Reading for research purposes obviously goes beyond basic comprehension and requires the reader to have reasonable confidence in and mastery of a range of critical reading skills. There is a generalized concern about student proficiency in this area. This is a difficult challenge in one's own language and even more so for foreign language students. The students involved in this study are enrolled...
The objective of the current study is to research, design, implement and test a tool that provides a repository of learning objects and records a profile of the learners, in order to deliver a customized version of the learning object to the learners taking into account their optimal learning profile and inclusive design in mind. The intention is to package and deliver content taking into account...
Contribution: This research contributes a new understanding of classification of learners in a CSET classroom within a conceptual framework. We compared the grades for students in each classification for a few large classrooms. The results were sufficiently interesting to justify further empirical studies on the subject. Description: A particular set of classification of learners, drawn from Malcolm...
In this paper the author identifies two shortcomings of current research on global engineering and provide solutions that can overcome them. The author argues that current research on global engineering 1) lacks an in-depth understanding of engineering work practices and 2) suffers from challenges in translating findings into suitable curricula. This negatively impacts both what we know about how...
The management of groups is an essential task in collaborative learning scenarios. In a blended learning situation, in which online activities and face-to-face activities are combined, this group management becomes more complex. Different technological solutions have been proposed for supporting the group management in the CSCL field. However, these approaches fail to consider factors inherent to...
This paper reports developments on a best description template for teaching methods, whose descriptive elements will eventually be mapped to the elements of the IMS learning design specification. The template was created based on (a) previous approaches to describing teaching methods devised by various international projects and (b) information requirements of teachers during different phases of understanding...
In this paper, we propose a track analysis process about the activity in learning systems that helps teachers to benefit of the experience and the knowledge of the community in the usage analysis.We also propose a language for calculation of teachers' observation needs. This language will be implemented in tracks' analysis tools, which support teachers to establish their tracking needs in order to...
