Learning Design Engines as Remote Control to Learning Support Environments

Learning Design Engines as Remote Control to Learning Support Environments

Context: Chapter 5 of the Learning Design book describes the operational model of a learning design engine based on the concept of finite automata with output alphabet. We rely on this event concept to include pre-existing learning tools in flexibe and rich learning designs. Contribution: We sketch an approach for the integration of complex learning environments in learning designs. Interactive...

Remote Exploratoriums: Combining Network Media and Design Environments to Support Engaged Learning Remote Exploratoriums: Combining Network Media and Design Environments

In an educational context, World Wide Web clients such as NCSA Mosaic® are of limited value because they put learners in the role of information absorbers. Drawing on a museum analogy, learners using Mosaic can be perceived, similar to museum visitors, as passive observers of exhibits. Despite the richness of exhibits in terms of the amount of information as well as the use of multimedia, activ...

willingness to communicate in the iranian context: language learning orientation and social support

why some learners are willing to communicate in english, concurrently others are not, has been an intensive investigation in l2 education. willingness to communicate (wtc) proposed as initiating to communicate while given a choice has recently played a crucial role in l2 learning. it was hypothesized that wtc would be associated with language learning orientations (llos) as well as social suppo...

Designing support to facilitate learning in powerful electronic learning environments

The Collaborative Learning in the e-Learning Environments

Introduction: The collaborative learning and interactive electronic-learning (e- learning) is one of the key factors in education system success. This study examined the collaborative e-learning in the framework of constructivism theory. Methods: This is a review article. The databases such as Scientific Information Databases, Magiran, Science Direct, and Google Scholar were reviewed. Also,...
