Problems/questions are indispensable in the teaching and learning process. Adequate problems/questions give essential motivation for learning. Problems/questions with adequate quality in various testing conditions are believed to enable teachers to assess individual students' capability and readiness of transfer in specific domain knowledge. Despite this, there are still many areas in need of systematic investigation to promote knowledge and skills on problems/questions-centered learning approach, including learning by problem solving and/or generation. For instance: what criteria constitute as adequate test item quality (in addition to frequently cited psychometric index like item difficulty, discrimination index); how to best assess learner's capability with appropriate quality level within constraints (e.g., an optimal number of items, time limitation, etc.); any feasible metadata heuristics and/or techniques for problems/questions selection; any promising alternative strategies for compiling a sufficient number of problems/questions; any scaffolding techniques for question-generation implementation and instructional diffusion and so on.
From ICCE 2006 to 2018, we held a series of 11 workshops where we paid special attention to "questions/problems" in technology-enhanced learning. We have established SIG of "Technology Enhanced Learning by Posing Problems/Questions" in 2015. This 12th workshop is the fifth workshop organized by the SIG. This continuous workshop will provide a good and timely opportunity to present and share the results and issues about "problems/questions" and grow the SIG community.
We cordially invite presenters and participants who are interested in "problems/questions" in computer-supported education/learning environment. We would like to discuss the many facets and potential uses of "problems/questions" from a technological, computational, pedagogical, psychometrics, theoretical, sociological and administrative point of views. In addition to oral presentation sessions for research papers, we have a training session on the Question Formulation Technique and how it can be used with digital technologies, and a tutorial session on Augmented Thermal Perception to Problem-Solving via Technology-Enhanced Modules.

| 11:50-12:20 | Tutorial Session: "Augmented Thermal Perception to Problem-Solving via Technology-Enhanced Modules" |
| Instructors: Shannon H. Sung, Charles Xie (Concord Consortium, USA) | |
| In this tutorial, we demonstrate the Smartphone Application called SmartIR that augments thermal perception of users to solve scientific problems during investigation. We will introduce how to use the three augmented thermal perception (ATP) tools to engage in scientific practices through prediction-observation-explanation (POE) cycle. We will also showcase the tool recently developed to explore possibilities of crowdsourcing the Infrared Street View through citizen science project. The SmartIR can not only be used to promote problem-solving skills, but it can also stimulate the users to pose more questions with the "additional" sensuous experience through thermal vision. | |
| 12:20-13:30 | Lunch |
| 13:30-14:20 | Session (III) |
| Chair: Yusuke Hayashi (Hiroshima University, Japan) | |
| The Effects of Different Procedural Prompts on Online Student-Generated Question Performance (short paper) | |
| Fu-Yun Yu, Wen-Wen Cheng | |
| Questions and Ethical Dilemmas within a Design-Based Research Project (full paper) | |

| 14:20-14:40 | Coffee Break |
| 14:40-15:40 | Training Session: "Exploring the Question Formulation Technique" |
| Instructor: Jon Mason (Charles Darwin University, Australia) | |
| This session will introduce participants to a powerful yet simple tool for shifting classroom dynamics toward students when questioning becomes the focus. Too often, the teacher occupies the dominant position in asking questions. If you are interested in inquiry-based learning & want to teach your students how to 'think in questions' then please join us. Application of digital technologies with this technique will also be explored. | |
| 15:40-16:10 | Community Building Session for APSCE SIG: "Educational Use of Problems/Questions in Technology-Enhanced Learning" |
