Pu, Haitao; Lin, Jinjiao; Song, Yanwei; Liu, Fasheng – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2011
Mobile learning is e-learning delivered through mobile computing devices, which represents the next stage of computer-aided, multi-media based learning. Therefore, mobile learning is transforming the way of traditional education. However, as most current e-learning systems and their contents are not suitable for mobile devices, an approach for…

Tam, Gary K. L.; Lau, Rynson W. H.; Zhao, Jianmin – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2009
Due to the popularity of 3D graphics in animation and games, usage of 3D geometry deformable models increases dramatically. Despite their growing importance, these models are difficult and time consuming to build. A distance learning system for the construction of these models could greatly facilitate students to learn and practice at different…

Kanev, Kamen; Kimura, Shigeo; Orr, Thomas – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2009
In this article, we propose a framework for Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) employing dynamic groups, where at different stages students work independently, interact with each other in pairs, and conduct joint work in larger groups with varying numbers of participants. A Dynamic Group Environment for Collaborative Learning…

Najjar, Mehdi – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2008
Despite a growing development of virtual laboratories which use the advantages of multimedia and Internet for distance education, learning by means of such tutorial tools would be more effective if they were specifically tailored to each student needs. The virtual teaching process would be well adapted if an artificial tutor can identify the…

Wang, Te-Hua; Chang, Flora Chia-I – International Journal of Distance Education Technologies, 2007
The sharable content object reference model (SCORM) includes a representation of distance learning contents and a behavior definition of how users should interact with the contents. Generally, SCORMcompliant systems were based on multimedia and Web technologies on PCs. We further build a pervasive learning environment, which allows users to read…
