Background: Technology-enabled learning is increasingly important in teaching and learning medicine.At Humanitas University we started using LMS (LMS@Hunimed) also for the organization, management, storage and evaluation of medical education and professionalizing activities.We explored the perceived benefits and practical use of a LMS by The Office of Medical Education in organizing, managing and evaluating professionalizing activities.Summary of the work: An evaluation questionnaire on LMS was submitted to all members of the OME (7 members) and the Student Office (2 members). Furthermore, Humanitas University register’s office provided a quantitative evaluation of the working hours by the members of OME regarding organization, management and assessments of E- Portfolio on LMS compared with Portfolio before LMS.This study involves the testing of all four operational criteria on learning management system:- Effectiveness – The performance in accomplishment of tasks- Learning ability – The degree of learning to accomplish tasks.- Flexibility – The adaptation to variation in tasks and environments.- Attitude – The user satisfaction or suggestions for improvements.We choose to use a System Usability Scale (SUS), a simple, ten-item attitude scale , to provide an assessments of usability. Summary of results: The use of LMS showed improvements in work efficiency through a significant decrease in working hours. Furthermore, a qualitative analysis of the System Usability Scale (SUS) questions showed that teachers felt moreconfident to use LMS in their daily tasks compared to when using a non-digital approach.Conclusions: LMS@Hunimed showed positive results in providing functional direct access to messaging tools for communication and concrete didactic support for students, teachers and collaborators.

The project on the inclusion and education of Muslim minority children is a twenty-year multimodal educational intervention that aims to fight school failure and promote social inclusion. The project in question comprises activities that belong to both formal and nonformal education. This article concentrates on those activities conducted outside the formal classroom. Set within the cross-fertilization of practice-invested theory with theoretically oriented practice, we focus on out-of-school second language acquisition, teaching Greek as a second language to learners up to the age of twelve, compensatory classes for secondary school students, and adult literacy, all framed within the concepts of community learning and of literacies as multiple and varied, relative to sociocultural context.
This paper reports and discusses the findings from a study exploring the use of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) for teaching and learning at a university in Hong Kong. Seventy-one undergraduate students enrolled on an English course participated in the study. A pedagogical framework is proposed to guide the design of BYODmediated lessons, and the potential of BYOD pedagogies to support teaching and learning is examined. Learning gains from BYOD-mediated lessons are reflected in students’ assessment results. Some merits and challenges associated with BYOD-mediated learning are emerged from students’ focus group responses. The findings contribute to an expanded understanding of the BYOD experience across educational settings.
Professional is integral to being in the workforce. In this article, learning ranges from student preparation for work, to the ongoing development of graduates in their careers. Given the rise of corporate academies and other capability-building programs within organizations, and the changing nature of work, this article highlights a need for universities to reimagine professional approaches. We argue that professional needs to be considered as a continuum by universities, employers of graduates, and graduates themselves, beyond current ideas about work-integrated learning. Otherwise, the risk is that universities will be left behind or left out of the evolving world of professional learning. We believe the transition between university studies and workplace careers will be smoother and more meaningful if professional approaches are aligned, with the student/employee journey centre stage. This article uses a comparative personal narrative methodology in exploring what can be learned from the experience of university educators to inform future models of professional learning. Based on the literature and practice examples discussed, future models are likely to include a clear focus on motivation for interdisciplinary social in networks. This involves a combination of mobile technology and face-to-face experiences, with a sense of belonging fostered for collaborative meaning making and enhanced personal and organizational productivity. It is vital to understand the learner context and culture, enable iterative practice using best-fit technology, and encourage critical reflection for transfer of to new situations.
