The MIRACLE project is running its second pilot study, this time in the real settings! During 5 weeks, data will be collected both in a high school and in a science center. Data will be used both for advancing our knowledge on science learning and for informing our further design and development of technology-supported learning environments.
CONTACT project researchers Alfredo Jornet and Cecilie Jahreie have been awarded Best Paper contribution at the ReLIVE11 conference.
The Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology is inaugurating the new exhibition Energy Tivoli, which has been partly developed in collaboration with the MIRACLE project, and which is a cornerstone for MIRACLE's research on technology-supported learning across contexts.
We wish all involved in the project happy holidays! Here are some impressions from the workshops.
MIRACLE will be present at the International Conference of the Learning Sciences 2012, which will be held in Sydney between July 2nd and 6th. Our research will be presented and discussed in a symposium titled
Hans Christian Arnseth, Ingeborg Krange, and Ole Smørdal will be presenting their work at the ISCAR congress in Rome, september 5-10 2011.
Alfredo Jornet Gil has participated in the ISCAR summer university in Moscow on Cultural-Historical psychology, where he has presented some of MIRACLE project's research strategies.
Start up workshop at Norwegian Science and Technology Museum
MIRACLE first pilot study is running at InterMedia's studio this week.
Dr. Jim Slotta and his team from the OISE has been visiting the MIRACLE team at InterMedia, in order to share their expertise in technological development within education and to explore our present and future common places for collaboration.
Ole Smørdal and Anthony Perritano have been presenting a demo of some of MIRACLE's developments
Thursday 20th of November, the first MIRACLE's reference group meeting took place at InterMedia. A team of experts in different fields within ICT and learning evaluate, provide feedback and share insights for further design/development of the project.
During these days, Alfredo Jornet & Cecilie Jahreie are presenting their paper "Designing for immersive learning environments across schools and science museums. Multi-professional conceptualizations of space", at the ReLIVE11 conference.
Early February InterMedia Lab visited the Table Top Interaction Laboratory at Calmers University in Göteborg. Also much relevant to the MIRACLE project was our full day visit to the science centre Universum
EngageLab has started to design sketches for digital representations in science. Their work is based on the start up workshop in October 2010 and development plans in education, interaction design and technology.
