#Colleges Are Preparing To Self-Lobotomize

The skills that future graduates will most need in an age of #automation -- #CreativeThinking , #CriticalAnalysis , the capacity to learn new things -- are precisely those that a growing body of research suggests may be eroded by inserting #AI into the #educational process, yet #universities across the United States are now racing to embed the technology into every dimension of their #curricula.

Micro-Credentials: Flexibilisierung und Personalisierung von Curricula

Als „Microcredentials“ werden Nachweise von Lernergebnissen bezeichnet, die im Rahmen von Lerneinheiten erworben wurden, die weniger umfangreich sind als klassische Hochschulveranstaltungen. Im Online-Event diskutierten Hon.-Prof. Ernst Kreuzer (TU Graz) und Mag. Christina Raab (Univ. Innsbruck), welche Potenziale und Herausforderungen mit der Gestaltung und Anerkennung von Microcredentials verbunden sind – und ob und wie sie sich in klassische Curricula integrieren lassen.

Future Skills und Kompetenzen im Curriculum

Ziel des Konzepts der Future Skills ist es, Kompetenzen zu identifizieren, die zukünftig persönlich und beruflich an Bedeutung gewinnen und damit auch für die Hochschullehre immer wichtiger werden. Zu Beginn des Online-Events gab Prof. Dr. Ulf-Daniel Ehlers (DHBW) einen Überblick über das Konzept und die aktuellen Entwicklungen. Im Anschluss berichtete HS-Prof. Dr. Reinhard Bauer (PH Wien) über die Erfahrungen mit der Integration von Future Skills in die soeben neugestalteten Curricula der Lehramtsstudiengänge an der PH Wien.

Yesterday, 3 of us attended the OC Lab Connect meeting at Heidelberg University, an event for lab course coordinators of #organic chemistry, to present the ELN #Chemotion.
The response highlighted that making #RDM & the use of #ELNs is an integral part of #chemistry #curricula!

Ob das stimmt und trägt? Wozu ist das gut? Ausbaufähig?
& mal schauen, wann ich dazu komme.

Bei (klassischen) #Curricula sollen sich Studierende zu den Veranstaltungen *bewegen*, in denen Kompetenzerwerb stattfindet für ein bestimmtes Absolvent*inneprofil.
Bei #OER sollen Inhalte (Kompetenzen?) zu Lernenden *bewegt* werden, gleichzeitig können sich die *Lernenden* zu den Inhalten *bewegen*, kein Absolvent*innenprofil.

@KF0UNK @kb6nu @n8gnj @vk2tty @9v1rt I learned this on the #nrao #HamRadio project. I tried to keep "Audible Citizenship and Audiomobility: #Race, Technology, and #CB #radio in mind while I developed #curricula
