- 4. The Year 1 Computing/Gaming PDP Problem: • Personal Development Portfolio sessions needed to deliver basic academic skills • BUT failed to engage students from the first year Computing and Gaming Technology course. – lack of submissions, affected progression • So we needed something to act as a practical focus around which the skills could be utilised ALT-C Shaping the future of learning together 8-10 Sept 2015
- 5. Augmented PDP: pedagogic approach • Students Introduced to the Aursama AR app • Working in groups outside the class, students created augmented team logos • Students were encouraged to plan, script and create an aura for a book used in their course . • Supporting materials posted on the VLE with support provided via discussion boards and comments on their group blogs. • Research skills to underpin future project work modelled – students took part in ‘Fishbowl’ sessions where they fed staff questions as groups were filmed talking about their experiences • Following ‘flipped classroom principles’ and drawing upon Vygotsky (see Cook, J. (2010) Mobile phones as mediating tools within augmented contexts for development.International Journal of Mobile and Blended Learning, 2 (3). pp. 1-12.

Editor's Notes
- Monday Group 4 (4 interviewed) Quack Attack (aurasma channel http://auras.ma/s/bqWlb) Channel works, along with video clips of directions around campus and trigger images. The students chose the course because it was enjoyable and they liked technology side. One student has a big interest in coding and games and wants professional recognition through the degree. Some previous knowledge of AR. The project was really enjoyable and they had fun doing it. They made a couple of small auras including a couple of arrows to appear when moving around campus. They communicated through WhatsApp. Important developments were put up on the blog. Auras could be used within pages to show videos which explain complex ideas. This group seemed to enjoy the task and worked well together.
- Monday Group 1 (1 student interviewed, 4 in group) ‘Button Bashers’ (PDP LFG is their channel,) LFG = lighting fast gamers, note that if you search for this channel there is a space between PDP and LFG Student has had an interest in gaming for a long time and enjoys it. He is particularly interested in gaming backgrounds. This is his first choice university; he likes broad knowledge aspect of course. AR project: no previous knowledge. Had background skills? No but it was easy. Created auras to help each other and classmates identify books. Make quick video to summarise large books. As a group: use 1 machine where 1 person codes and 3 people watch and comment OR use 4 machines next to each other. Has a blog on VLE website. Not used it much. Was more comfortable talking about what he had done rather than himself and his background. The group seemed to have made some progress overall. Video shows the ‘Rubber Duck’ C# programming book and a demonstration of a simple aura. Extracts from their blog: Hello for the Final time.... Even though we have not been able to post as much to the blog as we really would have liked, meeting up as a group have been difficult due to circumstances like having to work, or having assignment deadlines (A) Overall the work that we have done in regard to Augmented Reality has been interesting, and is something we can look back on with future study (L) Being part of a group of hard working individuals has been a good process as has developed personal skills: - Time management (being able to try and work out a time when we are all available to meet up as a group) - Spoken Communication (being able to talk professionally and sensibly) Admittedly there sometimes has been a lack in judgement and sillyness at times but that also comes down to being able to keep a clear head and not get too stressed. Being able to act the fool sometimes can be a nice break (S) -Critical reflection (Although trying to give feedback on OURSELVES can be hard, being part of a group, gives the opportunity to have feedback from how the rest of the group sees eachother) (M) - Working with different skills (each member of our group also was able to bring something else to the table in regards to the work and personal development, be it programming experience in the past, work not necessarily related to computer gaming, or just mainly having a good general attiude and bonding ability to get work done Overall, even though at the beginning this Personal Development Planning we thought was a waste of time, its has been able to give us the acknowledgement of our personal skills and our strengths and weaknesses.
- Tuesday Group 2 (3 interviewed, 4 group members with mainly 3 working) NukeIn Channel Lankybean Auras for Logo – nuclear explosion with radiation symbol superimposed. Beginning Math and Physics, for game programmers by wendy stahal Page56 chapter 2 - Radius The students went on the course because they wanted to go to university, not for any specific career prospects. Did the group have any previous knowledge of AR? Yes from various sources. They haven’t got around to going to the library. 1 student had tried to use the Aurasma app and had found it easy. This group seems extremely unmotivated and unable to make any progress without clear supervision. They get most of their information from the VLE, not from the library. They usually use google and YouTube to find out information. They made a group logo. They communicated face to face in class and used Facebook and Steam to communicate out-of-hours. Ultimately, do you think having done the group task will help you? “It’s a bit of a pain but it will help.”
- Tuesday 9am Group 1 (5 in group – mainly 3 working, 2 interviewed) Red Squadron created some artefacts including a set of arrows around the campus. Trigger Your success … Lab028, Lab027, Lab005, with library this way image, channel is ‘redsquardron’. Also the book 'Evolution' by Mark Ridley. The mic was turned off until halfway through so this is a summary of the last half of the video. They used the Aurasma app to show an animation using the logo (similar to other groups) and communicated using the college email system. Not blogged as much as they should have. Anything related to the library? Put an aura over a book found in the library. They also created some auras around the college which showed signs that pointed to the library for new students.
