Diese notwendige Umstellung der Lehre zielte auf die Verminderung der Kontaktmöglichkeiten und damit auf die Reduzierung der Ansteckungsgefahr mit COVID-19 ab. Dieser Artikel beleuchtet – auch im Sinne partizipatorischer Fragestellungen – die Herausforderungen, denen sich Studierende in Zeiten des „home-learning“ gegenübersahen, um an der digitalen Lehre teilhaben zu können. Im Rahmen der zugrundeliegenden Studie wurde untersucht, inwieweit die universitären Maßnahmen bezüglich „home-learning“ sowie weitere (nationale) Regelungen zu Teilhabebarrieren für Studierende wurden. Im Folgenden werden die Ergebnisse dieser Befragung (n=412) unter Studierenden der Bildungswissenschaft der Universität Wien zusammengefasst. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass nicht so sehr der technische Zugang zu Computer und Internet hinderlich ist, sondern vielmehr die Kompetenzanforderungen bestimmter Technologien, die Organisation von Tages- und Wochenabläufen sowie des eigenen Lernens und der Umgang der Lehrenden mit der Situation. Auch steigende Kursanforderungen, der Zugang zur Bibliothek, zunehmende Betreuungspflichten und der (drohende) Verlust des Arbeitsplatzes haben die Teilnahme am „home-learning“ erheblich beeinträchtigt.}, keywords = {A, Corona, Digitale Kluft, Digitale Medien, distance learning}, pubstate = {published}, tppubtype = {article} } Die Nutzung von digitalen Medien zur Teilhabe an gesellschaftlichen und wirtschaftlichen Prozessen sowie die Teilhabebarrieren und die digitale Kluft sind seit dem Aufkommen der Computertechnologie ein zentrales Phänomen sozialer (Un-)Gleichheit.

One such alternative is open educational resources (OER). This present study synthesizes results from sixteen efficacy and twenty perceptions studies involving 121,168 students or faculty that examine either (1) OER and student efficacy in higher education settings or (2) the perceptions of college students and/or instructors who have used OER. Results across these studies suggest students achieve the same or better learning outcomes when using OER while saving significant amounts of money. The results also indicate that the majority of faculty and students who have used OER had a positive experience and would do so again. |

However, the low completion rates in MOOCs suggest that student engagement and progression in the courses are problematic. Following the increasing adoption of gamification in education, it is possible that gamification can also be effectively adopted in MOOCs to enhance students' motivation and increase completion rates. Yet at present, the extent to which gamification has been examined in MOOCs is not known. Considering the myriad gamification elements that can be adopted in MOOCs (e.g., leaderboards and digital badges), this theoretical research study reviews scholarly publications examining gamification of MOOCs. The main purpose is to provide an overview of studies on gamification in MOOCs, types of research studies, theories applied, gamification elements implemented, methods of implementation, the overall impact of gamification in MOOCs, and the challenges faced by researchers and practitioners when implementing gamification in MOOCs. The results of the literature study indicate that research on gamification in MOOCs is in its early stages. While there are only a handful of empirical research studies, results of the experiments generally showed a positive relation between gamification and student motivation and engagement.

However, the low completion rates in MOOCs suggest that student engagement and progression in the courses are problematic. Following the increasing adoption of gamification in education, it is possible that gamification can also be effectively adopted in MOOCs to enhance students' motivation and increase completion rates. Yet at present, the extent to which gamification has been examined in MOOCs is not known. Considering the myriad gamification elements that can be adopted in MOOCs (e.g., leaderboards and digital badges), this theoretical research study reviews scholarly publications examining gamification of MOOCs. The main purpose is to provide an overview of studies on gamification in MOOCs, types of research studies, theories applied, gamification elements implemented, methods of implementation, the overall impact of gamification in MOOCs, and the challenges faced by researchers and practitioners when implementing gamification in MOOCs. The results of the literature study indicate that research on gamification in MOOCs is in its early stages. While there are only a handful of empirical research studies, results of the experiments generally showed a positive relation between gamification and student motivation and engagement. It is concluded that there is a need for further studies using educational theories to account for the effects of employing gamification in MOOCs. |
