  • Adaptive MOOCs Based on Intended Learning Outcomes Using Naïve Bayesian Technique
    International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (ijet), 2020
    Co-Authors: Ahmad$aaup$palestinian Ewais, Duaa Abu Samara
    Abstract:

    Widespread adoption of MOOCs got researchers interest to support Learners in their learning process. However, most of provided courses are teacher-centered approach rather than Learner-centered approach. One of the possible solutions to enhance the learning process is to Enable Learner to learn a course that achieve a number of Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs). Therefore, the main goal of this research work is to propose an approach for adapting MOOCs learning materials based on ILOs using classification algorithm namely Naive Bayesian algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed approach considered the pedagogical aspects by generating a learning path based on the pedagogical relationship between learning concepts which are mapped to learning materials. As a result, the Learner will be able to follow a course generated automatically based on selected ILOs and pedagogical relationships. To validate the proposed approach, a prototype has been developed and the effectiveness of the adopted technique has been validated using a precision-recall indicator. The results were promising as the precision-recall indicators provided interesting results in the classification process.

  • Avatar implementation in virtual reality environment using situated learning for “sa'i” (muslim hajj ritual)
    2010 International Conference on Educational and Information Technology, 2010
    Co-Authors: Anita Mohd Yasin, Fakhrul Hazman Yusoff, Mohd Ali Mohd Isa, Nurul Hidayah Mat Zain
    Abstract:

    Performing hajj at the grand mosque of Mecca (Masjidil Haram) has been the ultimate goal for Muslims. Many of the hopefuls however, are not familiar with the surrounding of the grand mosque. As a result, Islamic communities in countries such as Malaysia and Singapore conduct months of training on way to perform the hajj rituals. The conventional approach of training uses series of images that fail to provide comprehensive picture of the mosque. Another method is using walk-through scaled models of the grand mosque but is very expensive to implement. This paper proposes the usage of Situated Learning (SL) via virtual reality in assisting the pilgrims in their training. The study emphasizes on 3D virtual reality environment using avatar. The avatar will guide Learners through virtual reality environment as user participates in a role based problem solving. SL on the other hand Enables Learner to take on active role in the learning process. The proposed method Enable Learner to practice the ritual of sa'i in virtual reality environment. A usability study has been set up to compare the effectiveness of the situated learning. The result shows that the usage of SL is effective compare to learning through visual display.

  • "Widening Participation"? An analysis of a short University based programme
    Innovative Practice in Higher Education, 2012
    Co-Authors: Rose Taylor
    Abstract:

    This short report outlines small scale research undertaken within the context of current Widening Participation (WP) practice at Staffordshire University. The focus of this work investigated the effectiveness of a specific approach designed to Enable Learner opportunities within Higher Education (HE).  The data obtained allowed insight into the level of preparation for Undergraduate (UG) level study being provided within this type of programme.  The findings of this study have directly informed aspects of current practice particularly in terms of developing problem solving skills.
