SummaryICT in Education Team
Enhancing the Aalto Virtual Learning Environment and improving the skills of the faculty in blended learning by restructuring the infrastructure and providing training and support to the faculty.
Providing necessary new elements such as plagiarism detection to the environment in addition to coordinating the use of current network services will increase learning centered activities and in the long run result in cost savings.
Improving the skills of the teaching staff in blended learning results in more interactive and student-centered teaching and learning both virtually and in classrooms due to the increased use of modern learning technologies.

Trends and challenges
![Page 20: ENMDA Aims - perspectives and ideas from Aalto experiences](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062514/558a9a7ed8b42a98358b475f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Big ships turn slowly
Encouragement and support are needed
Takes time and effort to learn tools
Culture of “Do-it-yourself”, “little sharing” and competitive attitudes
Will the “new generation” think and act any different? Digital natives
Ups and downs – challenges and enablers
![Page 21: ENMDA Aims - perspectives and ideas from Aalto experiences](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062514/558a9a7ed8b42a98358b475f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
AALTO in practise
• Campus-based activity on three locations• Blended Learning as a strategic development goal• Most teachers create their own material• Material is delivered through several systems –
https://wiki.aalto.fi/display/AaltoPilvi/• Moodle / Optima, • Wiki, Blogs, • Adobe Connect / Webex• Social media
• Support units• IT Helpdesk (infrastructure and technical support)• ICT in Education team (applications to support pedagogical solutions)
Principles of formation of educational content for distance learning
![Page 22: ENMDA Aims - perspectives and ideas from Aalto experiences](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062514/558a9a7ed8b42a98358b475f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Examples of different approaches
• MIT - http://ocw.mit.edu• MIT OpenCourseWare (OCW) is a web-based publication of virtually
all MIT course content. OCW is open and available to the world and is a permanent MIT activity.
• Open University UK - http://www.open.ac.uk/• The Open University is a world leader in modern distance learning,
the pioneer of teaching and learning methods which enable people to achieve their career and life goals studying at times and in places to suit them.
• Aalto - http://www.aalto.fi/en/about/strategy/• Aalto University is a new multidisciplinary university, where science
and art meet technology and business.• Blended learning, and the production and open sharing of teaching
and learning materials will become key aspects of the learning community’s operations.

• Quality management in general
• RAE-project followed by TEE-project – external panel evaluations• The Finnish Higher Education Evaluation Council (FINHEEC) audits
all Finnish Universities• External Programme Accreditations and other evaluations of the
School of Economics (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA, CEMS, PIM) - http://econ.aalto.fi/en/about/accreditations/
• University’s Annual Resource Dialogue – resource allocation.• Personal Development Discussions – rewards?
Process analytics and evaluation, and their influence on the optimization of the educational content

• Problems in participation
• Class-room lectures sometimes skipped > exchange of notes• Worries about reduced participation due to lecture capture and other
online services• Learning centered culture a strategic development goal
• A learning-centred culture challenges teachers and researchers to readdress their teaching methods, improve their performance in mentoring students and strengthen the link between education andresearch. Students are guided towards a strong commitment to their studies and to taking responsibility for their own development. The University is a true learning community and its environment encourages and inspires the active development of new ways of learning and building expertise.
Motivation factors in students’ participation in the process of distance learning
![Page 25: ENMDA Aims - perspectives and ideas from Aalto experiences](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062514/558a9a7ed8b42a98358b475f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Interaction through discussion boards demands activation of the
discussion.• Online processes require effort on process planning, scheduling and
communication• The use of online activities on a course can best be motivated when
– The students are not within the same geographical area.– Students cannot assembly easily for other reasons.– Extra possibilities for discussion support the learning process.– In some cases the numbers of participants is not large.– It saves costs for organizing teaching and learning (without
hindering learning).– Students are familiar with ICT technology.– The maintainer is able to publish materials and managing the
course (or support functions are well resourced and organized).
General factors in in the process of distance learning

A big project• A professional project manager• Manage material production• Plan interaction management• Use faculty and student expertise• Design principles
Enhancing ICT supported distributed learning through action design research

Contextualization should have an effect on the design on many levels starting from an individual user's viewpoint all the way to the organizational aspects of goal setting and institutional constraints.
The concordance principle guides the emergent process to a possible real-life solution through framing the possible outcomes.
Collaborative development iteration cycles make it possible to build an artifact that reflects the actors' real needs.
Commitment at the organizational level ensures that the possibilities that the implementation of an ICT system beholds in enhancing organizational practices and culture do have a possibility to be realized. The utility of the intervention may be seen only after considerable time.
