TL;DR: A conceptual framework for developing a fully-customisable knowledge-based learning environment is proposed which embraces interoperability, intelligent tutoring, shareability (learning content), and an intelligent interface to manage advanced learning object metadata.

Abstract: Developments in information technology have revolutionised the delivery of online learning to such an extent that interoperability, scalability, adaptability and mass-customisation are now becoming practical solutions for pan global delivery. However, whilst advocates of virtual learning environments, and advanced learning management systems often extol the virtues of e-learning per se, they often fail to articulate the limitations of such systems, especially concerning the 'personalisation' of the learning process and incompatibility with pedagogic needs.
This paper presents an analysis of previous research in the field of knowledge based learning environments using the context of construction as an exemplar. A conceptual framework for developing a fully-customisable knowledge-based learning environment is proposed which uses knowledge objects linked to an object oriented database, the concept of which embraces interoperability, intelligent tutoring, shareability (learning content), and an intelligent interface to manage advanced learning object metadata.

The Evolution of E-learning Management Systems: An Ethical Approach
Simon Rogerson,Mary Prior,Gonçalo Jorge Morais da Costa,Nuno Sotero Alves da Silva +3 more
- 01 Jul 2011
TL;DR: This paper builds on a consideration of e-learning definition and its ethical dilemmas, and human-centred learning concept and its dimensions, to examine the implications of integrating social and cultural contexts and advocates the adoption of an extension of "three P" mode of pedagogy to become the "P3E" model.
Screencasting for Mathematics Online Learning: A Case Study of a First Year Operations Research Course at a Dual Delivery Mode Australian University

TL;DR: In this paper, a case study of technology integration to support student learning in a first year operations research course at a dual-mode university is presented, where both groups are treated the same in this course in terms of provision of course material, access to the course learning management system, and to screencasts of live classes and additional explanations.

Innovative Safety Management Training Through e-Learning
TL;DR: The evaluation of the initial results suggests that learners are generally satisfied with the basic elements of the pilot delivery of the VC on hazards of falls, although more effort is needed to incorporate synchronous elements into instruction and create a more interactive learning environment.
