摘要:Open and distance Learning (ODL) gives learners freedom of time, place
and pace of study, putting learner self-direction centre-stage. However,
increased responsibility should not come at the price of over-burdening or
abandonment of learners as they progress along their learning journey.
This paper introduces an approach to recommending the sequencing of elearning
modules for distance learners based on self-organisation theory.
It describes an architecture which supports the recording, processing and
presentation of collective learner behaviour designed to create a feedback
loop informing learners of successful paths towards the attainment of
learning goals. The article includes results from a large-scale experiment
designed to validate the approach.
