Although many of the existing adaptive learning environments use other approaches, the vector-space model for information retrieval can be used in providing individualized learning with hypermedia. A system employing a modified version of the vector-space model is described. The approach taken is tested in a real-life setting to evaluate and train basic arithmetics skills of learners in element...

This study developed web-based courseware applying van Hiele theory in order to offer different levels of content for figure learning for elementary mathematics students. In mathematics education, it is difficult to increase educational efficiency by conducting individual learning according to student ability because of the large differences in student levels, in addition to high populations in...

We have developed a visualization system for dialog text exchanged in e-learning virtual classrooms. In this system, text-based online discussions among learners are effectively visualized as discussions held in a virtual classroom in cyberspace. Discussion participants are displayed as avatars. The virtual classroom maintains the interest of learners because it incorporates professional camera...

This research aims at finding desirable Internet uses for more efficient classroom management through designing and implementing a web-based classroom support system. It has been possi...

Learners working on the creation of conceptual maps become involved in a creative learning activity that involves “making sense” of new concepts and their relationships through modelling. These models can be seen as representations of the learners’ understanding of a particular topic domain. During subsequent learning activities, students can reflect upon the models they have built. In addition...
