Innovations in Learning and Education - Finland-USA Collaborative Workshop

该研讨会由佩珀代因大学的研究人员组织，汇集了来自美国和芬兰的领先STEM教育研究人员，以扩大对教育创新的讨论。该研讨会汇集了大约40名研究人员，每个国家各占一半，重点关注技术增强学习、教育创新和学习分析。研讨会的核心是一系列简短的演讲，随后是激烈的高级别讨论。与会者将撰写一系列白皮书，综合这些主题的已知内容，并确定未来的研究方向。在这样一个研讨会上，来自美国的研究人员与来自芬兰的研究人员进行配对，因为芬兰的学生在STEM学习的国际指标中经常名列前茅，这给具有某种互补优势的科学界带来了巨大的希望。研讨会的目标是促进国家间的国际合作，并通过这样做，刺激我们在STEM学习知识的前沿提出建议。

The workshop, organized by researchers from Pepperdine University, brings leading STEM educational researchers from the US and Finland together to expand the discussion of innovation in education. The workshop brings about 40 researchers, half from each country, together to focus on technology enhanced learning, educational innovation, and learning analytics. At the heart of the workshop is a series of short presentations, followed by intense, high-level discussions. The participants will produce a series of white papers that synthesize what is known on these topics and frame future research directions. The pairing of researchers from the US with those from Finland, a nation whose students regularly rank at the top in international measures of STEM learning, in such a workshop holds great promise as scientific communities with somewhat complementary strengths come together. The goal of the workshop is to foster international collaboration between nations and, by so doing, to spur the production of proposals at the frontiers of our knowledge of STEM learning.
