Informal Learning Session The hall will be organized into several “stations”. At each station, a senior participant will be located (every participant who currently holds a PhD degree). The PhD students will choose a station for a 10-minute conversation. If the number of PhD students is too high, two PhD students can attend a station […]
Thematic Workshop In an effort to bridge the gap between learning analytics (LA) and learning design this workshop presents a multidisciplinary perspective on the design of learning activities. The serious (board) game used in the workshop demonstrates opportunities to create awareness, use the game as a design tool, and design learning activities with LA in […]
Thematic Workshop Open Educational Resources (OER) are digital learning resources offered online freely and openly to teachers, educators, students, and independent learners to be used, shared, combined, adapted, and expanded in teaching, learning and research.

Methodology Workshop Much research in TEL is design work – i.e., together with the relevant stakeholders, the research team designs an intervention that is intended to support learning. This intervention needs to be evaluated alongside the design process to show the extent to which this goal has been reached for the prototypical iteration; and to […]
Career Workshop Post-PhD life is a topic that is often avoided by a lot of PhD candidates as it can all at once seems fuzzy, scary and far ahead.

GCM is suited for various topics, it is participant driven and can be […]
Thematic Workshop The Open Educational Resources (OER) research community is a relatively new area of interest. Research on OER where Technology-Enhanced learning (TEL) has a primary role is growing. PhD students around the world are getting involved in OER research. This workshop will focus on open research practices and approaches with the objective to make […]
Thematic Workshop Assessing the coding skills and learning progress in a programming course is almost impossible without code submissions. Other assessment types, such as multiple-choice quizzes, do not cover the full range of skills but can be checked automatically. Writing unit tests for automated assessment of programming exercises is a manual process and error-prone to […]
Methodology Workshop Conducting a systematic review is a fruitful exercise for early career researchers and doctoral students, to gain a solid overview of a given topic, in order to develop their own research topics and agendas. This workshop provides a dense introduction to the basic steps in systematic review methodology: the development of a review […]
Soft-Skills Workshop Public Speaking is one of the 21st century skills. As PhDs and researchers giving presentations is one very important aspect of our careers that is usually overlooked.
