Research Abstract |
One of the most global interests in the research horizons of educational technology and learning sciences are emergent of massive virtual learning environment like MOOC and the new proposed approach to learning sciences, i.e. Learning Analytics. With respect to these movements, our findings in this research are as follows; 1) It may be necessary to introduce mathematical analytics based on Markov Process like Yule process or Birth-Death process, to analyze learning processes in massive virtual learning environments like MOOC. 2) Learning processes weave "fast variables" with "slow variables". Learning phenomena are based on these variables. Therefore, applying "the principle of slaving" , which is propounded in Synagetics, to describe learning phenomena mathematically will be one of the most successful strategies.
