Establishment of an Afghanistan Online University

30/01/2022/in Allgemein, Conference, h_da, Lecture, Project, Teaching/by Kawa Nazemi

The Human-Computer Interaction and Visual Analytics group of the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences led the technical sessions on the first conference on establishing the Afghanistan Online University. Prof. Dr. Kawa Nazemi was assigned to the steering committee and the coordination team of the envisaged university.

The Afghanistan Online University aims to provide young persons of Afghan origin living outside Afghanistan – notably those living in refugee camps and other precarious settings – the opportunity to acquire general professional competencies and expertise in Afghan culture and society. A comprehensive system of online teaching, learning, and examination concurrently ensure the accessibility of the study provisions for young persons living in Afghanistan.

Students will be prepared to be professionally active in tune with their competencies all over the world and contribute to a desirable future of Afghanistan. A mix of professors and junior academics both from various countries of the world and of Afghan origin – among them those having lost the opportunity to serve universities in Afghanistan – can contribute to academic quality in all disciplines represented and the enhancement of knowledge on Afghan culture and society. Cooperation in teaching and research will be encouraged between scholars employed at this online university, those at a partner institution to be found for each discipline, and persons from many countries and institutions to be involved on a part-time basis.

Study programs on bachelor and master level, similar in length to the dominant „Bologna“ practices, as well as doctoral training will be provided – as customary at most open universities in the world – in the humanities, social sciences, and economic sciences, actually in 10 fields: Language and literature, education, psychology, social work, sociology, political science, journalism/communication science, economics, business studies, and additionally in IT/computer science. Master programs might specialize in certain topics (e.g. natural resources management) or interdisciplinary (e.g., gender studies). These fields are likely to be enriched by a creative dialogue between the theories, methods, and findings and the specifics of culture and society of Afghan culture and society. No study programs are envisaged in fields requiring substantial laboratory work or internships, of a clear universalistic knowledge base, and a sole national or regional thrust. Further education and continuing professional education programs might be added in the future.

Altogether, 60 professors and the same number of junior academic staff (FTE), supported by a substantial number of administrative staff, have to be employed for the ten disciplines to cover half of the teaching assignments and to be the backbone of research. A quarter of teaching each will be taken care of by scholars of the partner institutions and scholars from all over the world being involved part-time. Altogether, about 5,000 students can be accommodated, and a further increase can be realized with limited additional resources.

The online university will strive for high academic quality, a convincing link between academic quality and professional relevance, a guarantee of academic freedom, as well as support of the academic areas and of those persons suffering most under current adverse political conditions in Afghanistan, i.e., ethnic and religious minorities as well as women.

Kick-off Meeting of the Project “Digitallabor Groß-Gerau – Dozenturio”

24/01/2022/in Allgemein, Project, Research, Technology/by Kawa Nazemi

Digitization and digital education are playing an increasingly important role in career guidance, career preparation, and vocational education. Various open technologies and didactic approaches are available that can be used for digital teaching in vocational education.

However, basic digital education and knowledge about the possibilities of digital teaching are often lacking. The VIS-Group is cooperating with the Groß-Gerau district and the Center for Applied Computer Science at the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences to provide a single-source of learning materials and learning technologies in the “Dozenturio” learning system.

The intermediate results of the project were introduced in December 15th 2021 by the VIS-Group. The event started with a welcome by the District Administrator Thomas Will followed by the main goals and conceptual structure by Nicole Möhlenkamp from the Department of Education and Schools – Youth Vocational Assistance, Qualification, and Employment. Among others, representatives of the adult education centers of the district and the city of Rüsselsheim am Main, the municipal job center of the district of Groß-Gerau, the state education authority and the IT center of the district were present. District Administrator Thomas Will and First District Deputy Walter Astheimer also took part in the panel discussion.

The project website already includes various video training courses on communication systems, various selected OER learning platforms (OER: Open Educational Resources), and a variety of technologies to enable both the digital transformation and the didactical transformation of digital content. The platform is accessible to anyone who wants to learn about digital teaching and communication through www.dozenturio.de.

The goal of the project is to develop qualification modules for digital teaching, learning, advising, and communicating. In addition, demand-oriented training offers for employees of the district as well as for regional educational institutions are planned. As part of the training and qualification budget of the state of Hesse. The district of Groß-Gerau has been provided with funds for the implementation of digital learning offerings for the period from September 1, 2020 to August 31, 2022, which will be used for the project described. With this funding program, the district of Groß-Gerau is taking advantage of the opportunities offered by digitization and opening up access opportunities for multipliers, teachers, and advisors.

Kickoff of the European Project “Partnerships with Eastern Europe”

04/01/2021/in Action, Allgemein, h_da, Lecture, News, Project, Research, Teaching/by Dirk Burkhardt

With the kickoff of the European collaboration project “Partnerships with Eastern Europe”, the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences, and particularly our team, has decided to focus more on European cooperation. Our exchange project funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) includes partners from Russia, Romania and Poland and aims at strengthening the collaboration with Eastern Europe.

Subject of our collaboration activities are machine learning and information visualization with a strong collaboration with the Technical University of Ulyanovsk in Russia. The project is set up for three years and involves various faculties of the Darmstadt University.

Kickoff of the e-Learning Project Digitallabor

04/09/2020/in Action, Allgemein, News, Project, Research/by Dirk Burkhardt

With the kickoff of the e-Learning project Digitallabor, we are supporting the education and training strategy of digital teaching in vocational training. Especially the COVID-19 crisis increased the need for solutions and approaches to enable digital trainings. However, there are many challenges, starting with the required infrastructure, moving further to pedagogic strategies and ending in individual electronic learning features.

In the project, any step has to be cover. Together with the project partners in the field of digital education, it is intended to use the opportunities offered by digitization for vocational education and training and to open up access possibilities for multipliers and teachers.
