see if it is capableof solving ten puzzles.Interactive Exercise: Blindfold and Lead In order to teach the students the value of giving explicit instructions the students were requiredto navigate their peers across the room. One student volunteered to be blindfolded and two studentsvolunteered to give instructions. The blindfolded student had the objective of traveling from oneside of the room to the other side based purely on the instructions of his/her peers. This exerciseemphasized the level of precision necessary to describe a sequence of steps.Standardized Test Preparation: System of Equations The students were given a pair of linear equations and instructed to solve for the unknownvariables using an algorithmic approach.

client applications that can beaccessed with every modern browser. This work presents the results of a survey carried out inthe scope of a national project that aims among others to gain knowledge from peer-feedbackto improve usability and to increase workload of Educational Online Laboratories, as well asto explore age-dependent requirements for the integration of Online Laboratories in classes ofsecondary schools.In our project we work together with three secondary schools from Austria and some othersfrom European countries with a focus on STEM subjects. Each Austrian project partnerdevelops its own Educational Online Laboratory in an area that suits their curricula. To assurethat the laboratory experiments are qualified in terms of their

Learning Blockswere broken down into sections with specific expectations as shown in Figure 1.Figure 1: Learning blocks used to guide camp activitiesThe learning blocks were divided into different categories, subjects and sections. Learn-Itsections were 10-minutes in duration and consisted of brief explanations of the theory,introduction and purpose of the activity, and expectations with facilitators providing fun andengaging presentations using videos and live examples. The emphasis here was to provide asummary of the key terms, topics and strategies without elaborating in regards to specificsolutions or challenges. This gave campers a basis for

One byproduct of thiscreative opportunity, however, is the challenge faced by instructors in identifying practicalinsights and principles to apply when considering and/or developing videos.In this paper, we aim to achieve two objectives: (1) summarize the research surrounding onlineeducational videos, and (2) provide a list of seven recommendations for creating educationalvideos high in pedagogical value. We are writing this paper primarily for instructors andinstructional designers, so we focus both objectives on creating online videos that then exist inthe context of a wider educational endeavor (e.g., an online or blended course). In the firstsection, we address the issue of the best design model for educational videos. In the

The second part of the survey contained open questionsso that students have a space to write about their PLEs as well as his/her learning throughtechnological tools, several information sources, and their PLNs.The information obtained was classified into quantitative and qualitative data.
