the vanderbilt institute for digital learning (vidl) invites applications for graduate student fellowships for the 2014-2015 academic year. vidl expects to award four graduate fellowships, each carrying a stipend of $5,500 per academic year for approximately five hours of work per week during the year. applications<\/a> are due april 24th. details below.<\/p>\n

vidl has several missions, to include (a) exploring and supporting the use of online and other digital learning technologies to enhance the on-campus learning experience; (b) supporting and tracking campus research on learning with digital technologies, in areas such as educational data mining and human-computer interactions; and (c) supporting the production of educational content by our faculty and students, to include flagship projects, such as coursera online courses.<\/p>\n

graduate fellows of vidl will first and foremost advance scholarship in digital learning. examples of possible projects include data mining of online student behavior; studies of student motivation with online environments; tracking organizational changes at vanderbilt as a result of the institute itself; researching a history of selected digital learning technologies such as mobile devices, and investigating societal implications of the technology; preparing, posting, and evaluating original educational online material on a selected topic, and placing it in the web of existing material in that area; characterizing and researching worst-case analyses of peer assessment strategies, rather than (simply) average-case analyses. grad fellows will also learn about the many aspects of creating and evaluating digital learning content.<\/p>\n

expectations: vidl graduate fellows will document their workflows and other activities for the benefit of others — on blogs and as documents and multimedia posted the vidl web site, youtube, and elsewhere. we require a weekly commitment to work on the project; meet with vidl staff; provide progress updates; and contribute to scholarship through public presentations, conferences, journals, or other venues.<\/p>\n
