22. 22 Innovation & Research

23. : Introduction 23 Next steps for eLearning Knowledge Transfer Knowledge Creation

24. Facilitates constructivist-based learning through project work Before eUreka - Physical Logbook for documentation With eUreka – online access, file repository for sharing, weblog for journal log, reflections

25. Project Work Management System (PMWS) eUreka for Project Work Management eUreka was designed and developed to: record the discovery learning journey in project work facilitate effective mentorship by the supervisor capture and manage the tacit knowledge derived and discovered Project planning Milestones and time-line Repository of project documents Supervision Project Logbook/Journal Assessment

26. 26 Online Project Work Management System Use eUreka to document, monitor and share ideas, collaborate, resources and reflections in your project work learning journeys

27. Web2.0 Blogs used in true academic context weblog: reflections on learning

28. Main Difference Between (Blackboard) LMS and eUreka LMS Professor owns the site eUreka Student(s) owns the site

29. Usage Statistics… Since its maiden launch in September 2004 - the adoption for eUreka has shown steady growth

30. Institutional platform for knowledge creation and management Enterprise campus wide system to manage tacit knowledge derived from project work processes Documentation of first claim of Intellectual Property (IP) Centralized platform to manage quality processes of invention and innovation

31. What we are thinking of doing next … 31

32. 32 Σ σ Sigma Model

33. 33 Unique in Education … and a few other professions Education do not guarantee their products…. No of Students Performance Distribution

34. 34 Effectiveness No of Students Performance Distribution -- Traditional -- eLearning

35. 35 Effectiveness – the mature model α - more students doing better (peak- to-peak) β - better mean student performance ∂ - higher performance ρ -lower failure rates No of Students Performance Distribution α β ρ ∂

36. 36 The best way to predict the future is to invent it. Alan Kay

37. 37 If we can reverse engineer the performance outcomes, what can we do? No of Students Performance Distribution Starting with the end in mind, what can we do to achieve this desired outcome?

38. 38 Experimental concept: Sigma Model: Teach less, Learn more Effective learning via integrated 3-in-1 practice module of –Live + recorded lecture review for knowledge learning –Discussion/forum/virtual tutorial for opportunity to formulate and articulate deep questions –Self eAssessment for multiple timely feedback

39. 39 Content is King if then Infrastructure is god ifContent is King andInfrastructure is god thenLearning Activities will create the economy Redefined roles of instructors using the new pedagogies “teach” vs “help to learn”

40. Quality from Different Perspectives Quality of content –Usually not the issue Standard textbooks, derivative material, multimedia courseware Quality of teaching process –You have taught them; have they learnt? Quality of the (self- directed) learning process –Impact on Student performance, Institutional reputation Student value-add quality 40 Sigma will answer: Yes/No
