Abstract: The learning module “Drought in California” presented here is part of an adaptive web-based learning platform developed in the framework of the Space4Geography project, funded by the German Aerospace Centre (Space Administration). The project seeks to facilitate the application of satellite images in schools and to enable students to work with original remote-sensing data on geographic questions. The development process of the module was informed scientifically by Educational Design Research. The research approach involves practitioners and scientists in the development process and aims to (1) ensure the practice-oriented, motivating and learning-efficient character of the learning module, and (2) contribute to educational theory in the field of remote-sensing education. This paper presents the prototype of the adaptive learning module, the development of which was based on results from an analysis of national curricula and an online survey on requirements for a learning environment. This prototype will be evaluated and developed further in several test cycles before being implemented in school practice. Keywords: remote-sensing education, adaptive learning platform, satellite images, Educational Design Research, design-based research Published Online: 2016/06/29 10:46:38 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5576 0x00340066 Rights:https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/4.0/
GI_Forum publishes high quality original research across the transdisciplinary field of Geographic Information Science (GIScience). The journal provides a platform for dialogue among GI-Scientists and educators, technologists and critical thinkers in an ongoing effort to advance the field and ultimately contribute to the creation of an informed GISociety. Submissions concentrate on innovation in education, science, methodology and technologies in the spatial domain and their role towards a more just, ethical and sustainable science and society. GI_Forum implements the policy of open access publication after a double-blind peer review process through a highly international team of seasoned scientists for quality assurance. Special emphasis is put on actively supporting young scientists through formative reviews of their submissions. Only English language contributions are published.
