Effectiveness of different types of scaffolds in self-regulated elearning

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Project Information

Partner: University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Arts
Date: 2018-2021
Info: ARRS Basic Research Project
Code: J5-9437
Funding: Basic Research and Application Project
Duration: 2018 - 2021

Description

In the project Effectiveness of different types of scaffolds in self-regulated elearning, we investigate how cognitive, metacognitive and motivational scaffolds influence the results of e-learning. We also investigate if the effectiveness of different types of scaffolds is related to students’ individual characteristics (abilities, prior knowledge, self-regulatory competences). We will first adapt the existing and develop new instruments for assessing the students’ individual characteristics and develop elearning units with a computer program for navigating through the e-learning unit, managing scaffolds and monitoring the student’s learning activities in the e-learning units. Instruments will be validated on a sample of 300 9th grade primary school students. In the main study, we will investigate the effectiveness of different types of scaffolds in e-learning and the influence of different individual characteristics on this effectiveness. New findings will be useful in planning personalized use of scaffolds in e-environments that will optimize learning. The findings will also add to knowledge of effectiveness of metacognitive and motivational scaffolds in self-regulated learning and to the assessment of importance of combining different types of scaffolds in e-learning. They will promote development of e-textbooks that will not integrate the scaffolds in an intuitive, but rather in a systematic, scientifically supported way, thus optimally supporting independent learning.

ETNOKATALOG: retrieval of semantic data from folk song and music, based on melodic and metro-rhythmic analysis

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Project Information

Partner: Institute of Ethnomusicology (SRC SASA)
Date: 2008-2011
Funding: Basic Research and Application Project
Duration: 2008-2011

Description

The goals of the project are to develop music information retrieval algorithms for folk music. The work is based on the Slovenian archive of folk music and dance culture “Ethnomuse”, which gathers a large variety of multimedia materials, including audio, scores, videos, lyrics and textual metadata (including GIS locations). Music includes solo and choir singing, instrumental music, as well as bell chiming performances. We plan to develop tools and methods that will be used by folk music researchers to interact with the archive and include segmentation, transcription and search-by-melody in symbolic and audio domains. We are also developing algorithms for data mining and visualisation of the archive’s contents. Folk music is passed on orally, so songs change over the time, mix with other songs etc. Complex relations exist between song variants in the archive, which encourages us to research methods of discovering and visualizing these relations.
