The knowledge society requires life-long learning and flexible learning environment that enables fast, just-in-time and relevant learning, aiding the development of communities of knowledge, linking learners and practitioners with experts. Based upon semantic wiki, a combination of wiki and Semantic Web technology, this paper designs and develops a flexible e-learning environment aiming to motivate...
In recent years, Podcast technology has got more and more attention in the evolving Web technologies, and it has been a key member of Web 2.0 technologies. The technology has great potential effect on education, and there have some application research activities, especially in distance education and e-Learning environment. How can this technology affect China education system? How can this technology...
This paper focuses on the automatic construction of course ontology from Chinese digital textbook. At first, some models are constructed for textbook, including definition and concept. And then, based on these models, a method of automatic construction of course ontology is proposed, which is called TB-MECG. With this method, differentiating from other ontology learning, the intension of concept can...
New generation ubiquitous e-Learning system is the key for merging ubiquitous learning into the mainstream of education. FekLoma is such a u-Learning system, which is specially designed according to the requirements of ubiquitous e-Learning environments by bottom-up approach. The system is developed with ULO technologies, and is realized with programmable and extensible programming facility. Based...
The paper focuses on the field of research on next generational e-Learning facility, in which knowledge-enhanced systems are the most important candidates. In the paper, a reference architecture based on the technologies of knowledge engineering is proposed, which has following three intrinsic characteristics, first, education ontologies are used to facilitate the integration of static learning resource...
In recent years, there are some new directions in learning resource management and sharing research field, which mainly focus on innovative methods to promote sharing and reusing learning resource in modular manner, to create system with capabilities suitable for personalized learning and mobile learning. The feature of adaptive capability becomes more and more important in these systems. These requirements...
The case study, based on collaborative knowledge building theory, investigated online interaction characteristics and knowledge building of students who used the knowledge forum (KF) to discuss course-related content. Collected data included the discussion transcripts of a postgraduate course during one semester and students interview records. Content analysis was used to examine student participation...
This paper presents a method of teaching English, based on the technology of multi-media, mobile facility. This method is based on individualized system of instruction (ISI), which can be used on other subjects learning. The platform is an application on the Web-based diagnostic test evaluation and feedback adaptive learning system, aimed at teaching through information technology and content integration,...
Sharing, re-purposing of learning resources are directions of e-learning system, and the developing semantic technology has potential to provide more advanced solutions for these requirements. There have been many research efforts in this direction. However, existing solutions have many weaknesses on resources usability and system availability. The paper proposes a feasible architecture for constructing...
The diversity of mobile terminals, the limitations of hardware and the instability of wireless networks have put forward challenges to the development of the mobile software which should be fit to the learnerspsila needs of learning in mobile environment. Based on the study of M-learning and semantic LCMS, the authorspsila team has developed software which can satisfy the above demand. The software...
This paper presents an innovative application of a management system, Learning Star, based on the use of handheld supported ubiquitous learning environments. The system is an application on the Web-based diagnostic test evaluation and the adaptive learning system by feedback, aimed at learning by PDA, WENQUXING, &.The system is based on modern pedagogy, psychology and theory and method of combining...
DubinCore, LOM resource description norm and Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) standard based on the idea of metadata have solved the sharing problem of static Web resources, by bringing forward description norms of Web resources sharing. However, the modular sharing research of dynamic teaching assistant resources, such as questions and answers database and case database, is almost...
Online discussion forums provide open workspace allowing learners to share information, exchange ideas, address problems and discuss on specific themes. But the substantial impediment to its promotion as effective e-learning facility lies in the continuously increasing postings but with discrete and incoherent structure as well as the loosely-tied learners with response-freeness. This paper proposes...
This paper proposes a conceptual design framework for mobile learning (mLearning) mainly based on the reflection and action research results of Nokia Mobiledu project, which was launched in China and is targeted especially for learning English. The framework involves five stages: mLearning activity design, requirement and constraint analysis, mLearning scenario design, mLearning technology environment...
Parent-child's relationships has attracted more and more attention reveals the lack of exploration of advanced technology in family education. Based on the collaborative project between Beijing Normal University and NOKIA, this article concerns about the prospects of providing services in family education by using mobile technology. This project is conducted by virtue of the combination of qualitative...
