DESCRIPTION
Concept map for future artifact ecosystems to replace etextbook approach http://tihane.files.wordpress.com/2014/08/etextbook2.jpg Our paper discusses the niche technologies that have and possibly will contribute to the future e-textbooks as a new socio-technical regime. We propose the conceptual map of textbook functionalities aiming at opening the conceptual discussion for brainstorming and finding scenarios how the niche technologies that explored novel textbook applications in learning might be best combined into the new “artifact ecosystems” regime. Jointly with workshop participants we aim to come up with metaphors and concepts depicting learning in this regime. Paper will be published in october 2014 in Springer, ICWL 2014 workshop papersTRANSCRIPT

ICWL 2014, Future eTextbook’s workshop
I. eTextbooks programming personalized instruction for achieving pre-determined learning results
Adaptive learningLearning results pre-plannedLearning what crowd sees as best
Optimal comprehension Support for earning stylesIncreased interactivity
Multimedia learning principles as the leading
cognitive paradigm to explain learning with
eTextbooksor
Distributed cognition
Behavioral learning principles
reintroduced in eTextbook
oradaptive learning
from crowd experiences
Adaptive technologiesLearning analytics
Co-construction and Social validation of Contents and Support
Learning analytics in artifact ecosystems
Socio-semantic technologies
II. eTextbooks with partial learners’ locus of control
Open and emerging learning pathsTextbook is a forum where people share ideasCan watch how things change and knowledge matures
Fixed learning pathsTeachers know what students must learnCompulsory contents with optional extending resources
Replicating the paper textbook digitally or creating the evolving artifact ecosystem
What hinders new “artifact ecosystem” regime?
Old teaching habits are hard to change
The students are ready, the teachers are not
Requires rethinking the production and business models, user-support and accessible learning devices
What hinders new “artifact ecosystem”regime?
What “artifact ecosystems” may be?• How these potential e-textbook functionalities
originating from different approaches to teaching, learning and cognitive practices could evolve into the new “artifact ecosystem” regimes?
• What metaphors may be used for illustrating those artifact ecosystems?
• Whom (Teachers? Students? Learning sciences? Producers? Educational policy makers and funders?) should we listen in developing “artifact ecosystems”, and where would each stakeholder group like to lead the eTextbook transformation?
Starting the joint white paper –“Artifact ecosystems” as the new socio-technical regime
• Prospective scenarios for artifact ecosystems• Learning regime – learning is opened up; from
monads to swarms; pattern appropriation and chance-seeking; etc.
• Social and cultural factors – back to storytelling; voice for everyone etc.
• Technical factors – access for each learner• Business regime – permaculture for artifact
ecosystems (ethical, optimal use of resources and people, recycling resources) Join to our discussions and contribute to the joint write paper!
