BOK must embody the consensus reached by the community for which a specific BOK will be applied. This consensus is a prerequisite for the adoption of the BOK by the community. In this context, at the level of higher education, especially in the field of software engineering, the academic world shows a significant enthusiasm for the development of various competencies related to entrepreneurship and innovation, focusing on both the promotion of opportunities and the strengthening of existing connections between university and software industry. The reality is that one of the main challenges in software engineering is to find the correct entrepreneurship competencies that should be promoted when training professionals, once the latter have finished their studies and started working in either the national or international software industry. In this sense, this paper is aimed at generating innovation and entrepreneurship skills in professionals in software engineering training. These competences are based on BOK principles.","PeriodicalId":102826,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116655843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The overall purpose of the research was to identify multiplatform apps quality assessed with Mobile App Rating Scale that could help people with disability in their learning process. A systematic search was performed with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses in specialized catalogs, Google, Google Play Store, and Apple App Store to identify apps for people with disability, such as autism, Down syndrome and cerebral palsy. Sixty apps were evaluated according to MARS items. The results were classified by disability, platform, and competences of life; each app had their own MARS score. Based on MARS total mean score it concludes that the work of evaluators was aligned with MARS guidelines. MARS scores and app list can be used to encourage therapists, parents, and people with disability the use of them. The evaluation revealed apps with a lack of customization and interactivity, features that are relevant to improve the learning process for people with disability.","PeriodicalId":102826,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122062341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research has shown that mobile learning can support and enhance inquiry-based science learning promoting learning achievement and motivation. However, engagement, as a consequence of motivation, in the context of mobile-assisted inquiry-based science learning, has not been adequately investigated. The current study implements a collaborative mobile-assisted inquiry-based science learning intervention in the context of secondary school science. The study is aiming at explaining and predicting student engagement in terms of the three motivational concepts of the Self-Determination Theory (SDT) of motivation: autonomy, competence and relatedness. Data collected for 80 secondary school students and analyzed with structural equation modeling. The proposed model explains about 63% of the variance in students' engagement in mobileassisted inquiry-based science learning. Perceived autonomy was found to be the strongest predictor of engagement, followed by perceived relatedness. Based on the research findings, implications for practice and suggestions for future studies are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":102826,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125321524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One such example is the simulated online learning environment. Due to the fact that students are able to interact with real time simulations, these environments are referred to as Interactive Online Learning Environments (IOLEs). At most universities in South Africa, students from all faculties are obligated to take an introductory digital literacy course during their first year of study. Due to the large numbers of students in these introductory courses, universities are predominantly making use of IOLEs to assist with the teaching and assessment of MS Office skills. Limited research has been conducted on the constructs that may contribute to the continuous use intention of MS Office IOLEs by students in higher education. The main objective of this paper is to propose a model for the continuous use intention of IOLEs. Three theoretical models were combined in order to develop this model, and include Flow Theory, Information System Expectation-Confirmation Model and the DeLone and McLean Information Systems Success Model. Results reveal that the following constructs should be included in the model to predict continuous use intention: satisfaction, perceived usefulness, perceived enjoyment, perceived ease of use and focused immersion. In addition, students' satisfaction toward MS Office IOLEs was determined by information quality, perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment. Understanding the constructs that influence students continuous use towards MS Office IOLEs could be used by institutions, businesses and instructors to focus their efforts on improving specific aspects of these platforms that would lead to higher levels of student engagement with them. This, in turn, could lead to higher levels of academic success as students engage more with the course content and improve their MS Office skills, one of the most important skills required by all types of employers today.","PeriodicalId":102826,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124004801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study uses Five Phases Needham Model that applies in the multimedia software to overcome the misconceptions that exist in this area of chemical reaction in the classroom instruction. The study also used ADDIE Model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation and Evaluation) to develop multimedia software. Thirty secondary school students and thirty Chemistry teachers took part in this quantitative study which uses the experimental and survey methods. A pre-test and post-test were used to assess the effectiveness of the software in overcoming students misconceptions in the area of chemical reactions. In addition, the study also collects data from teachers through a questionnaire to test the suitability of this software. Data of pre and post tests and questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistic. The results showed that this multimedia software is effective to be practiced in schools among students. The survey also reveals that the software is suitable from various aspects such as understanding of learning content, navigation of software and increase of intrinsic motivation of students. Besides, this study also benefits from the perspective of providing information about the compatibility of multimedia software in Chemistry Education. In fact, secondary school teachers can use this study and the software as a reference or guide for deploying multimedia in teaching and learning.","PeriodicalId":102826,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132556307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
