Summary: If you have problems with non us-keyboards and the editor Atom.io install this package: keyboard-localization Shortly longer: Ok, I blogged about my problems with Atom.io before (and before) and the underlying issues aren’t fixed in the chromium parts of Atom.io. Yet there were workarounds: For example I created my own keybinding file, which fixed my most important issue the missing “@” sign (who is using that, anyway?). Now I needed an working “\” in my elixir code.

This blog post is one part of the series “learning diary” for a course at my university. Goal of this report is to take and rate a online learning unit. For the second learning unit we should take a video based course. I watched a course on the platform http://pluralsight.com. Short synopsis of the unit: The course “Building Highly Scalable Web Applications in Azure” is a video based course on the platform http://pluralsight.

This blog post is one part of the series “learning diary” for a course at my university. Goals: Based on the pdf which was provided I assume we will learn something about communities of learners. In the pdf it’s stated that the oldest definition for a university is “a community of learners and teachers”. So I assume we will learn more about the University as a community of teachers and learners.

Recently I ran in a problem with Elixir on Windows, installed via Chocolatey: After an update of the Elixir package: choco upgrade elixir (or a Windows update or something similar) I couldn’t use iex.bat anymore. Every time I tried to open iex.bat I got an crash_dump: {error_logger,{{2015,12,3},{22,35,15}},crash_report,[[{initial_call,{supervisor_bridge,user_sup,['Argument__1']}},{pid,<0.22.0>},{registered_name,[]},{error_info,... (That said, mix still worked…) After several attempts on reinstalling Elixir (and Erlang, just to be sure) I found this comment on the Elixir package on Chocolatey.

Today I attended the exhibition of the OEB in Berlin at the Intercontinental Hotel. I only visited the exhibition, which was free because the fee for the conference it self would have been to much to bear (roughly 480€). I visited some of exhibitors and will here summarize my experience. ITNedu The company is a young startup based in London, specializing in providing access to video content for educational purposes.

This blog post is one part of the series “learning diary” for a course at my university. Goals: Based on the title and the provided links for that unit I assume we will learn something about the discourse in chats, forums and co. The links provided were about the Minerva Project (an online university) and an article as response to the first link (so, pro and con about the Minerva project).

This blog post is one part of the series “learning diary” for a course at my university. Goals: Based on the title and the provided pdf for that unit I assume we will learn how to evaluate and compare different examination methods for different kinds of learning goals. I think we will consider target groups, the goal of the examination and several other aspects of online examination. In the end I hope I’ll be able to create my own online examination because we need to create multiple choice tests later on.

I’m currently on my way to learn a little bit of Elixir. I like the idea of functional programming language made easy. For starters I’m doing all the tutorials I can find. My most recent tutorial was the Channels Tutorial of the Phoenix Framework. As I did the tutorial, I encountered a problem: My socket.js file was concatenated in the app.js file via Brunch.io but the promised message “Joined successfully” did not show up in the console.

I attended the Codemotion 2015 in Berlin last week and made a overview for my colleagues. ** Codemotion Berlin 2015 recap ** from Torben Dohrn

This blog post is one part of the series “learning diary” for a course at my university. Goals: Besides the headline “Didaktical-methodological Design” an additional hint to a book was provided “Schulmeister, Ralf, Hypermedia Learning Systems”. Because of that I investigated a little bit about hyper media learning systems. For example what hyper media learning system means… Turns out, hyper media is a word creation from hypertext and media. It describes systems where media content is linked to to other media content (in contrast to hypertext, where foot notes, citations and text is linked together).
