Enhancing E-Learning Through a Person-Centered Pattern Repository for Reuse and Extensibility

This paper presents the Person-Centered e-Learning Pattern Repository, designed to capture and share experiences from blended learning activities in computer science and business informatics courses at the University of Vienna. By utilizing patterns to describe recurring design problems in e-learning, the repository supports the reuse of pedagogical knowledge. Key components include modeling learning activities, grouping related patterns, and establishing a uniform representation system, allowing for efficient retrieval and application in course design.

  1. The Person-Centered e-Learning Pattern RepositoryDesign for Reuse and Extensibility ED-MEDIA’04Lugano, Switzerland June 26, 2004 Michael Derntl Department of Computer ScienceUniversity of Vienna michael.derntl@univie.ac.at ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  2. Background • Blended Learning activities at the department • Computer science and business informatics courses (BSc, MSc, PhD) • Stepwise, “piecemeal” introduction of ICTs • HOW TO... ...capture these experiences??  Notes, written reports, evaluations ...share these experiences?? ...make them available for reuse??  PATTERNS ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  3. Patterns • Original idea Describing solutions to recurring design problems in architecture (C. Alexander) • (E-)Learning: increasing number of pattern initiatives • Pedagogical patterns project (non-e-learning) • E-LEN project (http://www.tisip.no/E-LEN) • Educational modeling languages, e.g. EMLIMS/LD, E2ML • Educational hypermedia, LMS patterns, etc… Common goal: capturing expert knowledge & experience for reuse ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  4. PCeL Pattern Repository • Blended, Person-Centered learning patterns • Method • Modeling of concrete courses at activity level • Extract frequently recurring, coherent activities • Describe using uniform template  Pattern • Group related patterns in „packages“ • Iterate! • Central role of models • Repository: patterns organized in packages • Patterns: models of learning activities (sequence) and structure • Learning activity models of concrete courses • Modeling language: UML • Repository: 7 packages ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  5. General Package • Patterns: • Frequently used, general nature • Not fitting into any other package ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  6. Interactive Elements package • Patterns: • Interaction / interactivity among participants, instructors, tutors, guests, … • Requirement: at least two actors interact ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  7. Valuing judgment on the performance of participants; • Lay foundation for assessing a grade • Collecting opinions and feedback in some structured or unstructured way Evaluation and Feedback Packages ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  8. Other Packages • Project-Based Learning • Assessment • Course Types ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  9. Example: Arranging Patterns ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  10. Preliminary Phases Project Proposals Project-Based Learning Example: Concrete Course ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  11. Project-Based Learning Collect Feedback AssessmentPhases ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  12. Example: Team Building online ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  13. Pattern Web @ http://elearn.pri.univie.ac.at/patterns ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)

  14. Conclusions • Usage of object-oriented principles • Enables “plugging in” of additional patterns • Explicit concept  instance relationship • Usage of UML enables standardizedvisual analysis and designof e-learning courses • e-Learning patterns enable… • Shared vocabulary & experience • Uniform representation  search, comparison, etc. • Targeted specification of required ICT support  derivation of support modules ED-MEDIA'04 (michael.derntl@univie.ac.at)
