Reverse problem-based learning - a case study with a Braille machine
Felgueiras, Manuel C.; Fidalgo, André V.; Alves, Gustavo R.Engineering Education includes not only teaching theoretical fundamental concepts but also its verification during practical lessons in laboratories. The usual strategies to carry out this action are frequently based on Problem Based Learning, starting from a given state and proceeding forward to a target state. The possibility or the effectiveness of this procedure depends on previous states and if the present...
Adapting remote labs to learning scenarios: case studies using VISIR and RemotE...
Fidalgo, André V.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Marques, Maria A.; Viegas, C.; Costa-Lobo, Cristina; Henandez-Jayo, Unai; Garcia-Zúbia, Javier; Gustavsson, IngvarRemote laboratories are an emergent technological and pedagogical tool at all education levels, and their widespread use is an important part of their own improvement and evolution. This paper describes several issues encountered on laboratorial classes, on higher education courses, when using remote laboratories based on PXI systems, either using the VISIR system or an alternate in-house solution. Three main i...
IX International conference on Remote Engineering and Virtual instrumentation R...
Garcia-Zúbia, Javier; Alves, Gustavo R.THE ninth edition of the International Conference on Remote Engineering and Virtual Instrumentation (REV) [1] was held at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Deusto, Bilbao (Spain), from the 4th to the 6th of July, 2012. A world-class research community in the subject of remote and virtual laboratories joined the event.
Reshaping higher education systems in the MENA region: the contribution of remo...
Salah, R. M.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Guerreiro, P.Learning is not only happening in school or university; it is also an important aspect of the daily life that allows students to remain in their biological and physical environment helping to reshape it, by applying what they have learnt. Today, the higher education sector is a part of important strategies used by countries in order to foster their development. Despite its geographical location, i.e. its closen...
Informal learning recognition through a cloud ecosystem
García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.; Johnson, Mark; Alves, Gustavo R.; Minović, MiroslavLearning and teaching processes, like all human activities, can be mediated through the use of tools. Information and communication technologies are now widespread within education. Their use in the daily life of teachers and learners affords engagement with educational activities at any place and time and not necessarily linked to an institution or a certificate. In the absence of formal certification, learnin...
TRAILER Project (Tagging, Recognition, Acknowledgment of Informal Learning Expe...
García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.; Conde-González, Miguel Ángel; Zangrando, Valentina; García-Holgado, Alicia; Seoane-Pardo, António-M.; Alier, MarcThe application of information technologies (specially the Internet, Web 2.0 and social tools) make informal learning more visible. This kind of learning is not linked to an institution or a period of time, but it is important enough to be taken into account. On the one hand, learners should be able to communicate to the institutions they are related to, what skills they possess, whether they were achieved in a...
Using the TRAILER tool for managing informal learning in academic and professio...
Viegas, C.; Marques, Maria A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Galanis, Nikolas; Brouns, Francis; Janssen, José; Waszkiewicz, Elwira; Mykowska, AleksandraInformal Learning plays an important role in everyone's life and yet we often are unaware of it. The need to keep track of the knowledge acquired through informal learning is increasing as its sources become increasingly diverse. This paper presents a study on a tool developed to help keeping track of learners' informal learning, both within academic and professional contexts, This tool, developed within the Eu...
Managing informal learning in engineering contexts: the learners' perspective
Viegas, C.; Marques, Maria A.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Galanis, Nikolas; García-Peñalvo, Francisco J.According to recent studies, informal learning accounts for more than 75% of our continuous learning through life. However, the awareness of this learning, its benefits and its potential is still not very clear. In engineering contexts, informal learning could play an invaluable role helping students or employees to engage with peers and also with more experience colleagues, exchanging ideas and discussing prob...
A mobile robot platform for open learning based on serious games and remote lab...
Iturrate, Iñigo; Martín, Gustavo; Garcia-Zúbia, Javier; Angulo, Ignacio; Dziabenko, Olga; Orduña, Pablo; Alves, Gustavo R.; Fidalgo, André V.Within the pedagogical community, Serious Games have arisen as a viable alternative to traditional course-based learning materials. Until now, they have been based strictly on software solutions. Meanwhile, research into Remote Laboratories has shown that they are a viable, low-cost solution for experimentation in an engineering context, providing uninterrupted access, low-maintenance requirements, and a height...
Peers' evaluation of a reconfigurable IEEE1451.0-compliant and FPGA-based weblab
Costa, Ricardo J.; Alves, Gustavo R.; Zenha-Rela, Mário; Zutin, D. G.; Zackrisson, J.; Rochadel, Willian; Henandez-Jayo, UnaiIt is already more than 10 years that weblabs are seen as important resources to provide the experimental work required in engineering education. Several weblabs have been applied in engineering courses, but there are still unsolved problems related to the development of their infrastructures. For solving some of those problems, it was implemented a weblab with a reconfigurable infrastructure compliant with the...
