Uppsala Learning Lab started the activities at October 1st, 1999. It is part of the Swedish Learning Lab (SweLL) <http://www.swedishlearninglab.org/>, which consists of Uppsala University, Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and Karolinska Institutet, in co-operation with Stanford University. The aim is to explore the potentials of ICT-supported learning in university education. Funding from the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Kan jag f� pengar fr�n Learning Lab?

Nej, f�r n�rvarande �r de tillg�ngliga medlen intecknade.

De medel som Knut och Alice Wallenbergs stiftelse ansl�r f�rdelas p� m�nga verksamheter vid fyra l�ros�ten och denna f�rdelning avg�rs  i samverkan mellan dels partnerna inom Swedish Learning Lab, dels den internationella organisationen  Wallenberg Global Learning Network. Starten blir tv� pilotprojekt, ett om nya virtuella och fysiska m�tesplatser f�r l�rande och ett om bioinformatik. Projektperioden �r �ren 2000 och 2001. Nyligen har Wallenbergstiftelsen beviljar medel f�r den ans�kan som inl�mnades 31 oktober 1999 (se nedan under rubriken "Proposal").

Dessa pilotprojekt har planerats i samverkan mellan Uppsala universitet, KTH, Karolinska Institutet och Stanford University. I Uppsala utgick planeringen fr�n bl.a. intresseanm�lningar som fl�t in fr�n universitetets l�rare under v�ren 1999. Ett villkor f�r att verksamheter skulle kunna beredas utrymme var att flera av de fyra l�ros�tena kunde engageras p� meningsfullt s�tt. Ingen utlysning av nya medel �r omedelbart  f�rest�ende. Om Wallenbergstiftelsen ansl�r ytterligare medel eller om externa medel tillf�res kan eventuellt fler projekt startas under pilotperiodperioden 2000-2001. D�refter, fr.o.m. �r 2002, planeras en fem�rig period med utrymme f�r nya projekt.

 ABSTRACT

Uppsala is not only Sweden�s oldest university, founded in 1477. It is also the most comple, today comprising education and research in fields such as engineering, medicine and teacher training which elsewhere often form separate schools. Therefore all conceivable kinds of information technology applications exist within the campus. I will focus my talk on one recent major endeavor, the Swedish Learning Lab.

 The Swedish Learning Lab is a joint effort by the three Swedish educational institutions Uppsala University, Karolinska institutet and Royal Institute of Technology, in collaboration with Stanford University. It is funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation. There are close ties to the Stanford Learning Lab as well as with partners within the Wallenberg Global Learning Network (WGLN). Major aims during the initial pilot period 2000-2001 are to

An application for two pilot projects was delivered on Oct 31st 1999:

Project 1. New Meeting Places for Learning
Experiment 1 - Distributed Interactive Learning Spaces (DILS)
Track 1. Communicative Spaces
Track 2. The impact of distributed project teams on learning excellence
Track 3. Working across time zones and cultures in globally distributed project teams

Experiment 2 - Content archives, student portfolios & 3D environments (APE)
Track A. Content and Context in Mathematics education
Track B. Digital resources in the humanities
Track C. 3D communication and visualization environments
Track D. Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacology, the Janus learning site

Experiment 3 - Interactive Simulation of Patients - a Virtual Learning space  (ISP-VL)

Project 2. Bioinformatics. Learning in information intense, dynamic and cross disciplinary environments

There will also be a visiting scholars program and other activities.

INBJUDAN

fr�n Uppsala Learning Lab <www.learninglab.uu.se>

L�rare vid Uppsala universitet h�lsas hj�rtligt v�lkomna till lunchsamtal hos Uppsala Learning Lab Hur kan informationstekniken p� b�sta s�tt nyttjas i universitetsutbildningen?

Det �r den centrala fr�gan f�r Learning Lab, som �r en samverkan mellan Uppsala Universitet, KTH, Karolinska Institutet och Stanford University. Uppsala Learning Lab pr�var nya pedagogiska och tekniska l�sningar, utforskar nya slags fysiska och virtuella rum f�r l�rande, samt utvecklar nya s�tt f�r l�rare och studenter att skapa eget digitalt undervisningsmaterial. Verksamheten skall ske i samverkan med universitets l�rare, som h�rmed inbjudes till lunchsamtal i Uppsala Learning Labs gula hus i Observatorieparken (Kyrkog�rdsgatan 2c). Det blir informella gemensamma diskussioner efter en kort inledning till dagens �mne. En sm�rg�s eller sallad kommer att serveras.
