This paper investigates the effectiveness of including questions within instructional multimedia content to improve student performance on a related programming assignment. An experiment was conducted where one set of students was provided with an instructional video without any embedded questions and another set of students was provided the same video with embedded questions. The findings of this...
Objective of our research is to create online course in e-learning system LCMS Moodle and to make direct use of it in practice during teaching. Contents of created course are limit of a sequence, limit of a function and differential calculus. Course represents teaching aid for students of the 1st year of EF UMB enrolled in compulsory subject Mathematics 1. In our research we will test the effectivity...
Early exposure to devices such as smart phones and tablets among children as a learning tool has been very common nowadays. Learning using devices like iPads and tablets can stimulate children's motivation and concentration. Therefore, evaluation and measurement of user experience for mobile learning application become crucial. There were some studies have been done in order to get feedback from users...
Designing an educational online learning environment requires proper planning as it will influence students' learning experiences. For the purpose of developing a computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) environment, the development process should be properly designed to meet the objectives of learning. In this research, the design of a CSCL environment is explained using the Three-phase Development...
Current online examinations mostly adopted conventional item templates such as true-false, multiple choices, multiple selection and text input questions, lacking of interactive and operational items such as drawing diagram item template which is very useful to test students' operational and experiment-based skills. There is a growing interest in using computers to assess student constructed diagrams...
Development of a software product needs to be evaluated to ensure that it meets the objective. There are many ways to evaluate a software product. Software are tested for its functionality, usability, completeness and also the acceptance. This study evaluated the usability and acceptance of a multimedia web based education among children. The web based education that was tested for this study is called...
This paper aims to present the roles of computers in computer-assisted language learning (CALL), discuss different classification of CALL programs, and propose some practical suggestions for CALL application in English language instruction in tertiary institutions in China, through metacognitive strategies training.
In order to promote to share resource of Agricultural Information Courses (AIC) for our school master's network education, ensure teaching quality and improve the construction level of the network courses; we have developed a teaching demonstration system. This teaching platform can reform the traditional agricultural informatization instruction, and improve the teaching and research activities of...
For increasing of efficiency of the education at the end to each multimedia lecture student communicates the subject to following lecture and is conducted testing on lectured.
The Constructivism Experimental Web-Based Learning model is an important constructive learning model that efficiently collaborate latest multi-media, on-line technology and also emphasis the importance of educator's instruction. This theory views student as proactive learning constructor and teacher's role is collecting, organizing external information, guiding student to explore, interact with designed...
Item templates do not solely confined to conventional true & false, multiple choice, completion item and short answer but also includes those of operational ones, for example, link, match, classification, and order. Since not all the same template can fit into testing different knowledge types, and different templates also have their limits in assessing different knowledge types, dilemma then...
Based on constructivism theory, the paper stated the construction and application of network teaching system, three-layer browser/server mode (B/S) was used in developing teaching system. This operating mode could place all kinds of teaching resources on the server side, and uses unified database storage and organization. Users on the client side browsered the Web page through server agent which was...
With the wide availability of online social and educational websites, there is now an interest in using online multimedia for education. Rather than traditional paper-and-pencil tests, audio, video and graphics are being conceived as alternative means for more effective testing in the future. In this presentation we review some examples of multimedia and games for testing. Computer games have become...
Interactive multimedia content can help improve learning performance by enhancing user satisfaction and engagement. Multimedia content also can help improve concept representation, which is not possible in conventional multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank formats. In this article, we present a broader view of multimedia education, focusing on future applications. Our vision is to provide publicly...
With the development of multimedia and computer-assisted instruction (CAI) technologies, it is feasible for instructors to renew the teaching methods of MIS course. Due to the interdisciplinary property of MIS course, traditional teaching methods are not suitable to MIS course teaching. In this paper, based on the analysis on the special characteristics and teaching difficulties of MIS course, some...
In the present Knowledge era, technology has a vital role to play in all fields, including education. Technology enables providing effective and pervasive media for life-long and personalized learning experiences. The advancements in telecommunication at a rapid pace have also paved the way for technology-based education systems and educational administration. The absorption of technology in education...
Mastery of basic concepts and logical units is a prerequisite for solving complex problems. The divide-and-conquer strategy has been used successfully in a variety of problem solving situations, including algorithm design and software engineering. In this paper, we adopt a similar approach and propose a process analyzer in education. The goal is to help students improve their problem solving skills,...
The use of multimedia in learning and testing has been gaining popularity over the last few years. In this paper, we describe a method for estimating difficulty level of a multimedia mathematical item type using Item Response Theory (IRT). Experimental results on determining the parameters of an IRT model through tests on a group of students are also presented. Linear regression equations are fitted...
Multimedia content is an effective tool for enhancing learning and testing, and it is more effective than the traditional paper and pencil presentation format. In order to make educational materials more intuitive, more interactive and more inspiring to students, image, audio, video, graphics, animation and 3D items are widely used in current educational applications. However, they are designed mainly...
Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable/treatable forms of cancer, due to the fact that precursor signs for the disease can be detected in microscopic examination of cervical cells. Currently these examinations are purely visual, but the project reported aims to process the visual images to present them in a complementary auditory form and thereby to improve diagnostic accuracy. Standard mean-shift...
