Learnersourcing: Student-generated Content @ Scale (original) (raw)

Proceedings of the Ninth ACM Conference on Learning @ Scale

The first annual workshop on Learnersourcing: Student-generated Content @ Scale is taking place at Learning @ Scale 2022. This hybrid workshop will expose attendees to the ample opportunities in the learnersourcing space, including instructors, researchers, learning engineers, and many other roles. We believe participants from a wide range of backgrounds and prior knowledge on learnersourcing can both benefit and contribute to this workshop, as learnersourcing draws on work from education, crowdsourcing, learning analytics, data mining, ML/NLP, and many more fields. Additionally, as the learnersourcing process involves many stakeholders (students, instructors, researchers, instructional designers, etc.), multiple viewpoints can help to inform what future student-generated content might be useful, new and better ways to assess the quality of the content and spark potential collaboration efforts between attendees. We ultimately want to show how everyone can make use of learnersourcing and have participants gain hands-on experience using existing tools, create their own learnersourcing activities using them or their own platforms, and take part in discussing the next challenges and opportunities in the learnersourcing space. Our hope is to attract attendees interested in scaling the generation of instructional and assessment content and those interested in the use of online learning platforms.
