This highly interactive half-day workshop will enable participants to share their views and experiences on the current status of how the web is approached in interdisciplinary teaching activities in Higher Education related contexts. The intended audience are primarily Web Science researchers and educators who teach on the web, about the web and to students who use the web.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
- Teaching experiences
- Web Scientists with web-related teaching activities are invited to share their experience in this workshop. From “Fundamentals in Web Development” to “Web Economics”, “Web Sociology”, “Ethics” or “Web Culture”, present your teaching activities in 7 minutes oral presentations + 3 of questions.
Submissions should indicate:
- Course context (level, students, discipline, )
- Course objectives and targeted competencies
- Course content (Structure, sections, topics, references)
- Evaluation methods (Tests, projects, papers, )
- Experience feedback / Students feedback
- Community building and resources sharing
- Accounts of resource development and sharing initiatives – in progress or proposed. We are particularly interested in examples of collaboration and co-creation, creating the curriculum from the ground up, student led activities.
Submissions should provide a well structured account of the activity and progress supported by evaluations and reflections as appropriate.
- Curriculum design – from rationale to realisation
-
In some cases, colleagues will have designed curricula which they have not yet taught, or have only been teaching for a short while. In these cases it may not be possible to present evaluations, however and explanation of the rationale may be valuable to the community.
Colleagues may be able to offer insights into unexpected problems, serendipitous solutions, or proposals which they consider to be particularly innovative.
Submissions should provide a well structured account of the activity and progress supported by analysis and reflections as appropriate.
