Project based elearning using Workflow and Digital Library

该研究人员为会津大学的技术阅读课程设计并开发了混合式学习。爱津大学所有二年级的学生在本学年都选修了两门技术阅读课程。课程交付系统包括通过开源LMS软件提供的工作流教学法的连贯组合。这些课程还利用概念映射和基于java的语言测试，为学习者提供多种理解课程内容和发展学术技能的方法。本研究的成果如下：a)实施了一个学习管理系统，该系统目前已被所有Aizu大学二年级学生使用了两年（约2年）。1000名学生)b)与所有使用LMSc的大学二年级学生一起实施小组工作/工作流系统)实施概念映射和基于java的语言测验(d)制定基于活动理论的评估策略；本研究利用开放源码和免费软件，在技术阅读和写作的背景下，定制基于协作项目的过程。在协作学习模式中，保持系统的活动流程和顺序是很重要的。然而，理解开源软件如何适应各种内容领域也同样重要；不仅是阅读、写作，还包括计算机科学和其他技术领域。本研究的一个重要含义是，日本管理电子学习课程的策略可能与其他亚洲国家开发的类似课程相关。这项研究提供的基础工作为越南将提供的远程电子学习铺平了道路。这是后续研究的出发点。

The researcher has designed and developed blended learning for the Technical Reading course at the University of Aizu. All 2nd year level students at the University of Aizu have taken two (2) Technical Reading courses during the current year. The course delivery system includes a coherent combination of workflow pedagogy available through open source LMS software. The courses are also utilizing concept mapping and Java-based language quizzes to provide learners with multiple ways of understanding the course content and of developing their academic skills.The accomplishments of this research are as follows :a) implemented a learning management system which has now been used by all second year University of Aizu students during two years (approx. 1000 students)b) implemented a group work/workflow system with all second year university students using the LMSc) implemented concept mapping and Java-based language quizzesd) developed an evaluation strategy, based on activity theory, for the formative evaluation of group work with learning management system that incorporates multiple correspondence analysisThis research made use of open source and free software to customize collaborative project-based processes in the context of technical reading and writing. It is important to maintain a systematic flow and sequence of activities in the collaborative learning models. However, it is equally important to understand how open source software can be adapted to various content areas ; not only reading, writing, but also computer science, and other technical areas.An important implication of the present research is that strategies for managing e-learning courses in Japan may be relevant to similar courses developed for other Asian countries. The groundwork provided by this research has prepared the way for distance e-learning which will be offered in Vietnam. This is the departure point for subsequent research.
