Get to know our partners and co-organizers on journey of introducing ICT solutions to education in Western Balkans region. In parallel with our two-day conference, we also organised a fair where over 30 ICT companies and educational institutions presented the latest technological solutions in education that they developed or introduced to the market. The participants were able to visit their stands, try out interactive classroom solutions, find out how to use the internet for high quality teaching and see a micro:bit devices for coding. 

Fair exhibitors:

Dejan Bošković

Dejan works in a primary school 'Ivo Andrić' in Belgrade as a biology teacher since 2000 and third year as an assistant director. He tries to use a new approach during his classes to help his students see the environmental problems from multiple angles and to deal with them independently as much as possible. 

He is running a blog called 'Biological blog' and writes articles on a daily basis in order to inform teachers about the latest news in teaching, as well as in science. The blog is very visited and monitored by teachers from across the country and region. So, his "job" is to be informed about the newest trends and innovations which is why he decided to join our team.

Online teaching but not as you know it!

26 FEBRUARY AT 15.15 | HALL 'INSERT'

This session focuses on the application of Learning Design (LD) approach to redesigning of a face-to-face course for online delivery. A significant import of the LD approach is in engendering systematic exploration of the design space and better reveals opportunities and risks within. LD approach shows promise in tackling common problems associated with online-course design and delivery.

Dejan is a lecturer at the Kingston University in London. Dejan's research in Technology Enhanced Learning has contributed to prominent UK research programmes. His present focus is in applying research to practice, exemplified in a software tool, that Dejan developed, for systematic development and refinement of curriculum design methods, processes and products.     

DEJAN LJUBOJEVIĆ

Helping teachers to understand and master the use of ICT

working group | new technologies in higher education 

Dejan is a lecturer at the Kingston University in London. He talked about ICT-driven, but also ICT-enabled, transformation which is endemic across the board of activities and roles, for both lecturers and students in the 21st century Higher Education. He also presented the field of Learning Design (LD) which was motivated into existence by the mission to assist in managing this transformation. Key tenet of LD is that of Teaching as Design Science.

His present focus is in applying research to practice, exemplified in a model and a software tool for systematic development and refinement of curriculum design methods, processes and products.

PRESENTATION

Towards Timeless Goals using Timely Means

The presentation revisits Freire’s Critical Pedagogy in the context of current state of EdTech. Through the prism of EDTech the focus is on two key problems Freire identified: reduction of coercive tension inherent in teacher-learner dynamic, and, promotion of student self-reflection and self-realization, leading to the transition from being an object in the world to being a subject in the world.

 

Dejan Movrin

Additive technologies in higher education

27 FEBRUARY AT 14.45 | HALL 'INSERT'

Additive technologies, also known as rapid prototyping technologies, enable quick materialisation (physical creation of 3D computer models). This lecture will present possible uses of new additive technologies devices in higher education both as a part of lectures and during projects and graduation pieces done by students at the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad.

Dejan works as an assistant professor at the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad. He is actively working in the area of additive technologies since 2009 and has been working successfully with 3D-CADDIT company from Belgrade.
