HEEL-seminarium/HEEL Seminar
Välkommen till en onlineseminarieserie för e-lärande/teknikstött lärande där utbildning, undervisning och forskning om högskolan är i fokus.
Varmt välkommen till årets andra HEEL-seminarium. Denna gång är temat microcredentials och literacitet i en digital era. Olav Geil, Aalborgs universitet, diskuterar leadENG, ett projekt med fokus på digital tvärvetenskaplig utbildning. I den andra presentationen fokuseras mötet mellan skrivning och läsning av text och kod. Ylva Lindberg och Johanna Velander från Jönköping University presenterar tillsammans med Lena-Maria Öberg, Mittuniversitetet.
Dag och tid: 21 april, kl 10.00 - 12.00

Most welcome to this working seminar, it will be useful for anyone interested in technology-enhanced learning in higher education. This time the seminar has the theme microcredentials and literacy in the digital era. Olav Geil, Aalborg University presents the leadENG project and discusses crossdisciplinary collaboration and microcredential as a tool for higher education. The other presentation, Future Scribes, discusses literacy across tests and codes. It will be presented by Ylva Lindberg and Johanna Velander, Jönköping University, and Lena-Maria Öberg, Mid Sweden University.
Time and date: April 21, 10.00–12.00.
Place: Zoom. Click here for joining the Zoom meeting
More information: The seminar is a collaboration between three research groups, HEEL (Higher Education and E-Learning, MiUN and UmU), eLL (e-Learning Lab, AAU) and WIL (Work-Integrated Learning, UW). In 2023 Jönköping University were added as a fifth collaborating university.
To being able to start on time, please, login and do your soundcheck 5-10 minutes before the seminar start. There is no need to register for participation.
The vision-in-practice project leadENG
Olav Geil, Aalborg University
In this presentation Pro-dean Olav Geil from the faculty of Engineering and Science at Aalborg University will present the vision-in-practice project leadENG which encompasses a variety of initiatives including (1) the award-winning LeadENG student-projects, (2) the AAU microcredentials initiative, and (3) ENG after Hours. LeadENG student-projects are a new form of interdisciplinary student projects that builds on and expands the Aalborg PBL model. In LeadENG projects students collaborate across related fields of study on a joint project with a sustainability focus. The concept of AAU microcredentials is a way of sharing research based knowledge across the university, in an on-demand fashion, with the aim of supporting both project work and extra curricular learning. ENG after Hours consists of a series of events outside office hours where the focus is on the students as whole persons.
Future Scribe. Literacy across texts and codes
Lindberg, Y., Öberg, L-M & Velander, J., Jönköping University and Mid Sweden University
Departing from the scholarship that focuses on the intersection between reading and writing text versus code (see Lindberg & Öberg 2023), our ambition is to explore how a societal and educational focus on programming skills impact on future literacy (Merchant, 2021). Implementations of programming and AI in K-12 education in Sweden reflect socio-technical imaginaries (Jasanoff & Kim 2015) of where, how and for what purposes, programming skills should be learned. Policy and steering-documents currently situate programming knowledge in mathematics and technology, while digital competences, including AI and data literacies, are cutting across all sectors and school subjects. This narrow framing could be considered to cement the “dichotomy between the ‘two cultures’ that C. P. Snow formulated as a gap between, on the one hand, natural sciences, mathematics, and technology, and, on the other hand, the humanities, and social sciences” (Lindberg & Öberg 2023). How do we bridge the gap based on what programming, including reading and writing text versus code, are in current imaginaries? To further the project, we would like to continue to explore current imaginaries in relevant instances, such as, research, public discourse, teaching practices, and the job market. We welcome a discussion on different inroads to the project.
