Palmer, Stuart; Holt, Dale – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2009
Academic staff play a fundamental role in the use of online learning by students. Yet, compared to studies reporting student perspectives on online learning, studies investigating the perspectives of academic staff are much more limited. Perhaps the least common investigations are those that compare the perceptions of academic staff and students…

Delozanne, E.; Le Calvez, F.; Merceron, A.; Labat, J. – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2007
In this article we present a structured set of Design Patterns (DPs) that deals with tracking students while they solve problem in specific domains such as programming or mathematics. Our collection of 17 DPs yields a three step approach: First step: to collect and analyze information on each student for each exercise; Second step: to build a…
