Due to the growing interest in data mining and the educational system, educational data mining is the emerging topic for research community. The various techniques of data mining like classification and clustering can be applied to bring out hidden knowledge from the educational data. Web video mining is retrieving the content using data mining techniques from World Wide Web. There are two approaches...
Smart devices applications can assist children in improving their learning capabilities and comprehension skills. However most applications are built without taking into consideration the effective needs and background of Arab children and youth. They are somehow incompatible with their local environment. We propose in this paper an Arabic-based mobile educational system that displays illustrations...
Some complex problems in the computational area are learning programming and algorithms. Authoring system is a subject that can be considered as complex as it integrates the use of scripting language like Action Script in Flash, Active Server Pages (ASP) and Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP). The normal problem that resides when it comes to programming is handling error as it is not an easy task and for...
Problem based learning (PBL) is an instructional method that is known to offer students with knowledge suitable for problem solving. In order to test this assertion the process of problem based learning is described and measured against three principle of learning: activation of prior knowledge, elaboration and encoding specificity. Using PBL method, students' understanding with regards to the problem...
Web course of electromechanics is a difficult to study course; so, we made up a Web teaching system aiming to this course based on ASP technology, etc. This Web teaching system included course study content, on line answer question sub-system, examination sub-system, and so on. This Web teaching system of electromechanics can help student to study by themselves through Web, and can also help teacher...
Multimedia technology is one of the hot technologies at the turn of the century. It promotes the reform of instruction and improves the qualities and effects of instruction. Using multimedia in instruction is the main component of modernization of instruction, as well as the breakthrough of overall instructional reform. The paper first introduces the conception of multimedia technology and its main...
A formal model of a knowledge base system consisting of a domain knowledge base and a user knowledge base in intelligent tutoring systems is presented in this paper. The domain knowledge base is represented by 3-level structure: subject level, knowledge concept level and learning material level; and ontologies are introduced in order to improve the sharing and reusing of multimedia teaching materials...
Knowledge of English in the Philippines is important not only in the work place, but as well as in education. English is the primary language of instruction in the Philippines, even in public schools. Students who have difficulty understanding English will also have trouble with the other subjects like Science and Math. However, there is a lack of qualified English school teachers, particularly in...
Using the tablet PC as a lecturing device offers the instructor a new set of tools upon which their teaching can be based. Since the general student body consists of many different types of learning styles, these new tools can provide a means to reach a wider range of students than the traditional blackboard-based lectures. However, as a first step towards assessing the effectiveness of the tablet...
Current educational presentations are commonly multimedia-based and with the realization of the mobile enterprise, accessing of such presentations stored on server from mobile devices will become increasingly common. This paper presents the results of our efforts with regard to the design and implementation of a client/server based mobile multimedia system for remote education. The system can automatically...
In this work, we present a new teaching approach that we have implemented in our introductory computer science programming course. The methodology consists of team teaching, a hybrid delivery system, recorded lecture retrieval capability, readiness assessment activities, objective assessment of student progress, and cooperative learning through team work. The two new aspects of this approach are team...
With the development of Internet, distance education platforms are very popular in today's society, but there are quite a few problems existent, such as the inadequate utilization of network teaching resources and the lack of individuation of the existed distance education platforms. To solve these problems have become the key of designing a good distance education platform. Web mining refers to the...
To promote the quality of long-distance teaching, a design scheme of Web site is proposed by integrating the net technique and teaching methods in this paper. Firstly the technical elements such as the instructional design and learning theory are introduced, and then the four pivotal steps are suggested as Web site design, analyzing, designing and producing. Furthermore, based on analyzing the principles...
Learning objects (LO) and learning object repositories are becoming widespread in various forms on the Internet. This paper explores the terminology and definitions of learning objects and the use of metadata providing a comparison of the different LO terminology and definitions that are in use. In particular the paper categorizes definitions: LOs that could be anything; LOs that could be anything...
Digital games, an interactive technology can foster learning process effectively and interestingly especially among young learners. Digital game based learning (DGBL) approach utilizes the game as a medium for conveying learning contents. The area of educational technology is still lacking of research on how to design game environment that foster knowledge construction and deepen understanding and...
With the development of ICT, education has gained great progress and human learning behaviors have been influenced. For instance, the educational conceptions have been changed; the learning mode has been innovated and the learning environment has been improved. In a word, ICT makes all aspects of education different from what it used to be. The author observes the changes of learning mode and discusses...
