Three Things to Think • Context and time • Experience grounds learning and reflection • Ach So! : mobile video tool for learning
What are the main challenges for learning in construction sector?
What are the main challenges for learning in construction sector? Harsh conditions Lack of time and space Difficult to predict moments for the need to learn new tools, practices, and materials
How to support learning, when the work is connected to physical practices, places and unique situations?
How to support learning, when the work is connected to physical practices, places and unique situations? Make learning possible as part of the work. Make learning possible in situ. Provide tools to enhance learning in a network. (Kooken et al., 2007, Kerosuo and Toiviainen, 2011, Mørch and Skaanes 2010)

Learning through Experiences Experiences may suggest changes of practices. The need to change pushes reflective processing of the situations… …which results as new practices (habits). Peirce, C. S.

Reflection in the moment Moments of doubts and inspiration. Feeling of irritation, annoyance. Clues and hints help us to understand where the irritation comes from. Moments of qualitative immediacy.

How to Enhance Reflection? When experience triggers reflection, a tool may turn that reflection into visible and shareable action. Such tool can make a common (or an uncommon) execution of a task into a shared object for e.g. improvement.

http://achso.aalto.fi Ach So!
Inspired by AnViAnno, a proof of concept app for video annotation with Android devices (by RWTH – Aachen). • Redesign and develop a mobile tool for learning in construction • Agile design and development: iterations, testing, more development.
reflection enact experience : record annotate share Genres to help getting started : site visit, problem, trick of trade, good work.
Clips to be stored in device and in cloud. ..short clips, very short clips.. Use automatic meta-data for recommendations: location, time, author etc. Social Semantic Server tries to infer workplaces and routines
Future research and development • More research on the use in the wild: • Learning experience / collaborative learning / social networks. • Organizational issues. • Social and political questions. • Better support for harsh conditions • record clips with wearable cameras (GoPro bridge) • Other ways to record without using hands (glasses?) • More annotation options • tricks with the annotation marker • hand-drawn annotations • voice annotations (and voice to text?)
When you carry Ach So! with you, you know to keep your eyes open for learning experiences.
