Item Collaborative work with wikis. Analysis of some innovative educational centers(ACM, 2017-10-18) González Rodero, L.The wiki tool, incorporated in the Moodle platform, is able to provide us with a learning environment which is strongly linked to social-construction approaches, facilitating the development of collaborative work projects on-line. Wikis are tools where the exchange of ideas and the collaborative workflow are important factors for development with university students. This case study analyses and evaluates essential aspects for the successful deployment of a wiki in a higher education proposal. The proposal of work by projects, has been oriented to students of the first university course, in order to analyze the characteristics of the educational centers of the 21st century, within a collaborative working environment through the use of the Wiki tool. Our results suggest that a wiki can promote effective collaborative learning, confidence in self-training and peer evaluation, facilitating rapid feedback, intuitive navigation and task performance.Item Towards the Organization of a Portfolio to Support Informal Learning(Tempus Publication, 2017-03-31) Galanis, N.; Mayol, E.; Casany, M. J.; Alier Forment, MarcThe accelerating change that the society is experiencing worldwide is exposing the weaknesses in the education system we have inherited from previous generations. Every year lots of kinds of jobs disappear and new job descriptions are being created as well. Lifelong learning is no longer a theoretical concept, but a very real need for most people. Not all learning comes from formal education processes. Students and professionals are getting actionable knowledge from all kinds of sources and activities. Thus, informal learning, alongside competence-based learning and learning outcomes is getting a lot of attention lately from human resources departments, academics and policy makers. A number of countries and organizations are busy defining guidelines for validating and evaluating informal learning experiences and formalizing its outcomes. In a globalized society where technology has brought together different cultures and educational systems, managing to keep track of a learner’s competences is a daunting task, and especially when trying to take into account the competences acquired through informal means. In this paper, we propose a framework to gather, enhance, organize, evaluate and showcase a user’s informal learning using a social approach to engage the learners to use the system by providing valuable recommendations, contacts and feedback.Item A Social Framework for Supporting, Evaluating and Validating Informal Learning(2014-10) Galanis, N.; Mayol, E.; Alier Forment, Marc; García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.Item Tutor Online.
