Mobile Learning

The world of education is currently undergoing significant changes as information and communication technologies are transforming how we think about schooling and learning. This research area aims at understanding the intricacies and complexities of introducing mobile technologies into schools curriculum and accepted teaching practices, and analyzing actual transformations that the use of mobile technologies in schools brings to contemporary forms of learning in the 21st century.

Social Media and Learning Environments

The use of social media both outside and inside schools is changing our literacies and the way we used to think about promoting them.  Our research interest is to investigate pedagogical models that can be adjusted to support learning and teaching in “the digital era” and to develop and design learning environments accordingly.

Virtual cases for learning and assessment

Virtual cases (VCs) can be described as a computer based simulation of real life situations (scenarios or cases), where the user (learner) can interact with and/or encounter one or more persons (or other virtual actors) that has a problem to solve. The learning happens when the user investigates the problem, reflects over and order more information and receives feedback.

VCs allow training in any time, any place and repetitive. VCs facilitates the creation and use of multiple cases in most various domains and are found to be superior to traditional teaching cases in terms of learning outcomes and assessment results.
