Smart Learning Concept
Considering the faster technical improvement and the more extensive guidelines, standards and laws employed persons have to study further continuously from the time of graduation to the beginning age of retirement. In the further training for “Building Energy Consultant Handwerkskammer” (GEB HWK), that directs to the qualification for a master, the participants have to apply the specific knowledge directly into the praxis and they have to be able to keep the acquired knowledge up-to-date. The educational offer requires a strict schedule and learning discipline by the employed half-time students. A straight consequence of the lack of time is a short-time, exam-oriented learning strategy.
The project “Smart Learning” approaches these challenges with a new didactic concept. The core of the project is learning with continuous, level-adapted and activity-oriented digital contents in which the students are supported by a personal learning guide. The learning guide web-app follows the learning process of the students with a Learning Analytics Software and recommends them personalized and appropriately, including audio-visual learning objects in a learning room system.
Fraunhofer FOKUS Role
Fraunhofer FOKUS Business Unit Future Applications and Media (FAME) will develop the Lernbegleiter (Learning Guide) and the Learning Analytics.
