Reflection and exchange process Scenario-based method

27 February 2006Athens meeting Through the organisation of a dedicated workshop at the early stages of the project, a reflection and exchange process will be initiated among project partners working on pedagogical design and invited experts, who will continue to communicate electronically towards carrying out an analysis and study of the pedagogical specifications for the COLLAGE service, including a series of specific mobile learning scenarios and the corresponding lesson plans.

27 February 2006Athens meeting Participants will continue to communicate electronically after the workshop towards carrying out an analysis and study of the pedagogical specifications for the COLLAGE application, including a series of specific mobile learning scenarios and the corresponding lesson plans. The learning activities will be designed on the basis of a learning-game approach, which is extremely motivating for secondary school students’ learning

27 February 2006Athens meeting Reflection and exchange process 1. Discuss learning scenarios (round tables) – Pedagogical and technological considerations – Plan for implementation – Plan for evaluation 2. Existing applications, state-of-the art – Pedagogical considerations (morning workshop) – Technological considerations (afternoon workshop) 3. Impact of state-of-the art on COLLAGE project – Technological impact – Pedagogical impact 4. …and after the meeting what? How?

27 February 2006Athens meeting Round tables Partners are arranged in four groups according to their collaboration in the project; they will discuss and plan the common issues of their work; The outcome of the group discussion will be presented in the panel that follows;

27 February 2006Athens meeting Round tables: the aim Share common understanding of the COLLAGE objectives and goals Work with learning scenarios in order to understand how each partner’s work fits into the overall picture Get to know each other’s competences and background

27 February 2006Athens meeting Which scenario? Criteria for choosing a scenario – Pedagogical and technological consideration – Game and fun Innovative Appropriate for target group Feasibility Cost and sustainability

27 February 2006Athens meeting Why this scenario? Students learn to gather data from all over around them and interpret it as information useful for learning, either on their own, or, most importantly, through face-to-face and virtual collaboration with their peers. Students, together with and supported by their teachers, learn how to acquire, create, use and re- use e-learning content Learners and teachers, can co-create and manage rich e-learning content effectively, efficiently, and innovatively. Learners and teachers are given the opportunity to do things differently than they would do within the classroom
