3D virtual worlds, such as Second Life, are increasingly being used for delivering e-learning for different genres of students. As part of an ongoing research to evaluate different digital design aspects of using these emergent virtual learning environments, the aim of this paper is to investigate whether the overall satisfaction of students from their 3D learning spaces is dependent on their s...

For e-learning systems to be successful, proper understanding of the learner is crucial. This can be done with the use of learners’ profiles. However, there is a need for the availability of such information for mobile learning environments to make it available when the learner roams between different spaces. This paper investigates the application of RFID technologies for this use. We suggest ...

Today’s science graduates are more likely to become scientists without postgraduate research training, yet they seldom possess the skills to work as scientists. There is therefore a need for undergraduate students to not only learn scientific concepts, but also be able to inquire using scientifically sound methods. This ALTC funded project has investigated how Australian university educators ar...

Idevelop the concept of built pedagogy to account for the ways that built environments teach valuesthrough their constraints upon social action and interaction and...

Carrying out collaborative learning activities (supported by technologies or not) typically involves the coordination of multiple participants, in their dynamic assignment to groups and roles and in the distribution of resources and tools to specific group or individuals. While the mechanisms required to address these coordination aspects in digital educational spaces have been largely studied,...

In this article, we explore the methodological aspects for the longitudinal evaluation of a mass communication system that brings together a physically distributed educational community. There is a significant body of related research, but no integrated approach. In the 70’s and 80’s, early video-art installations have explored the links between television, architectural space and community ide...

Sociocultural accounts of education emphasise that learning occurs in and through mediated interactions with the world; technology in education mediates those interactions, and commonly strives to create distinctive experiences centred upon particular spaces. Yet, until relatively recently, most analyses have typically underemphasised those spatial aspects of how technology in education functio...
