Barre, V.; Choquet, C.; El-Kechai, H. – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2007
The underlying aim of the work related in this article, was to define Design Patterns for recording and analyzing usage in learning systems. The implied "bottom-up" approach when defining a Design Pattern brought us to examine data collected in our learning system through different lights: (1) the data type, (2) the human roles involved…
