Goal: Teaching students how to deal with metadatain the context of their learning processesfor the exchange of knowledge and informationwithin a professional community of a network of students,
teachers and researchers

Metadata – what is it?
metadata• title• type and format• author information• action moments• thumbnail• keywords• access information• access rights• grades• ratings• comments

Assumptions
• students learn from each other• both individual and group work• upon own initiative and under supervision• including reflection and feedback

InfoBase – goal(s)
Goal: Teaching students how to deal with metadatain the context of their learning processesfor the exchange of knowledge and informationwithin a professional community of a network of students,
teachers and researchers
• research related• didactic• technical• strategic
April 22, 2023 6
Goal – research related
A scientific approachto deal with information and communicationthrough the application of metadata• scientific evaluation
The metadata system as complex adaptive system• the system is the means as well as the result of social
processes• flexibility – changing circumstances• robustness – value matrix
April 22, 2023 7
Goal – didactic
Development of a methodto add, exchange and manage
metadata in the context of learning processes
Implementation in a learning path
with increasing responsibility for the student
• programmed instructions,• network exercises and • own management and
community forming

Goal – technical
A digital environmentfor the support of a learning
path
with which students canstore, exchange and manage the (scientific) information that they collect and produce,
individually, in groups, and collectively,
in an independent manner,
with the help of metadata

Goal – strategic
To encourage students through the systemto learn from each other and to learn to work together as
young professionalsby offering them the possibility to compare their
assignments and designs directly and immediately
Teach students to deal with the relativity of the system
and with the paradox that a database loses informative quality when it is cleaned up to be a “neat” database

CLAIMSConstruct
Emotion
Relations
Factsthe influence of the
design on the user and vice versa
users /culture
feeling /opinion
idea / building
type
components /characteristics
the emotion that the design elicits
the factual elements that one uses to
express the idea
the idea thatone tries to
represent in the design
KeySet – universally applicable metadata system

• construct: It means… It is meant to be…
• relations: They know more about it
• facts: It is… objective
• emotion: I find… subjective

oh no! hot again!nice indeed, let’s go!
The use of metadata – exampleNice weather for the beach!

Studentwork evaluation – results
“What was the advantage for you of looking at the work at others?”
• inspiration / ideas• comparison of speed or level• learned something• insight related to the relativity of metadata
• “you want to know why that person chose just those claims”
• “you see what others think about these keywords”• “everyone describes his/her detail very differently”• “my detail had another context”

Other applications
• We developed a number of applications using the InfoBase system
• Support communication• Knowledge management
