  1. Janko Žufić Department of pre-school and primary school teaching University Juraj Dobrila, Pula Damir Kalpić Department of applied computing Faculty of electrical engineering and computing University of Zagreb Adapting e-learning materials to students' intelligence type Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  2. Introduction • How to adapt e-material to be equally effective for each student?Students differ in: foreknowledge learning style intelligence... Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  3. The adaptability of e-materials • Students will learn most effectively if the e-material is adapted to suit them. • Criterium for adjustment: intelligence • The most frequent models / theories of intelligence structures are : • Multiple Intelligences (Gardner, 1983.) • The Triarchic Model (Stenberg, 2003.) • Structure of Intellect Model (Guilford 1967.) • The Tree-Stratum Theory (Carroll, 1993.) • Two-factor' theory of intelligence (Spearman, 1927.) • For almost every model / theory there are developed numerous tests of intelligence Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  4. Research • Students  of eighth grade in 10 elementary schools in Istria - Croatia (> 500 students) • Intelligence of students tested • The division of students into four groupsWith the strongest verbal factor - VerbFactor with the strongest non-verbal -NoVerbWith the strongest mathematical-logical factor - MLControl group consisted of three previous - Cont Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  5. Creating 3 e-materials – one each for every group of students - based on guidelines from the literature Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  6. Creating 3 e-materials Development of e-material for the 4th (control) group: the above guidelines do not apply Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  7. Results • 19.34% better results verb groups • 14.16% better results NoVerb groups • 19.94% better results ML groups from the control group (the significance levelP=0.05) Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  8. Development of EduPsy • In  adaptive hypermedia  EduPsy system, there are functionality tests of intelligence developed individually for each student (optional) • E-materials are created for each individual student, based on the tests of intelligence results, learning styles and other elements Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  9. Testing the intelligence on the computer Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  10. Entry of learning materials into the EduPsy System • The teacher of the course does not have to possess advanced IT knowledge. • Teacher spends extra time to prepare materials Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  11. The structure of the teaching units Name of the modul Button to create a new paragraph Editor Button to create the questions on a passage (new window) Paragraph: Enter / edit text Prioritization  section Highlight terms… Enter keywords Insert audio, video, pictures or other files Space for student’s questions Insert a link to the Internet, other sources of interesting games, Chat Entry materials for learning in the system EduPsy Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  12. Data storage in MS ACCESS Name of the particles The content of the particles Date of material Teachers ID priority of occurrence Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  13. Design of e-materials • The application pulls the known parameters of student’s: • Intelligence • Learning style • Combination of text and background color • How many times the student had to go through the teaching material • Success of self-testing • Priorities of reccurenies… and displays material adapted to each student using about 15 CSS files (Cascading Style Sheets) with DIV containers and attributes Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  19. “NonVerbal" materials Videos Animations and games

  20. Principles of e-material’s design Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  21. “Verbal" materials Audio contents Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  22. Verbal e-materials recording audio content Feedback, wrong Feedback, correct Feedback Feedback recommendations to continue or not Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  23. Results • Tests of the 1st year Teaching Education students at the Juraj Dobrila University at Pula, indicate 11-17% better performance of the students who learned with adaptable e-materials than the results of the control group Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012

  24. Conclusion • Teacher utilizes extra time to prepare teaching materials • Learning efficiency is better Žufić - Kalpić - DAAD - 12th Workshop Opatija 2 - 9 September 2012
