Semantic Web for E-learning Bottlenecks: Disorientation and Cognitive Overload
نویسندگان
چکیده
Web environments provide learners with a great amount of information and various environments and opportunities that they can use to navigate, yet problems may occur as a result of the abundant choices and flexibility provided by these Web-based environments. Among these problems disorientation and cognitive overload in hypermedia are important bottlenecks. But recently emerging semantic web is considered as an important solution point for these problems. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potentials to decrease or overcome the problems related to disorientation and cognitive overload of Semantic Web substructure and its components in the Web environment. For this purpose, this study first discus Semantic Web, disorientation in Hypermedia, and cognitive overload. Following this, Semantic Web components and the features of these components are examined to evaluate the potentials to decrease or overcome disorientation and cognitive overload in hypermedia learning environments.

Personalized learning pathways have been advocated by didactic experts to overcome the problem of disorientation and information overload in technology enhanced learning (TEL). They are not only relevant for providing user-adaptive navigational support, but can also be used for composing learning objects into new personalized courses (sequencing and assembly). In this paper we investigate, how ...
