Paper Abstract:
|
Microlearning has increased its popularity for course designs in eLearning environments due to short attention spans and
time constraints. The objective of this designed-based research is to describe the multiple iterations of design, development,
and revision of a general framework for creating a microlearning reading mobile application. First, we present the
components from the perspective of users and for the execution of a software architecture that allows a modular approach.
Understanding the pedagogical features of mobile learning: personalization, authenticity, and collaboration are included as
part of the IPAC framework to create it. This app was developed in different phases: Analysis and exploration, design and
construction, evaluation and reflection, redesign and reconstruction and final critical reflections.The findings link
design-based research (DBR) as a methodology that allows engaging in theory building and development of reading
applications. It also reveals engagement in reading skills, satisfactory usability ratings and a rise in students' awareness
towards new types of texts. |
