Web ever-growing generalization and its use in educational settings is impelling the development of high-quality educational hypermedia applications. Hypermedia systems complexity has promoted the use of abstract hypermedia models to capture the most relevant characteristics of these systems. Current models put the stress on hypermedia components and its hyperlinking structure (e.g. Dexter Mode...

The article summarizes the experience of higher education institutions in Ukraine and Denmark on fashion designers’ project culture formation process undergraduate training. It has been determined that is an integral indicator a specialist’s professional competence, which provides ability for creative project-transformative activity. Based study educational training programs clothing designers ...

Institutional pressures to make optimal use of lecture halls and classrooms can be powerful motivators to identify resources to develop technology enhanced learning approaches to traditional curricula. From the academic’s perspective, engaging students in active learning and reducing the academic workload are important and complementary drivers. This paper presents a case study of a curriculum ...

Our works take place in the research field of distant learning situation observations. We want to help instructional designers to improve the learning scenarios they design within a re-engineering context. We think that the observation of the learners' behavior can be improved by taking into account the observation needs from the designers. We originally think these observation needs can be rel...

The multidisciplinary nature of educational game design requires multidisciplinary teams for product development. Typically such teams consist of game designers, pedagogy experts, and content experts, each of whom must resolve significant and often fascinating ideological disagreements resulting from disparate disciplinary values, vocabulary, and culture. Game designers hope to create a highly ...

Learning Games (LGs) are educational environments based on a playful approach to learning. Their use has proven to be promising in many domains, but is at present restricted by the time consuming and costly nature of the developing process. In this paper, we propose a set of quality indicators that can help the conception team to evaluate the quality of their LG during the designing process, an...

Simulation modelling helps designers to keep track of many possible behaviours in a complex environment. Having a technique to simulate the effect of peer impact on learning allows designers to test the social effects of their educational software. We implement an agent-based simulation model based on the ecological approach (EA) architecture [9]. The model considers learner attributes, learnin...
