are also investigating |
|||
narrative and competitive structures from the gaming industry. We want to see if our video formats |
|||
perform on the XO computers with their special displayes and evaluate different video conferencing |
|||
tools to work with the wireless mesh network. |
|||
'''Relevant experience & other projects''': As an interdisciplinary project team in the context of a |
|||
University for Applied Sciences, at the [http://www.fhtw-berlin.de FHTW Berlin], we have acquired much experience in the |
|||
area of video formats (also called codecs) and video conferencing and in their application in the |
|||
area of (e)learning. Our most recent project is concerned with developing technical and |
|||
methodological skills on the use of video and game based learning scenarios - using video and video |
|||
conferencing. See the [http://evideo.fhtw-berlin.de eVideo Project Blog] (in German). |
|||
'''XOs needed''': 1-3 for collaborative testing of new video-based learning scenarios. |
