The study described in this paper explores the ways in which the ICT industry believes it can and should contribute to ICT education and research in universities. The results confirm how important relationships with universities are seen to be and that industry would like to expand its level of involvement. Industry would like further involvement in curriculum design, both directly and through professional associations. The involvement sought is not just with respect to high-level themes, but many participants felt that they would like input into the content of individual subjects. In addition to providing teaching related input and support, many in industry would also like to benefit from the expertise in universities by attending university run short courses. The paper makes recommendations for how universities and industry can act to strengthen linkages.","PeriodicalId":247470,"journal":{"name":"Innovation in Teaching and Learning in Information and Computer Sciences","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134009211","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 aim is to assess whether the current crop of tablets and available software offer a viable platform for the immediate capture and dissemination of formative or summative written feedback. If so, then these devices could offer an effective and efficient approach to sharing feedback with our students.We examine a range of tablet devices, covering the major operating systems and touchscreen technologies. For each device, we consider a selection of handwriting capture and recognition apps, in each case choosing the best available for a detailed usability analysis. We develop usability criteria based on Nielsen's heuristics, refining them for the task at hand.

The specific contextual reasons for the observed disparity are less well documented and in Vietnam are until now unrealized.

The system has the capability to display data structures graphically as well as providing the facility to allow users to perform the basic operations on the data structure generated. An animation-based approach has been developed to provide a step-by-step illustration of how various traversal techniques are performed in the context of binary search and AVL trees data structure. The system has a tutorial mode incorporating exercises, where students can learn basic concepts operations associated with each data structure. The evaluation was carried out by computer science undergraduate students in the School of Computing and Mathematics. It is generally acknowledged that the system was very useful in teaching students about data structures. This system can be used as an effective supplement to traditional teaching methods.","PeriodicalId":247470,"journal":{"name":"Innovation in Teaching and Learning in Information and Computer Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130851369","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}

Teachers complain of low numbers due to a lack of interest from parents and pupils. This unfortunate trend means the current education system will very likely fail to meet the skill needs of industry in the future, and it is unfortunate for a nation which has a long and proud history of innovation and technical expertise. In the following report we will reflect upon one of the authors’ (Gareth’s) experiences and observations as a STEM Ambassador (http://www.stemnet.org.uk/content/ambassadors/whoareambassadors) in a Scottish High School. We highlight the differences he observed between first and third year students. We reflect on his experiences, consider them in the light of the literature on creativity in schools and make some suggestions as to how the situation could be improved.","PeriodicalId":247470,"journal":{"name":"Innovation in Teaching and Learning in Information and Computer Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129278304","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}

It concludes with desiderata of features for a learning environment when used for assessment and a reflection on the gap between current and aspired learning provision. The context considered is higher (tertiary) education, where the aims are both to improve students’ engagement with course content and also to bring about potential changes in the students’ learning behaviour. Whilst traditional approaches to teaching and learning may focus on dealing with large classes, where the onus is frequently on efficiency and on the effectiveness of feedback in improving understanding and future performance, intelligent systems can provide technology to enable alternative methods that can cope with large classes that preserve the cost benefits. However, such intelligent systems may also offer improved learning outcomes via a personalised learning experience. This paper looks to exploit particular properties which emerge from the game playing process and seek to engage them in a wider educational context. In particular we aim to use game engagement and flow as natural dynamics that can be exploited in the learning experience.","PeriodicalId":247470,"journal":{"name":"Innovation in Teaching and Learning in Information and Computer Sciences","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134115790","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}

Further, courses related to these topics have increased in student popularity. Learning by doing (or experiential learning) is an effective pedagogical way to help students constructively build up their knowledge related to these courses. To improve student engagement and employability and make these courses sustainable, the paper has proposed and developed a portable unified constructivist-learning environment using virtualisation technology, and designed a wide spectrum of hands-on materials on both security and forensic computing topics to offer students a great chance to experience experiential learning. The work presented in this paper is a typical exemplar of applying constructivist learning theories into security and forensic computing education and other similar courses. It is a new way to improve and transform undergraduate STEM education.","PeriodicalId":247470,"journal":{"name":"Innovation in Teaching and Learning in Information and Computer Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134119671","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}
