Research Abstract |
This research is focused on the applicability and effectiveness of student knowledge model and interactive model for supporting students in their web-based individual learning or collaborative learning in e-Learning environment. The topic was not noticed theoretically and technically, especially in e-Learning environment in the previous researches. This report described a statistical analysis of web-based individual learning history, a collaborative model based on interactive history in networked communication channels, and discussed modeling of the idea. The following are the results of our study. 1. Report of questionnaire based on styles of thinking proposed by Sternberg and Wagner and evaluation method 2. Report of Assessment and training of students learning strategies proposed by Weinstein and Mayer 3. Modeling of student learning strategies 4. Design of questionnaire based on styles of thinking for programming literacy learners 5. Statistical analysis of questionnaire answered by programming literacy learners 6. Analysis of web-based learning histories of individual learner in programming literacy course studies 7. Discussion of interaction timing for collaborative learning Our research results were not enough to complete a system which is used to support an individual or collaborative learners in their e-Learning environment but were succeeded in designing modules, structures and overview of the system. We are continuing the effort of research and are expecting to complete the system.
