History, Context, and Policies of a Learning Object RepositorySimpson, Steve 27 October 2016 (has links)
Learning object repositories, a form of digital libraries, are robust systems that provide educators new ways to search for educational resources, collaborate with peers, and provide instruction to students in unique and varied ways. This study examines a learning object repository created by a large suburban school district to increase teaching information and encourage collaboration among teachers. Despite investing nearly $2 million to develop the software and seed the repository with materials, data suggest that teacher use falls below set goals. This document explores five years of site traffic, user engagement, social interaction, asset growth, as well as the authoring of instructional materials as a means to evaluate the repository. The results of the study may inform the policy decisions of educational organizations when considering digital learning environments.

Individualized selection of learning objectsLiu, Jian 15 May 2009
Rapidly evolving Internet and web technologies and international efforts on standardization of learning object metadata enable learners in a web-based educational system ubiquitous access to multiple learning resources. It is becoming more necessary and possible to provide individualized help with selecting learning materials to make the most suitable choice among many alternatives.<p>
A framework for individualized learning object selection, called Eliminating and Optimized Selection (EOS), is presented in this thesis. This framework contains a suggestion for extending learning object metadata specifications and presents an approach to selecting a short list of suitable learning objects appropriate for an individual learner in a particular learning context. The key features of the EOS approach are to evaluate the suitability of a learning object in its situated context and to refine the evaluation by using available historical usage information about the learning object. A Learning Preference Survey was conducted to discover and determine the relationships between the importance of learning object attributes and learner characteristics. Two weight models, a Bayesian Network Weight Model and a Naïve Bayes Model, were derived from the data collected in the survey. Given a particular learner, both of these models provide a set of personal weights for learning object features required by the individualized learning object selection.<p>
The optimized selection approach was demonstrated and verified using simulated selections. Seventy simulated learning objects were evaluated for three simulated learners within simulated learning contexts. Both the Bayesian Network Weight Model and the Naïve Bayes Model were used in the selection of simulated learning objects. The results produced by the two algorithms were compared, and the two algorithms highly correlated each other in the domain where the testing was conducted.<p>
A Learning Object Selection Study was performed to validate the learning object selection algorithms against human experts. By comparing machine selection and human experts selection, we found out that the agreement between machine selection and human experts selection is higher than agreement among the human experts alone.

Visual Comfort in Transitional SpacesAraji, Mohamad 22 July 2005 (has links)
The study emphasizes changing light conditions in architectural spaces as a major factor on human eye adaptation, which represents a potential case for a visual shock. This visual shock is experienced when occupants encounter a sudden field of light whose intensity is above or below the limit of human eye adaptable range. To examine this condition, a new methodology is developed and outlined. It identifies the visual shock within transitional spaces and allows architects to investigate strategies that influence visual comfort. The physiological field of vision analysis is used to first critique, then to adjust, and finally to interpret scenes within transitional spaces. The methodology begins by using a 180° angle fish-eye lens camera to capture 3-D photographs along a selected pedestrian pathway. The photographs are overlaid by a “field of view” diagram to deduct areas obstructed by human facial features (eyebrows, cheeks, and nose). Area weighted percentages of the net view profile is then calculated using an overlay hemispherical radial grid. These percentages represent the cut-off vision (0%), the one-eye vision (12.5%), the peripheral vision (25%), and the central vision (50%). Image metamorphosis is done by the aid of the Adobe Photoshop software to restrict the image to four monochromatic contrasts of shade. Parallel to photographs, actual light intensity readings are collected and calibrated to each assigned contrast on the images. To illustrate the methodology, a case of a person experiencing an extreme discomfort by walking in the direction of a blinding sunlight source has been chosen and investigated. 3-D Computer modeling is then adopted to investigate the different architectural daylight solutions as suggested by the modified design and predicts a visual comfort. This method provides a successful tool for investigating light in transitional spaces as well as contributes to enhancing pedestrian awareness of their surrounding environment and clarity of visual information.

Factors Affecting Faculty Use Of Learning Object Repositories: An Exploratory Study Of Orange Grove And Wisc-onlineXu, Hong 12 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to identify factors that motivate or impede faculty use of learning object repositories (LORs). The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) served as the theoretical framework for this study. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used in the study to explore two research questions relating to factors affecting faculty use of LORs. Research subjects were faculty and instructional staff users from two LORs: Orange Grove and Wisc-Online. This study was a two-phase design study. In Phase I, I conducted 13 interviews and analyzed data by a content analysis method. Phase II of the study was designed based on the results of Phase I. I collected data by a survey instrument from 38 respondents and analyzed the data by descriptive statistics and analysis of variance in Phase II. The results of the study indicated 22 factors as motivators for faculty use of LORs and 13 factors as barriers for faculty use of LORs. The study is the first to identify factors affecting faculty use of LORs from actual faculty users’ perspectives based on UTAUT. The study’s findings contribute to understanding the reasons that faculty use or do not use LORs and provide foundations for designing strategies to increase faculty use of LORs.

Improving Learning-Object Metadata Usage During Lesson AuthoringMotelet, Oliver January 2007 (has links)
Ciencias de la Computación / Para lograr coherencia y flexibilidad en unidades de aprendizaje basadas en documentos multimedia, varios autores han recomendado estructurar los componentes de los cursos en grafos. En un grafo de curso, los recursos educacionales son encapsulados como objetos de aprendizaje (LO - Learning Objects) con sus respectivos metadatos (LOM - Learning-Object Metadata) y son interconectados con relaciones de varios tipos retóricos y/o semánticos. Los grafos de recursos son almacenados en repositorios en los cuales los metadatos sirven para facilitar su recuperación y reutilización. Sin embargo, tales sistemas se enfrentan con problemas serios en cuanto al uso de los LOMs: los metadatos son difíciles de instanciar y los autores de cursos generalmente no tienen estímulos para cumplir con esta tediosa tarea ya que ellos mismos no se benefician de los metadatos que generan.
La generación automática de metadatos resuelve este problema. Sin embargo, este método se limita a ciertos metadatos excluyendo la mayor parte de los metadatos subjetivos tales como los metadatos educacionales. Esta limitación motivó el enfoque de esta tesis sobre una técnica complementaria: un método híbrido basado en la sinergia entre procesos automáticos e intervención humana. La generación híbrida de LOMs puede ser aplicada sobre los atributos que no pueden ser automáticamente generados. Sin embargo, este enfoque está basado en la contribución de usuarios no siempre cooperativos, quienes necesitarían ver beneficios para motivar su participación.
Proponemos estudiar los usos de LOM durante la creación de cursos, no sólo desde la perspectiva de la generación híbrida sino también desde la perspectiva de los beneficios que pueden brindar los LOMs. Esta estrategia tiene como objetivo soportar una retroacción positiva en la cual los beneficios puedan motivar la generación de LOMs de buena calidad, y la buena calidad de los LOMs pueda mejorar los beneficios.
En particular, esta tesis investiga métodos para (1) integrar sin transición la generación híbrida de LOMs dentro de una herramienta de creación de cursos, (2) procesar un conjunto de LOMs aunque ciertos metadatos quedaran incompletos, incorrectos, o faltantes, (3) mejorar los resultados de los métodos clásicos de recuperación de LOs usando los metadatos de los LOs que componen un curso.
Desarrollamos una herramienta de código abierto para validar las propuestas de esta tesis. Experimentos preliminares mostraron que los LOMs pueden mejorar significativamente la recuperación de LOs adicionales durante el proceso de creación de cursos.

Modelo de planejamento para repositório de objetos de aprendizagem em organizações educacionais (MOPROA) / Model for planning learning objects repository in educational organizationsSalve, Guilherme Bizarro 10 September 2010 (has links)
A tecnologia apóia o processo de ensino de diversas maneiras ao mesmo tempo em que traz desafios para sua utilização. A produção e disponibilização de materiais instrucionais é um dos pilares dos sistemas de ensino, sendo o repositório de objetos de aprendizagem uma forma possível para realização. Essa solução possui poucos anos de existência se comparada a outras, o que impõe desafios para o seu planejamento. Em parte significativa das organizações de ensino observa-se lacuna de conhecimentos nas áreas que envolvem a planificação desse empreendimento. O interesse do estudo e do pesquisador é a integração dos campos de conhecimento envolvidos, nesse caso o técnico, o gerencial, o legal e o pedagógico, para o aumento da capacidade desse processo, na qual se possa identificar as atividades, boas práticas e resultados necessários, em formato flexível, para que se estruture em bases sustentáveis para implantação. O objetivo geral foi o desenvolvimento de um modelo de planejamento para repositório de objetos de aprendizagem. A hipótese da pesquisa é que a formalização, a mobilização de recursos, a aceitação, a integração, a descentralização, o controle, a avaliação ambiental e a interação entre os planejadores estão contemplados no modelo e possibilitam o aumento da capacidade de planejamento do repositório de objetos de aprendizagem em organizações de ensino. De forma a alcançar o resultado requerido foi realizado estudo de múltiplos casos, que decorreram ao longo do ano de 2009 até meados do ano de 2010. A unidade de análise foi o planejamento de repositório de objetos de aprendizagem em organizações com fins educacionais. Realizou-se pesquisa das referências, que envolviam documentos científicos e organizacionais, da área de gestão de projetos e repositório, para que se chegasse a primeira versão da proposta. De forma integrante utilizou-se entrevistas, análise de documentos, observação e instrumento de pesquisa, para a realização de melhorias e o alcance dos resultados e análises quanto a funcionalidade do modelo, com o intuito de melhorar a capacidade do planejamento. O instrumento foi desenvolvido com a utilização de protocolo de modo a ser testado e validado. A hipótese de pesquisa foi confirmada, porém a dimensão mobilização teve concordância interavaliadores baixa, o que demanda atenção especial, de modo que não faltem recursos e pessoas para a realização do trabalho. A pesquisa contribuiu ao proporcionar aos gestores, fases, processos, atividades, boas práticas e questões que possibilitam o aumento da capacidade do planejamento desse tipo de empreendimento. / Technology has supported the teaching process in several ways whereas it poses challenges to its use. The production and availability of instructional materials is one of the pillars of education, and the learning object repository is a possible way to achieve this task. This solution has few years of existence, which poses challenges for planning, In a considerable number of educational organizations there is a knowledge gap in the areas surrounding the planning of learning object repository. The interest of this study and of the researcher is integrating the fields of knowledge involved, which, in this case, are the technical, managerial, legal and pedagogical. The purpose is to increase the capacity of this process, where one can identify the activities, best practices and necessary results, in a flexible format, so that it is structured on a sustainable basis for deployment. The overall objective was the development of a model for planning learning object repository. The hypothesis is that, formalization, resource mobilization, acceptance, integration, decentralization, control, environmental assessment and interaction between planners are included in the model allowing to increase the capacity to plan the learning object repository in educational organizations. ln order to achieve the required result multiple case study was realized, during the year of 2009 until mid-2010. The unit of analysis was the planning of learning object repository in organizations with educational purposes. We performed a review of the literature, involving scientific and organizational documents, in the area of project management and learning object repository, to reach the first version of the proposal. We used interviews, document analysis, observation and research tool for the realization of improvement and achievement of results and analysis regarding the functionality of the model, in order to improve the capacity of planning. The instrument was tested and validated by means of a protocol. The research hypothesis was confirmed, but the dimension resource mobilization had low interrater agreement, which requires special attention, so that there is no lack of resources and people to do the work. The research contributed by providing managers with, phases, processes, activities, best practices and issues that make it possible to increase the capacity of planning this type of project.

ScatterNet hybrid frameworks for deep learningSingh, Amarjot January 2019 (has links)
Image understanding is the task of interpreting images by effectively solving the individual tasks of object recognition and semantic image segmentation. An image understanding system must have the capacity to distinguish between similar looking image regions while being invariant in its response to regions that have been altered by the appearance-altering transformation. The fundamental challenge for any such system lies within this simultaneous requirement for both invariance and specificity. Many image understanding systems have been proposed that capture geometric properties such as shapes, textures, motion and 3D perspective projections using filtering, non-linear modulus, and pooling operations. Deep learning networks ignore these geometric considerations and compute descriptors having suitable invariance and stability to geometric transformations using (end-to-end) learned multi-layered network filters. These deep learning networks in recent years have come to dominate the previously separate fields of research in machine learning, computer vision, natural language understanding and speech recognition. Despite the success of these deep networks, there remains a fundamental lack of understanding in the design and optimization of these networks which makes it difficult to develop them. Also, training of these networks requires large labeled datasets which in numerous applications may not be available. In this dissertation, we propose the ScatterNet Hybrid Framework for Deep Learning that is inspired by the circuitry of the visual cortex. The framework uses a hand-crafted front-end, an unsupervised learning based middle-section, and a supervised back-end to rapidly learn hierarchical features from unlabelled data. Each layer in the proposed framework is automatically optimized to produce the desired computationally efficient architecture. The term `Hybrid' is coined because the framework uses both unsupervised as well as supervised learning. We propose two hand-crafted front-ends that can extract locally invariant features from the input signals. Next, two ScatterNet Hybrid Deep Learning (SHDL) networks (a generative and a deterministic) were introduced by combining the proposed front-ends with two unsupervised learning modules which learn hierarchical features. These hierarchical features were finally used by a supervised learning module to solve the task of either object recognition or semantic image segmentation. The proposed front-ends have also been shown to improve the performance and learning of current Deep Supervised Learning Networks (VGG, NIN, ResNet) with reduced computing overhead.
