Course objectives
The course topic is quite unique and represents a unique combination of educational psychology with disciplines such as design, learning environments, psychology of reading, gamification, UX and other areas. The emphasis is on self-reading and the ability to apply theoretical knowledge to the design of educational activities. The course is not taught to this extent anywhere outside of KISK. It is largely covered by the monograph Pedagogical-Psychological Issues in Online Education. The aim of the course is to introduce the basic concepts and possibilities of pedagogical psychology in online education, but also topics more closely related to this concept (e.g. sociability, cybernetics, gamification, ...). The emphasis will be on the connection between education through web services and pedagogical psychological determinants.
