INTED24 Valencia March 2024

The International Technology, Education and Development Conference (INTED) 2024 in Valencia was once again a shining example of the ongoing dialog and innovation in the field of digital education. As a meeting point for professionals, educators and researchers from around the world, the conference served as a platform for the exchange of ground-breaking ideas and practice-oriented solutions aimed at reshaping the landscape of education in the digital age. Valencia, with its rich history and cultural diversity, provided the perfect backdrop for a conference that focused on the future of education in our increasingly connected world. In between sessions, participants had the opportunity to enjoy the city's stunning architecture, vibrant markets and warm hospitality, which made the experience even more enriching. We were able to contribute our topics as presentations - offering important insights into the design of digital learning environments and the challenges of virtual exams.

Didactic design patterns: case studies for virtual collaborative learning

Anne Jantos presents the development of digital skills through virtual collaborative learning (VCL). The use of case studies in VCL environments was highlighted as an essential approach to bridge the gap between theory and practice and to promote the acquisition of digital competences. The study emphasized that careful design of case studies is crucial to effectively develop students' digital skills in authentic contexts. By applying didactic theories and specific design patterns for VCL, this approach provides practical guidelines for educators aiming to enhance digital skills development in their courses.

Online vs. face-to-face exams: Deterrence theory and cheating behavior

Lydia Kilz presented the comparison of online and face-to-face exams and the associated cheating behavior. The study, based on a survey of 215 students, shed light on how perceptions of cheating opportunities and fear of detection influence cheating behavior in different exam environments. The results showed that students perceive a higher potential for cheating in online exams and are therefore more likely to engage in dishonest behavior. These findings call for a re-evaluation of assessment strategies in virtual learning environments and suggest that raising the level of challenge of tasks can effectively reduce cheating.

Impact of AI on DigCompEdu for HE Teaching

Anne Jantos and Lisa-Marie Langesee presented a study on the impact of AI on the competences of HE teachers according to the DigCompEdu framework. The study with 42 teachers from eleven German universities showed a positive perception of AI tools for the 22 DigCompEdu competencies. The study recommends that universities support teachers in integrating AI into teaching in order to improve the quality of education. This presentation underlines the role of AI in the development of future-proof teaching skills.
