Ramos, Ilmara Monteverde Martins; Ramos, David Brito; Gadelha, Bruno Freitas; de Oliveira, Elaine Harada Teixeira – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
Forming groups in distance education is challenging for teachers because, with this modality, only 20% of the classes are held in person with the students. Thus, it is essential to achieve satisfactory results with automated approaches that can help teachers. In this article, an automated approach is proposed to assist teachers in recommending…

Tenorio, Thyago; Isotani, Seiji; Bittencourt, Ig Ibert; Lu, Yu – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
The application of the collective intelligence (CI) concept has yielded significant results in many knowledge areas and it has substantial potential to yield results in the educational context. In view of distance education and online educational technologies, the use of CI has enormous potential to improve collaboration, social learning, and…

Laru, Jari; Naykki, Piia; Järvelä, Sanna – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2015
In this paper, the Gartner Group's hype cycle is used as the basis for categorizing and analyzing research on the educational use of ubiquitous computing. There are five phases of the hype cycle: the technology trigger, the peak of inflated expectations, the trough of disillusionment, the slope of enlightenment, and the plateau of productivity.…

Alario-Hoyos, Carlos; Pérez-Sanagustin, Mar; Delgado-Kloos, Carlos; Parada G., Hugo A.; Muñoz-Organero, Mario – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2014
This paper presents an in-depth empirical analysis of a nine-week MOOC. This analysis provides novel results regarding participants' profiles and use of built-in and external social tools. The results served to detect seven participants' patterns and conclude that the forum was the social tool preferred to contribute to the MOOC.

Srba, Ivan; Bielikova, Maria – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2015
In the current time of globalization, collaboration among people in virtual environments is becoming an important precondition of success. This trend is reflected also in the educational domain where students collaborate in various short-term groups created repetitively but changing in each round (e.g. in MOOCs). Students in these kind of dynamic…

Grunewald, Franka; Meinel, Christoph – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2015
The use of video lectures in distance learning involves the two major problems of searchability and active user participation. In this paper, we promote the implementation and usage of a collaborative educational video annotation functionality to overcome these two challenges. Different use cases and requirements, as well as details of the…
