Facilitating the Lifelong Learning Needs of the Mature Age Community through Learning Object Technology

通过了解学习者的偏好、需求和要求，可以在在线学习环境中提供机会，从而提高所有人学习的质量、多样性和相关性。对于成年学习者来说，这可能会有特别的好处。科廷已经开始探索当前在线学习管理系统中可重用学习对象的好处。本项目旨在定义学习对象技术的使用和应用，并将教学设计的元模型应用于在线学习环境。结果将允许新方法的应用，以有效实施复杂的智能学习环境。

By understanding learner preferences, needs and requirements, it could be possible to provide opportunities in an online learning environment that will improve the quality, variety and relevance of learning for all. There could be particular benefits for mature-age learners. Curtin has begun to explore the benefits of reusable learning objects with current online learning management systems. This project aims to define the use and application of learning object technology and applies a meta-model of pedagogical design to online learning environments. Outcomes will allow the applications of new methodologies for the effective implementation of complex, intelligent learning environments.
