Slidecasting 2.0 - eLearning im Lichte von Web 2.0 Trends

Abstract

Diese Diplomarbeit behandelt die Entwicklung eines Prototypen für den Bereich E-Learning. Diese Anwendung soll die Prinzipien des Web 2.0, also der »Social Software«, mit der vorherrschenden Massenlehre verbinden, sodass die negativen Effekte der großen Anzahl der Teilnehmer zu einem Vorteil umgekehrt werden. Nach einer kurzen Einleitung möchte ich eine theoretische Einführung in die projektrelevanten Themen und Begriffe, wie Lehrtheorien, E-Learning und Web 2.0 geben und mich anschließend der Entwicklung der Applikation zuzuwenden. Hier beschreibe ich zuerst das

This masterthesis deals with the topic of developing a prototypical application in the field of eLearning, which tries to combine the principles of Web 2.0 or the so called »Social Software« with the everyday situations of massteaching in a way that the negative effects of the latter are transformed into positive ones. Beginning with a short introduction I want to continue with the definition of some key concepts like teaching theory, eLearning and Web 2.0 thereby laying the theoretical foundation for the next chapters. After that the main part will be concerned with the development phase, commencing with the conception and going on to the first real development step, the experiments, which analyzed some helpful tools and were important for a quick start of the protject, avoiding too much development at the beginning. Thereafter I will describe the development of the prototype as such and the experiences made during the process. Finally I will summarize the results and give s short outlook into the possible future of the prototype.
