Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Collaborative Problem Solving, the resolution of complex problems with the collaboration of multiple peoplepooling their knowledge, skills and effort is postulated as an essential 21st century skills for the futureworkforce. Collaborative Problem Solving has been embraced in schools where both online and face-to-face collaboration are afforded through the proliferation of educational technology tools. Assessing the amount of collaboration that has taken place among the students has however been challenging. In this research, we seek to identify the collaboration patterns of our students by mining the temporal sequence of their actions logs captured within a digital whiteboard tool. With the use …

Designing Flipped Learning Activities For Beginner Programming Course, Benjamin Gan, Eng Lieh Ouh
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This study focuses on designing flipped classroom learning activities across pre-class problem-based exercises; with in-class active discussions and practical problem-solving sessions; and follow up with postclass problem-based labs and assessments. We evaluate the effectiveness of our learning activities based on student surveys, course feedback, grades, and teacher feedback for a beginner programming course with non-IS students. We describe detail programming learning activities with comparisons to existing practices based on related work. Our findings are that majority of students (86%) agreed with flipped classroom, but teachers should be aware of the 14% who disagreed and cater for them. Teachers should avoid …

Flip & Slack – Active Flipped Classroom Learning With Collaborative Slack Interactions, Kyong Jin Shim, Gottipati Swapna, Yi Meng Lau
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Active flipped classroom learning is stipulated with faculty structuring the activities involving constructive interactions, either formal or informal. Sharing ideas and responding to ideas improve the cognitive skills of the students. Encouraging peers to contribute to class activities and respecting peers contribute to the development of affective skills. We present an integrated platform for cognitive and affective skills development. A flipped classroom arrangement allows the faculty to focus more on in-class activities such as programming and lab exercises to support active learning in computing courses. We share the design of an innovative flipped classroom model integrated with Slack and present …

Constructive interactions through discussion forums allow students to open their horizons and thought processes to acquire more knowledge and develop skills. Thus, discussion forums play an important role in supporting learning. Additionally, the discussion forum provides the content for creating a knowledge repository. It contains discussion threads related to key course topics that are debated by the students. One approach to understanding the student learning experience is through the analysis of the discussion threads. This research proposes the application of discourse analysis and collaborative learning frameworks to discussion forums to gain further insights into the student’s learning in a classroom. …

Effectiveness Of Bite-Sized Lecture On Student Learning Outcomes, Noi Sian Koh, Swapna Gottipati, Venky Shankararaman
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Bite-Sized teaching approach uses relatively small learning units with short term focused activities. The paper presents the effectiveness of Bite-Sized lecture pedagogy on learning outcomes for an analytics course offered by the School of Information Technology at Nanyang Polytechnic. The methodology involves breaking a typical 1 hour lecture into 3 to 4 short lectures followed by related tutorial / practical exercises relevant to each respective short lecture. The results from the exercises shows statistically significant improvements in the assessed learning outcomes for the Bite-Sized lecture over the traditional one hour lecture. 75% of the surveyed respondents agreed that the speed …

Using Teaching Cases For Achieving Bloom’S High-Order Cognitive Levels: An Application In Technically-Oriented Information Systems Course, Kar Way Tan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Case-teaching has been an attractive pedagogy method for bringing in real-world examples into the classroom. However, it is challenging to introduce cases to address high-order cognitive skills such as analyzing and creating new IT solutions in technically-oriented computing course. In this research, we present our experience in introducing three types of case studies -- Story-Telling case, Design-and-Problem-Solving case, and Create-Design-Implement case to a course in an undergraduate Information Systems programme. For each case study, we plan and map the learning objectives to address various cognitive levels in the revised Bloom’s Taxonomy. Using surveys conducted over two academic years, we show …

Interactive storytelling in the virtual environment attracts a lot of research interests in recent years. Story plot and character are two most important elements of a story. Based on these two elements, currently there are two research directions: plot-based and character-based interactive storytelling. However, plot-based approach lacks the refinement of character behaviors as character-based approach. On the other side, character-based approach does not follow a well organized story plot so that the moral of the story might be distorted. Therefore, there is a need to develop an integrated framework to achieve the balance between conveying story moral and enhancing the …
