However, there is scarce evidence of refinement techniques developed for and/or applied to the concept/requirements of novel systems innovated with participatory design. Arguably, general idea assessment and refinement techniques can be applied to participatory innovations. But including expert-centered techniques in a pure participatory project violates the basic philosophy of user-centeredness. In this work, the authors report on conception and application of a participatory refinement technique applied to refine the outcomes of participatory innovation/design. The reported participatory refinement experiment is performed on the design of a case tool—Jeliot Mobile—innovated earlier through participatory workshops. The authors draw several implications from the experiment. First, the need of a refinement technique for participatory innovation/design is established by the observation that a large number of ideas from the original concept are eliminated. Second, the difference of opinion between innovators and refiners show that different end-users from the same population may diverge in creativity differently. Thus, some ideas generated during ideation may be seems suitable to conceiver at that moment, but may not be beneficial to the society at large. Third, the inter-rater consistency of refinement establishes that end-user can refine, contrary to the popular belief that only experts can evaluate and refine due to their previous knowledge.","PeriodicalId":354294,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Learning and Teaching in Computing and Engineering (LaTICE)","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115698365","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}

Concerning this matter, David (2008) suggests teachers to meet regularly through collaborative inquiry while Croco and Cramer (2005) suggest the use of technology as added-value in improving their teaching skills. By using technology such social media, pre-service teacher should continuously engage in discussions with their lecturer and teacher educator so that they could constantly reflect critically during their teaching practice. The ability to reflect critically among trainee teachers must start with reflective thinking. Thus, the purpose of this study was to develop critical reflection among the pre-service teachers based on a conceptual framework developed from Schon's (1983) reflective practices model and Kilbane's (2007) collaborative inquiry model using social media. The research sample comprised five pre-service teachers from a Malaysian public university which was selected on the basis of their ability in using social media platform. The instruments used in this study were Facebook group and interviews. The transcripts derived from the online discussions among the students, pre-service teachers, lecturer and teacher educators through Facebook group were analysed using coding procedure developed from Henri's (1992) cognitive skills model and Kilbane's (2007) collaborative inquiry model. The findings indicated that the pre-service teachers were able to develop critical reflections during their teaching practice and thus, improved their teaching skills.","PeriodicalId":354294,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Learning and Teaching in Computing and Engineering (LaTICE)","volume":"2674 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123448628","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}

Hence, this paper presents a literature review of the use of the Learning Analytics Intervention implemented in various educational institutions in order to improve students' success and engagement in their learning, particularly for at-risk students. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of how Learning Analytics Intervention has been utilised in the educational institution, the types of theory applied in the intervention and what tools are used in the intervention. Additionally, the application of Learning Analytics Intervention, its purpose, effects and examples are also discussed in this paper. The findings show that most of the Learning Analytics Interventions have an impact on students' success in their learning, although some of them have little impact or no significant effect, and various Learning Analytics tools and strategies are discovered. Lastly, it is suggested that further Learning Analytics Interventions should be developed in order to meet the needs of students.","PeriodicalId":354294,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Learning and Teaching in Computing and Engineering (LaTICE)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115970831","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 attempted to use scenarioepistemic game (SE game) in socio-collaborative learning environment to improve HOTs among high school chemistry students in Malaysia. The SE game was a knowledge game that centred on professional practices relevant to critical thinking in a real world scenario. Furthermore, the paper provided a brief design of SE game according to its framework which was a combination of SKIVE elements and Ruth Clark’s scenariobased model. Meanwhile, socio-collaborative learning environment was used to engender greater knowledge acquisition and HOTs. There were 23 chemistry students who participated in this study for a period of six-weeks. They were required to play the SE game and solve four learning tasks in socio-collaborative learning environment. The instruments used to identify students’ HOTs achievement were socio-collaborative discussion scripts, pre-test and post-test. The socio-collaborative discussion scripts were used to evaluate respondents’ prompts and responses, which represented their thinking level. They contributed 61.4% of their discussion statements in the lower level of responses (Remember and Understand) and constructed 38.6% of HOTs statements during collaboration process. Furthermore, the findings in pre-test and post-test showed that there was 21.7% improvement in Apply level, 78.3% improvement in Analysis level, 43.5% improvement in Evaluate level and 65.2% in Create level. All in all, this study provided as a new contribution to learning approach in education domain where the SE game in socio-collaborative learning environment had a significant impact on HOTs in chemistry.","PeriodicalId":354294,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Learning and Teaching in Computing and Engineering (LaTICE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130730795","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}

This project aims to gain insights in how soft skills are taught in Vietnamese universities, and which skills are missing in their bachelor education programmes. The findings are intended to support education in order to develop the teaching of soft skills for Vietnamese students, and decrease the unemployment rate of Vietnamese graduates. In this project, semi-structured interviews, by e-mail, have been used to collect the data. There are eight Vietnamese interviewees who have experiences from various education programmes. The interview transcripts were then analysed and categorised into themes. The results of our work are a preliminary identification of missing skills in the undergraduate programmes, and a set of proposed skills that could be considered to improve the education programmes.","PeriodicalId":354294,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Learning and Teaching in Computing and Engineering (LaTICE)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128036327","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}
