Workshop on Emerging Online Educational Technologies

本次研讨会将汇集来自相关学术、商业和实践导向社区的主要研究人员，探讨有关学习技术的新发展及其在高等教育中的应用的基本问题。在线教学的发展和基于技术的课堂互动创新正在改变学者对教与学的看法。最近出现的mooc（大规模开放在线课程）就是一个例子，其主要重点是通过网络向全球受众提供教育体验。数字技术也在改变面对面的教学方式，许多机构都在试验翻转课堂方法和混合教学方法。研讨会的目标是为基于技术的有效和可行的教学方法制定一个大约5 - 10年的优先研究议程。在新的教育技术中有一些非常深刻的问题需要探索，如果这些技术不被盲目地追求，就必须探索这些问题。本次研讨会将通过对在线教育实践有效性的研究，帮助我们理解正在发展的在线教育实践。希望将产生一个框架，该框架将引导研究，促进利用这些新兴技术开发高质量、经济上可行的教育实践。

This workshop will bring together leading researchers from relevant academic, commerical, and practice-oriented communities to explore fundamental issues concerning the emergence of radically new developments in learning technology and its applications in higher education. Developments in online instruction and technology-based innovation in classroom interactions are changing how academics think about teaching and learning. An example is the recent emergence of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), where the primary focus is on delivery of educational experiences through the Web to global audiences. Digital technologies are also changing teaching in face-to-face settings, with experiments at many institutions in flipped classroom approaches and blended instructional methods.The goal of the workshop is to generate a rough 5 - 10 year prioritized research agenda for technology-based teaching/learning approaches that are effective and feasible to scale. There are very deep issues to be explored in the new educational techniques, issues which must be explored if such techniques are not to be pursued blindly. This workshop will help lead the way to understanding the developing online educational practices in the light of research into their effectiveness. The hope is that a framework will be produced that will lead to research that facilitates the development of high quality, economically-feasible, educational practices with these new and still emerging technologies.
