Maaliw, Renato R., III – Online Submission, 2016
Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) such as Moodle, Blackboard, and WebCT are commonly and successfully used in E-education. While they focus on supporting educators in creating and holding online courses, they typically do not consider the individual differences of learners. However, learners have different needs and characteristics such as prior…

Cyberlearning researchers envision and investigate the future of learning with technology. As of summer 2017, the Cyberlearning and Future Learning Technologies (CFTL) program of the National Science Foundation (NSF) had made 279 research grant awards. In addition, several hundred other NSF research projects have cyberlearning themes. Many of…

Mendoza-Gonzalez, Ricardo, Ed. – IGI Global, 2016
In today's society, educational opportunities have evolved beyond the traditional classroom setting. Most universities have implemented virtual learning environments in an effort to provide more opportunities for potential or current students seeking alternative and more affordable learning solutions. "User-Centered Design Strategies for…

Wei, Chun-Wang; Chen, Nian-Shing; Kinshuk, – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2012
It is now possible to create flexible learning environments without time and distance barriers on the internet. However, research has shown that learners typically experience isolation and alienation in online learning environments. These negative experiences can be reduced by enhancing social presence. In order to better facilitate the perceived…

Veletsianos, George; Heller, Robert; Overmyer, Scott; Procter, Mike – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2010
This paper examines the effective deployment of conversational agents in virtual worlds from the perspective of researchers/practitioners in cognitive psychology, computing science, learning technologies and engineering. From a cognitive perspective, the major challenge lies in the coordination and management of the various channels of information…

Veletsianos, George – Computers & Education, 2010
Humans draw on their stereotypic beliefs to make assumptions about others. Even though prior research has shown that individuals respond socially to media, there is little evidence with regards to learners stereotyping and categorizing pedagogical agents. This study investigated whether learners stereotype a pedagogical agent as being…

Ketelhut, Diane Jass; Nelson, Brian C.; Clarke, Jody; Dede, Chris – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2010
This study investigated novel pedagogies for helping teachers infuse inquiry into a standards-based science curriculum. Using a multi-user virtual environment (MUVE) as a pedagogical vehicle, teams of middle-school students collaboratively solved problems around disease in a virtual town called River City. The students interacted with "avatars" of…

Peschke, Julie – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2009
The culture of the young may, in fact, be a harbinger enticing us to follow a pathway from which will emerge the re-conceptualized educational practices of this new century. The culture of those older will, no doubt, strive to maintain the more golden aspects of their now historical learning experiences. One of the tasks of all educators, but…

Weller, Martin; Little, Alex; McAndrew, Patrick; Woods, Will – Educational Technology & Society, 2006
This paper examines the contention that learning environments which use IMS Learning Designs can be created by plugging in different components, using generic service descriptions to create the interface between the Learning Design (LD) and the specific tools. There is an alternative viewpoint which claims that generic service descriptions cannot…

Ihamäki, Heli; Vilpola, Inka – Electronic Journal of e-Learning, 2004
Most of the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) design methods focus on producing content for a VLE. However, usability of the VLE is also of great importance. Several potential usability problems have been reported in recent e-learning conferences. These problems could have been avoided by applying usability engineering methods before the VLE was…

Baek, Eun-Ok; Barab, Sasha A. – Educational Technology & Society, 2005
The concept of a community of practice (CoP) is prevalent in several venues for teachers' professional development, especially in online environments. However, there are few descriptive accounts that effectively represent a CoP in a manner that will be of use to other designers. In order to illuminate potential difficulties which may arise when…
