虽然以前的研究已经证明了将互联网设施应用于学习过程的好处，但也发现了这一战略的问题。其中一个主要困难是缺乏在线学习环境来记录教育中使用互联网设施的学习档案，以便教师分析和评估学生的学习表现，从而相应调整教学策略。在本文中，我们提出了一个网络搜索学习环境，称为元分析器，它能够帮助教师分析学生使用搜索引擎解决问题的学习行为。220名学生和54名教师参与了该系统的试验。研究结果表明，该方法能够更好地了解学生在技术环境下的学习过程和搜索策略，帮助教师更好地了解学生的学习状况，从而提出更有建设性的建议。(c)2007爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Although previous research has demonstrated the benefits of applying the Internet facilities to the learning process, problems with this strategy have also been identified. One of the major difficulties is owing to the lack of an online learning environment that can record the learning portfolio of using the Internet facilities in education, such that the teacher can analyze and evaluate the learning performance of students, and hence the teaching strategies can be adjusted accordingly. In this paper, we propose a web-search learning environment, called Meta-Analyzer, which is able to assist the teachers in analyzing student learning behaviors of using search engines for problem solving. Two-hundred and twenty students and 54 teachers contributed to the trial of the system. The results have shown that the novel approach is able to gain a better understanding about students' learning processes and searching strategies in technology-enhanced environments, as well as to assist the teachers to acquire more about the learning status of students, and hence more constructive suggestions can be given accordingly.
