Innovation in assessment is no more a choice in a tech-savvy instant age. The purpose of this study was to get more insight into the implementation of formative assessment through the e-learning tool called Black Board (BB) Learning System in our University. The proposal is to implement a series of weekly or fortnightly tests on the BB. These would have options to provide sufficient feedback as...

E-learners are generally adults with work and family constraints who get involved in the virtual campus looking for temporary academic flexibility. However, they are often confronted with collaborative learning activities which lead to additional organizational efforts by reducing their individual time flexibility. In this paper, we argue that time is a major variable in Computer Supported Coll...

While students are studying, practicing, working, or revising, formative assessment provides direction, focus, and guidance. Summative assessment provides the means to evaluate a learner’s achi...

Mit der Unterstützung von Hardware-beschleunigter 3D-Graphik in modernen Web-Browsern ist die Integration von dreidimensionalen Inhalten auf Webseiten möglich geworden. Am Beispiel des QTI-Standards wird gezeigt, wie 3D-Inhalte die Lernerfolgskontrolle in e-Learning-Angeboten bereichern können, was insbesondere im Bereich der Ingenieursund Lebenswissenschaften einen unschätzbaren Mehrwert biete...

This paper examines e-commerce systems in three European countries – Germany, France, and Switzerland – in order to identify characteristics of these systems that might contribute to lower utilization of e-commerce in Europe than in the United States. The paper uses an e-commerce system functional model as a framework for assessing the characteristics of the systems. The European systems are co...

Technical security is only part of E-Commerce security operations; human usability and security perception play major and sometimes dominating factors. For instance, slick websites with impressive security icons but no real technical security are often perceived by users to be trustworthy (and thus more profitable) than plain vanilla websites that use powerful encryption for transmission and se...
