摘要

地理信息系统(GIS)越来越适合于在线交付。但是,在线教学GIS是具有挑战性的,因为没有与教师或他们之间足够的互动,学生可能无法理解过程,使用批判性思维,并在团队项目中有效地合作。本研究旨在评估两种线上视觉合作工具(Padlet和Conceptboard)在提高线上GIS课程中学习者参与、合作和视觉沟通方面的作用。我们分析了1)使用模式及其与学生成绩的关系,2)学生对与面对面教学相比工具附加值的看法,以及3)学生的定性反馈。学生的调查结果表明,这些工具,特别是概念板,帮助学生从其他学生和教师那里得到及时的帮助,通过参与讨论和看到别人的进步来激励学生,组织和头脑风暴项目的想法,总结和展示最终产品。概念板和在线视频会议工具的结合是面对面学习环境的一个特别有效的替代方案。另一方面,我们也发现了GIS中远程团队合作的重大挑战。结合在线协作工具的课程设计可以为在线教授GIS或类似软件的教师提供实用的策略。

Effectiveness of visual communication and collaboration tools for online GIS teaching: using Padlet and Conceptboard
ABSTRACT Geographic information systems (GIS) have become more suitable for online delivery. But teaching GIS online is challenging because, without enough interactions with the instructor or among themselves, students may not understand processes, use critical thinking, and collaborate effectively on a team project. This study aims to evaluate two online visual collaboration tools, Padlet and Conceptboard, in enhancing learner engagement, collaboration, and visual communication in an online GIS course. We analyze 1) usage patterns and their relationship with student performance, 2) students’ opinions on the added values of the tools compared with face-to-face delivery, and 3) students’ qualitative feedback. Student findings show that those tools, particularly Conceptboard, help students get timely help from other students and the instructors, be motivated by participating in discussions and seeing others’ progress, organize and brainstorm project ideas, and summarize and present the final products. The combination of Conceptboard and an online video conference tool is a particularly effective alternative to the face-to-face learning environment. On the other hand, we also found significant challenges with remote teamwork in GIS. The course design incorporating online collaboration tools can provide practical strategies to instructors who teach GIS or similar software online.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Geography in Higher Education ( JGHE) was founded upon the conviction that the development of learning and teaching was vitally important to higher education. It is committed to promote, enhance and share geography learning and teaching in all institutions of higher education throughout the world, and provides a forum for geographers and others, regardless of their specialisms, to discuss common educational interests, to present the results of educational research, and to advocate new ideas.
