DESERIBES A NEW AUTOMATIE DIGITAL EONTENT GENERATION SYSTEM WE HAVE
DEVELOPED. REEENTLY, SOME UNIVERSITIES, INELUDING HOSEI UNIVERSITY, HAVE
BEEN OFFERING STUDENTS OPPORTUNITIES TO TAKE DISTANEE INTERAETIVE
CLASSES OVER THE INTERNET FROM OVERSEAS. WHEN SUCH DISTANEE LECTURES ARE
DELIVERED IN ENGLISH TO JAPANESE STUDENTS, THERE IS A PRESSING NEED TO
PROVIDE MATERIALS FOR REVIEW AFTER CLASS, SUCH AS VIDEO EONTENT ON A
CD-ROM OR ON A WEB SITE. TO MEET THIS NEED, THE AUTHORS HAVE DEVELOPED A
NEW AUTOMATIE EONTENT GENERATION SYSTEM, WHIEH ENABLES THE EOMPLETE
ARCHIVING OFLEETURES INCLUDING VIDEO/AUDIO EON- TENT, SYNEHRONIZED
PRESENTATION MATERIALS, AND HANDWRITTEN TRAEES ON VIRTUAL WHITEBOARDS.
THE EONTENT IS GENERATED IN REAL TIME AND IS IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE AT
THE END OF THE CLASS. IN ADDITION, THIS SYSTEM INEORPORATES A UNIQUE
VIDEO SEAREH ALGORITHM WHIEH ADOPTS A PHONETIE-BASED SEAREH TECHNOLOGY.
THIS ENABLES QUICK REVIEW OFTHE VIDEO EONTENT BY TYPED-IN KEYWORDS. THE
SYSTEM CAN AUTOMATIEAL1Y EREATE A VAST AMOUNT OF DIGITAL EONTENT AND
PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH AN EFFIEIENT LEARNING TOOL. CHAPTERII E- WORLD: A

IN THIS CHAPTER THE AUTHORS PRESENT E- WORLD, AN E-LEARNING PLATFORM
ABLE TO MANAGE AND TRACE ADAPTIVE LEARNING PROCESSES WHICH ARE DESIGNED
AND CREATED BY MEANS OF A VISUALLANGUAGE BASED TOOL. TO ADDRESS THE GOAL
TO HAVE A PLATFORM EASILY EXTENSIBLE WITH NEW SERVICES, THE AUTHORS HAVE
DESIGNED IT SELECTING A SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURE BASED ON THE USE OF WEB
SERVICES AND A SUITABLE MIDDLEWARE COMPONENT. TO TRACE ADAPTIVE LEARNING
PROCESSES E- WORLD ALSO INTEGRATES AS WEB SERVICE A SUITABLE
IMPLEMENTATION OF A RUN- TIME ENVIRONMENT COMPLIANT WITH THE SHARABLE
CONTENT OBJECT REFERENCE MODEL (SCORM) STANDARD. THEIR PROPOSAL ALSO
SUPPORTS THE ANYTIME AND ANYWHERE LEARNING PARADIGM AS IT ENABLES
LEARNERS TO ENJOY LINEAR OR ADAPTIVE PROCESSES USING ANY DEVICE EQUIPPED
WITH A STANDARD WEB BROWSER. CHAPTERIII AN EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE
APPROACH TO DEVELOPING ENGINEERING E-TRAINING COURSES 26 JUDY ER. TSENG,
CHUNG BUA UNIVERSITY, TAIWAN WEN-LING TSAI, CHUNG BUA UNIVERSITY, TAIWAN
GWO-JEN BWANG. NATIONAL UNIVERSITY 0/ TAINAN, TAIWAN PO-BAN WU. NATIONAL
UNIVERSITY O/TAINAN, TAIWAN IN DEVELOPING TRADITIONALLEARNING MATERIALS,
QUALITY IS THE KEY ISSUE TO BE CONSIDERED. HOWEVER, FOR HIGH TECHNICAL
E-TRAINING COURSES, NOT ONLY THE QUALITY OF THE LEARNING MATERIALS BUT
ALSO THE EFFICIENCY OF DEVEL- OPING THE COURSES NEEDS TO BE TAKEN INTO
CONSIDERATION. IT IS ACHALLENGING ISSUE FOR EXPERIENCED ENGINEERS TO
DEVELOP UP-TO-DATE E-TRAINING COURSES FOR INEXPERIENCED ENGINEERS BEFORE
FURTHER NEW TECHNOLOGIES ARE PROPOSED. TO COPE WITH THESE PROBLEMS, A
CONCEPT RELATIONSHIP-ORIENTED APPROACH IS PROPOSED IN THIS CHAPTER. A
SYSTEM FOR DEVELOPING E-TRAINING COURSES HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED BASED ON
THE NOVEL APPROACH. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS SHOWED THAT THE NOVEL APPROACH
CAN SIGNIFICANTLY SHORTEN THE TIME NEEDED FOR DE- VELOPING E-TRAINING
COURSES, SUCH THAT ENGINEERS CAN RECEIVE UP-TO-DATE TECHNOLOGIES IN
TIME. CHAPTERIV A SCORM COMPLIANT COURSEWARE AUTHORING TOOL FOR
SUPPORTING PERVASIVE LEARNING 40 TE-BUA WANG, TAMKANG UNIVERSITY, CHINA
FLORA CHIA-I CHANG, TAMKANG UNIVERSITY, CHINA THE SHARABLE CONTENT
OBJECT REFERENCE MODEL (SCORM) INCLUDES A REPRESENTATION OF DISTANCE
LEARNING CONTENTS AND A BEHAVIOR DEFINITION OFHOW USERS SHOULD INTERACT
WITH THE CONTENTS. GENERALLY, SCORM- COMPLIANT SYSTEMS WERE BASED ON
MULTIMEDIA AND WEB TECHNOLOGIES ON PCS. THE AUTHORS FURTHER BUILD A
PERVASIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT, WHICH ALLOWS USERS TO READ
SCORM-COMPLIANT TEXTBOOKS WITH MULTI- MODALLEARNING DEVICES. RESPECTING
THE LEARNING CONTENTS FOR SUPPORTING SUCH LEARNING ENVIRONMENT, AN
EFFICIENT AUTHORING TOOL WAS DEVELOPED FOR SERVING THIS GOAL. SOME
SPECIFIC TAGS WERE DEFINED TO SPECIFY THE CORRESPONDING INFORMATION OR
INTERACTIONS THAT CANNOT BE PERFORMED IN THE HARDCOPY BOOKS. THESE TAGS
CAN BE PRINTED IN SCORM-COMPLIANT TEXTBOOKS AND RECOGNIZED BY HYPER PEN
TO FACILITATE THE AFFIN- ITY BETWEEN THE PHYSICAL TEXTBOOKS AND DIGITAL
WORLD. THEREFORE, USERS CAN READ THE SCORM-COMPLIANT HARDCOPY TEXTBOOKS
IN A TRADITIONAL MANNER. THE AUTHORED COURSE CONTENTS WILL BE THE SAME
WHILE APPLYING TO THE MULTIMODALLEARNING DEVICES WITH DIFFERENT LAYOUTS.
CBAPTERV AN ONTOLOGY- BASED E- LEARNING SCENARIO 63 WENYING GUO,
ZHEJIANG GONGSHANG UNIVERSITY, CHINA SELECTING APPROPRIATE LEARNING
SERVICES FOR A LEARNER FROM A LARGE NUMBER OF HETEROGENEOUS KNOWLEDGE
SOURCES IS A COMPLEX AND CHALLENGING TASK. THIS CHAPTER ILLUSTRATES AND
DISCUSSES HOW SEMANTIC WEB TECHNOLOGIES CAN BE APPLIED TO E-IEARNING
SYSTEM TO HELP LEARNER IN SELECTING APPROPRIATE LEARNING COURSE OR
RETRIEVING RELEVANT INFORMATION. IT FIRSTLY PRESENTS THE MAIN FEATURES
OF E-LEARNING SCENARIO AND THE ONTOLOGY ON WHICH IT IS BASED; THEN
ILLUSTRATES THE SCENARIO ONTOLOGY WITH THE TRAINING DOMAIN AND THE
APPLICATION DOMAIN. FINALLY, IT PRESENTS SEMANTIC QUERYING AND SEMANTIC
MAPPING APPROACH. CBAPTERVI ADAPTIVE SYNCHRONIZATION OF SEMANTICALLY

RESEARCH CENTER, USA GAI/ E. KAISER, CO/UMBIA UNIVERSITY, USA TIECHENG
LIU, UNIVERSITY O/SOUTH CARO/INA, USA JOHN R KENDER, CO/UMBIA
UNIVERSITY, USA THE INCREASING POPULARITY OF ONLINE COURSES HAS
HIGHLIGHTED THE NEED FOR COLLABORATIVE LEARNING TOOLS FOR STUDENT
GROUPS. IN ADDITION, THE INTRODUCTION OF LECTURE VIDEOS INTO THE ONLINE
CURRICULUM HAS DRAWN ATTENTION TO THE DISPARITY IN THE NETWORK RESOURCES
AVAILABLE TO STUDENTS. THE AUTHORS PRESENT AN E-IEARN- ING ARCHITECTURE
AND ADAPTATION MODEL CALLED ADAPTIVE INTERACTIVE INTERNET TEAM VIDEO
(AI2TV), WHICH ALLOWS GROUPS OF STUDENTS TO COLLABORATIVELY VIEW A VIDEO
IN SYNCHRONY. AI2TV UPHOLDS THE INVARIANT THAT EACH STUDENT WILL VIEW
SEMANTICALLY EQUIVALENT CONTENT AT ALL TIM ES. A SEMANTIC COMPRESSION
MODEL IS DEVELOPED TO PROVIDE INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS AT DIFFERENT LEVEL OF
DETAILS TO ACCOMMODATE DYNAMIC NETWORK CONDITIONS AND USERS SYSTEM
REQUIREMENTS. WE TAKE ADVANTAGE OFTHE SEMANTIC COMPRESSION ALGORITHM S
ABILITY TO PROVIDE DIFFERENT LAYERS OF SEMANTICALLY EQUIVALENT VIDEO BY
ADAPTING THE CLIENT TO PLAY AT THE APPROPRIATE LAYER THAT PROVIDES THE
CLIENT WITH THE RICHEST POSSIBLE VIEWING EXPERIENCE. VIDEO PLAYER AC-
TIONS, IIKE PLAY, PAUSE, AND STOP CAN BE INITIATED BY ANY GROUP MEMBER
AND THE RESULTS OF THOSE ACTIONS ARE SYNCHRONIZED WITH ALL THE OTHER
STUDENTS. THESE FEATURES ALLOW STUDENTS TO REVIEW A LECTURE VIDEO IN
TANDEM, FACILITATING THE LEARNING PROCESS. EXPERIMENTAL TRIALS SHOW THAT
AI2TV SUCCESSFULLY SYNCHRONIZES INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS FOR DISTRIBUTED
STUDENTS WHILE CONCURRENTLY OPTIMIZING THE VIDEO QUALITY, EVEN UNDER
CONDITIONS OFFIUCTUATING BANDWIDTH, BY ADAPTIVELY ADJUSTING THE QUALITY
LEVEL FOR EACH STUDENT WHILE STILL MAINTAINING THE INVARIANT.
CBAPTERVLL REFINING THE RESULTS OF AUTOMATIE E-TEXTBOOK CONSTRUCTION BY
CLUSTERING 87 JING CHEN, CITY UNIVERSITY 0/ HONG KONG, CHINA QING LI,
CITY UNIVERSITY 0/ HONG KONG, CHINA LING FENG, TSINGHUA UNIVERSITY,
CHINA THE ABUNDANCE OF KNOWLEDGE-RICH INFORMATION ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB
MAKES COMPILING AN ONLINE E-TEXTBOOK BOTH POSSIBLE AND NECESSARY. IN
THEIR PREVIOUS WORK, THE AUTHORS PROPOSED AN APPROACH TO AUTOMATICALLY
GENERATE AN E-TEXTBOOK BY MINING THE RANKED LISTS OFTHE SEARCH ENGINE.
HOWEVER, THE PER- FORMANCE OF THE APPROACH WAS DEGRADED BY WEB PAGES
THAT WERE RELEVANT BUT NOT ACTUALLY DISCUSSING THE DESIRED CONCEPT. IN
THIS CHAPTER, THEY EXTEND THE PREVIOUS WORK BY APPLYING A CLUSTERING
APPROACH BEFORE THE MINING PROCESS. THE CLUSTERING APPROACH SERVES AS A
POST-PROCESSING STAGE TO THE ORIGINAL RESULTS RETRIEVED BY THE SEARCH
ENGINE, AND AIMS TO REACH AN OPTIMUM STATE IN WHICH ALL WEB PAGES
ASSIGNED TO A CONCEPT ARE DISCUSSING THAT EXACT CONCEPT. CHAPTERVM

UNIVERSITY, CHINA CHINESE BRUSH CALLIGRAPHY IS A VALUABLE CIVILIZATION
LEGACY AND A HIGH ART OF SCHOLARSHIP. IT IS STILL POPULAR IN CHINESE
BANNERS, NEWSPAPER MASTHEADS, UNIVERSITY NAMES, AND CELEBRATION GIFTS.
THERE ARE WEB SITES THAT TRY TO HELP PEOPLE ENJOY AND LEARN CHINESE
CALLIGRAPHY. HOWEVER, THERE LACKS ADVANCED SERVICES SUCH AS
CONTENT-BASED RETRIEVAL OR VIVID WRITING PROCESS SIMULATION FOR
CALLIGRAPHY LEARNING. THIS CHAP- TER PROPOSES A NOVEL CHINESE
CALLIGRAPHY LEARNING APPROACH: FIRST, THE SCANNED CALLIGRAPHY PAGES WERE
SEGMENTED INTO INDIVIDUAL CALLIGRAPHY CHARACTERS USING MINIMUM-BOUNDING
BOX. SECOND, THE INDIVIDUAL CHARACTER S FEATURE INFORMATION WAS
EXTRAETED AND KEPT. THEN, A CORRESPONDING DATABASE WAS BUILT TO SERVE AS
A MAP BETWEEN THE FEATURE DATA AND THE ORIGINAL RAW DATA. FINALLY, A
RETRIEVAL ENGINE WAS CONSTRUCTED AND A DYNAMIC WRITING PROCESS WAS
SIMULATED 10 HELP LEARNERS GET THE CALLIGRAPHY CHARACTER THEY WERE
INTERESTED IN AND WATCH HOW IT WAS GENERATED STEP BY STEP. CHAPTERIX

INVESTIGATE THE USE OFLATENT SEMANTIC ANALYSIS (LSA), CRITIQUING
SYSTE~S, AND KNOWLEDGE BUILDING TO SUPPORT COMPUTER-BASED TEACHING OF
ENGLISH COMPOSITION. THEY HAVE BUDT AND TESTED AN ENGLISH COMPOSITION
CRITIQUING SYSTEM THAT MAKES USE OF LSA TO ANALYZE STUDENT ESSAYS AND
COMPUTE FEEDBACK BY COMPARING THEIR ESSAYS WITH TEACHER S MODEL ESSAYS.
LSA VALUES ARE INPUT T~.A CRITIQUING COMPONENT TO PROVIDE A USER
INTERFACE FOR THE STUDENTS. A SOFTWARE AGENT CAN ALSO USE THE CNTLC
FEEDBACK 10 COORDINATE A COLLABORATIVE KNOWLEDGE-BUILDING SESSION WITH
MULTIPLE USERS (STUDENTS AND TEACHERS). SHARED FEEDBACK PROVIDES SEED
QUESTIONS THAT CAN TRIGGER DISCUSSION AND EXTENDED REFIECTION ABOUT THE
NEXT PHASE OF WRITING. THEY PRESENT THE FIRST VERSION OF A PROTOTYPE WE
HAVE BUILT AND REPORT THE RESULTS FROM THREE EXPERIMENTS. THEY END THE
PAPER BY DESCRIBING THEIR PLANS FOR FUTURE WORK. CHAPTERX IMPROVING THE
USEFULNESS OFLEARNING OBJECTS BY MEANS OFPEDAGOGY-ORIENTED DESIGN 120
GIULIANA DETTORI, ITD-CNR, ITALY PAOLA FORCHERI, LMATI-CNR, ITALY MARIA
GRAZIA IERARDI, LMATI-CNR, ITALY LEARNING OBJECTS (LOS) ARE INCREASINGLY
CONSIDERED POTENTIALLY HELPFUL TO IMPROVE TEACHERS WORKAND TO SPREAD
INNOVATION IN THE SCHOOL SYSTEM. THEIR TECHNOLOGICAL ROOTS, HOWEVER,
OFTEN MAKE THEM SCARCELY APPEALING TO THE TEACHERS. A KEY ISSUE TO
TACKLE IN ORDER TO BOOST THEIR DIFFUSION IS TO MAKE THEM CLOSER TO
ACTUAL TEACHER S WORK BY EMPHASISING PEDAGOGICAL ASPECTS. TO THIS END,
THE AUTHORS PROPOSE A TYPOLOGY OFLOS THAT ALLOWS TEACHERS TO HIGHLIGHT
DIFFERENCES IN THE PEDAGOGICAL APPROACH EMBEDDED IN THEIR PRO- DUCTIONS,
HENCE SHARING NOT ONLY CONTENT BUT ALSO EDUCATIONAL COMPETENCE.
MOREOVER, IN ORDER TO ALLOW RE-USER TEACHERS TO EXPLICIT AND SHARE THE
PEDAGOGICAL EXPERIENCE GAINED WHILE RE-USING SOME MATERIAL, THEY SUGGEST
ENDOWING REPOSITORIES WITH AD HOC FACILITIES, SUCH AS COMMENTS AND
ITINERARIES RELATED TO THE REPOSITORY S LOS. COMMENTS WOULD ALLOW PEOPLE
TO SHARE NARRATIONS OF EXPERIENCES OF USE, WHILE LEARNING ITINERARIES
WOULD POINT OUT LOGICAL CONNECTIONS OF VARIOUS KINDS AMONG SMALL GROUPS
OF LOS, HENCE HELPING THE USERS OVERCOME THE CONTENT FRAGMENTATION
INDUCED BY THE GRANULARITY OF LOS. THESE PROPOSALS ARE DESCRIBED AND
EXEMPLIFIED BY DRAWING FROM OUR TRAINING EXPERIENCE. CHAPTERXI ADAPTIVE

MOTION ANIMATION HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MAJOR RESEARCH TOPICS IN THE FIELD
OF COMPUTER GRAPHICS FOR DECADES. TECHNIQUES DEVELOPED IN THIS AREA HELP
TO PRESENT HUMAN MOTIONS IN VARIOUS APPLICATIONS. THIS IS CRUCIAL FOR
ENHANCING THE REALISM AS WEIL AS PROMOTING THE USER INTEREST IN THE
APPLICATIONS. TO CARRY THIS MERIT TO E-LEARNING APPLICATIONS, THE
AUTHORS HAVE DEVELOPED EFFICIENT TECHNIQUES FOR DELIVERING HUMAN MOTION
INFORMATION OVER THE INTERNET TO COLLABORATING E-IEARNING USERS AND
REVEALING THE MOTION INFORMATION IN THE CLIENT MACHINES WITH DIFFERENT
RENDERING CAPABILITY. THEIR METHOD OFFERS A MECHANISM TO EXTRACT HUMAN
MOTION DATA AT VARIOUS LEVELS OF DETAIL (LOD). THEY ALSO PROPOSE A SET
OF IMPORTANCE FACTORS TO ALLOW AN E-LEARNING SYSTEM TO DETERMINE THE LOD
OFTHE HUMAN MOTION FOR RENDERING AS WEIL AS TRANSMISSION, ACCORDING TO
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE MOTION AND THE AVAILABLE NETWORK BANDWIDTH. AT THE
END OFTHE PAPER, THEY DEMONSTRATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OFTHE NEW METHOD
WITH SOME EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS. CHAPTERXII EWORKBOOK: AN ON-LINE TESTING

UNIVERSITA DI SALEMO, ITALY VITTORIO FUCCELLA, UNIVERSITA DI SALEMO,
ITALY ON-LINE TESTING IS THAT SECTOR OF E-IEARNING AIMED AT ASSESSING
LEAMER S KNOWLEDGE THROUGH E-IEARNING MEANS. IN ON-LINE TESTING, DUE TO
THE NECESSITY OF EVALUATING A BIG MASS OF LEARNERS IN STRICT TIMES, THE
MEANS FOR KNOWLEDGE EVALUATION HAD TO EVOLVE TO SATISFY THE NEW
NECESSITIES: OBJECTIVE TESTS, MORE RAP- IDLY ASSESSABLE, STARTED GAINING
MORE CREDENCE IN THE DETERMINATION OF LEARNERS RESULTS. IN THIS
CHAPTER, THE AUTHORS PRESENT AN ON-LINE TESTING SYSTEM, NAMED EWORKBOOK,
WHICH CAN BE USED FOR EVALUATING LEARNER S KNOWLEDGE BY CREATING (THE
TUTOR) AND TAKING (THE LEARNER) ON-LINE TESTS BASED ON MULTIPLE CHOICE
QUESTION TYPE. ITS USE IS SUITABLE WITHIN THE ACADEMIC ENVIRONMENT IN A
BLENDED LEARNING APPROACH, BY PROVIDING TUTORS WITH AN ADDITIONAL
ASSESSMENT TOOL, AND LEARNERS WITH A DISTANCE SELF-ASSESSMENT MEANS.
AMONG OTHER FEATURES, EWORKBOOK CAN RECORD AND VISUALIZE, IN A SUITABLE
GRAPHICAL FORMAT, LEARNER S INTERACTIONS WITH THE SYSTEM INTERFACE
DURING THE TEST SESSION. THIS IS VALUABLE INFORMATION FOR UNDERSTAND-
ING THE LEARNER S BEHAVIOUR WHEN TAKING A TEST. IN PARTICULAR, THE
GRAPHICAL ANALYSIS OFTHE TEST OUTCOMES HAS HELPED US IN THE DISCOVETY OF
SEVERAL STRATEGIES EMPLOYED BY THE LEARNERS TO PERFORM THE TEST. IN THE
CHAPTER, THE MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SYSTEM ARE PRESENTED TOGETHER
WITH A RATIONALE BEHIND THEM AND AN OUTLINE OF THE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
OF THE SYSTEM. CHAPTER XILL CHOOSING MOODLE: AN EVALUATION OFLEARNING

COMPUTER AIDED ASSESSMENT IS A COMMON APPROACH USED BY EDUCATIONAL
INSTITUTIONS. THE BENEFITS RANGE INTO THE DESIGN OF TEACHING, LEARNING,
AND INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS. WHILE SOME SUCH SYSTEMS IMPLEMENT FULLY
AUTOMATED MARKING FOR MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS AND FILL-IN-THE-BLANKS,
THEY ARE INSUFFICIENT WHEN HUMAN CRITIQUING IS REQUIRED. CURRENT SYSTEMS
DEVELOPED IN ISOLATION HAVE LITTLE REGARD TO SCALABILITY AND

PRESENTS AN ENHANCED SET OF THESE STANDARDS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE.
CHAPTERXV STREAMING OF CONTINUOUS MEDIA FOR DISTANCE EDUCATION SYSTEMS
190 A/I DASHTI, KUWAIT UNIVERSITY, KUWAIT MAYTHAM SAFAR, KUWAIT
UNIVERSITY, KUWAIT DISTANCE EDUCATION IS THE DELIVERY OF EDUCATIONAL
PROGRARNS TO OFF-SITE STUDENTS. IT USES A WIDE SPECTRUM OF TECHNOLOGIES
SUCH AS THE INTERNET AND MULTIMEDIA SYSTEMS TO DELIVER THE COURSE
MATERIAL TO REMOTE STUDENTS. THIS CREATED NEW CHALLENGES REGARDING THE
DELIVERY OF CONTINUOUS MEDIA (STREAMING), ESPECIALLY THROUGH THE
INTERNET. ACHALLENGING TASK WHEN IMPLEMENTING MULTIMEDIA SYSTEMS FOR
DISTANCE EDUCATION IS TO SUPPORT THE SUSTAINED BANDWIDTH REQUIRED TO
DISPLAY STREAMING MEDIA (SM) OBJECTS, SUCH AS VIDEO AND AUDIO OBJECTS.
UNLIKE TRADITIONAL DATA TYPES, SUCH AS RECORDS, TEXT, AND STILL IMAGES,
SM OBJECTS ARE USUALLY LARGE IN SIZE AND ARE ISOCHRONOUS IN NATURE
(I.E., HAVE REAL-TIME DISPLAY REQUIREMENTS). FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS, A
NUMBER OF STUDIES HAVE CONSIDERED THE DESIGN OF SM SERVERS. IN THIS
ARTICLE, THE AUTHORS CONSIDER THE DESIGN OF A FRAMEWORK FOR CUSTOMIZED
SM PRESENTATIONS, WHERE EACH PRESENTATION CONSISTS OF A NUMBER OF SM
OBJECTS THAT SHOULD BE RETRIEVED AND DISPLAYED TO THE USER IN A COHERENT
FASHION. IN ADDITION, WE PROVIDE DIFFERENT CLASSIFICATION OF
APPLICATIONS (E.G., RPA, FPA) ACCORDING TO THE RESTRIC- TIONS IMPOSED BY
THE PRESENTATION (E.G., DISPLAY-QUALITY, DELAY). NEXT, THEY DESCRIBE A
RETRIEVAL OPTIMIZER (PRIME) THAT CAPTURES THE FTEXIBILITIES AND
REQUIREMENTS IMPOSED BY THE USER QUERY, USER PROFILE, AND SES- SION
PROFILE. THEN, IT DETERMINES HOW THIS QUERY SCRIPT SHOULD BE IMPOSED
AGAINST THE CONTINUOUS MEDIA (CM) SERVER TO REDUCE CONTENTION.
FURTHERMORE, THEY DISCUSS THE ISSUES THAT ARE RELATED TO THE OPTIMIZER
SUCH AS: (I) SEARCH SPACE, (2) COST MODEL, AND (3) A STRATEGY TO SEARCH
FOR THE BEST RETRIEVAL PLAN. THEY ALSO PROVIDE A COST MODEL TO EVALUATE
EACH CORRECT RETRIEVAL PLAN THAT IS BEING CONSIDERED, AND THE SEARCH
STRATEGY EXPLORES THE SEARCH SPACE FOR THE BEST RETRIEVAL PLAN BASED ON
THE DEFINED METRICS. FINALLY, THEY EXPLAIN THE ROLE OF MEMORY BUFFERING
IN ALLEVIATING THE SERVER BANDWIDTH FRAGMENTATION PROBLEM BY AL- LOWING
THE EMULATION OF HIGHER SERVER BANDWIDTHS WHEN NECESSARY USING TWO
MECHANISMS: 1) SIMPLE MEMORY BUFFERING MECHANISM (SIMB), AND 2) VARIABLE
RATE MEMORY BUFFERING MECHANISM (VARB). THEIR PRELIMIRIARY EXPERIMENTAL
RESULTS SHOW THE FEASIBILITY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF OUR PROPOSED MODEL AND
TECHNIQUES IN GENERATING NEAR OPTIMAL RETRIEVAL PLANS FOR SCHEDULING AND
DISPLAYING SM OBJECTS. CHAPTERXVI HOW DID THEY STUDY AT A DISTANCE?
EXPERIENCES OFIGNOU GRADUATES 217 MANJU/IKA SRIVASTAVA, INDIRA GANDHI
NATIONAL OPEN UNIVERSITY, INDIA VENUGOPAL REDDY, INDIRA GANDHI NATIONAL
OPEN UNIVERSITY, INDIA THE QUESTION WHY SOME LEARNERS SUCCESSFULLY STUDY
THROUGH DISTANCE MODE AND OTHERS DO NOT IS INCREAS- INGLY BECOMING
IMPORTANT AS OPEN AND DISTANCE LEARNING (ODL) HAS COME TO OCCUPY A
PROMINENT PLACE IN PROVIDING HIGHER EDUCATION TO LARGE SEGMENTS OFTHE
POPULATION IN INDIA. WITH BARELY 1112 STUDENTS STUDYING THROUGH DISTANCE
MODE IN 1962, THE NUMBER HAS CROSSED 2.8 MILLION IN 2006. THIS CHAPTER
PRESENTS THE FINDINGS OF AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH STUDY CONDUCTED TO
INVESTIGATE THE STUDY HABITS OF SUCCESSFUL DISTANCE LEARNERS OFTHE INDIA
GANDHI NATIONAL OPEN UNIVERSITY (IGNOU). EVERY YEAR, NEARLY
70,000-80,000 PASS OUT OF IGNOU. WHAT STRATEGIES WERE ADOPTED BY THESE
DIVERSE GROUPS, WHAT MEDIA THEY UTILIZED, AND WHAT MODES OF SUPPORT THEY
PREFERRED ARE SOME OF THE MAJOR ISSUES ADDRESSED IN THIS STUDY.
CHAPTERXVSS UBIQUITOUS COMPUTING TECHNOLOGIES IN EDUCATION 230 GWO-JEN
HWANG, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY 0/ TAINAN, TAIWAN TING-TING WU, NATIONAL
UNIVERSITY O/TAINAN, TAIWAN YEN-JUNG CHEN, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY O/TAINAN,
TAIWAN THE PROSPEROUS DEVELOPMENT OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION AND SENSOR
TECHNOLOGIES HAS ATTRACTED THE AT- TENTION OF RESEARCHERS FROM BOTH
COMPUTER AND EDUCATION FIELDS. VARIOUS INVESTIGATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE FOR
APPLYING THE NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO EDUCATION PURPOSES, SUCH THAT MORE
ACTIVE AND ADAPTIVE LEARNING ACTIVITIES CAN BE CONDUCTED IN THE REAL
WORLD. NOWADAYS, UBIQUITOUS LEARNING (U-IEARNING) HAS BECOME A POPULAR
TREND OF EDUCATION ALL OVER THE WORLD, AND HENCE IT IS WORTH REVIEWING
THE POTENTIAL ISSUES CONCEMING THE USE OF U-COMPUTING TECHNOLOGIES IN
EDUCATION, WHICH COULD BE HELPFUL TO THE RESEARCHERS WHO ARE INTERESTED
IN THE INVESTIGATION OF MOBILE AND UBIQUITOUS LEARNING. CHAPTERXVM AN
ELEARNING PORTAL TO TEACH GEOGRAPHIE INFORMATION SCIENCES 234 S.
GRUNWALD, UNIVERSITY 0/ FLORIDA, USA B. HOOVER, UNIVERSITY 0/ FLORIDA,
USA GL BRULAND, UNIVERSITY 0/ HAWAI I MAENOA, USA IN THIS CHAPTER THE
AUTHORS DESCRIBE THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AN EMERGING VIRTUALLEARNING
ENVIRONMENT TO TEACH GIS AND SPATIAL SCIENCES TO DISTANCE EDUCATION
GRADUATE STUDENTS. THEY DISCUSS THE BENEFITS AND CONSTRAINTS OF OUR
MIXED ARCHITECTURE WITH THE MAIN FOCUS ON THE INNOVATIVE HYBRID
ARCHITECTURE OFTHE VIRTUAL GIS COMPUTER LABORATORY. CRITERIA THAT WERE
USED TO DEVELOP THE VIRTUAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT ENTAILED THE FOLLOWING:
(I) FACILITATING STUDENT-INSTRUCTOR, STUDENT-COMPUTER, AND
STUDENT-STUDENT INTERAE- TIVITY USING A MIX OF SYNCHRONOUS AND
ASYNCHRONOUS COMMUNICATION TOOLS; (2) DEVELOPING AN INTERACTIVE ONLINE
LEARNING ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH STUDENTS HAVE ACCESS TO A SUITE OF PASSIVE
AND ACTIVE MULTI-MEDIA TOOLS; AND (3) ALLOWING STUDENT ACCESS TO A MIXED
WEB-FACILITATED / HYBRID ARCHITECTURE THAT STIMULATES THEIR COGNITIVE
GEOGRAPHIE SKILLS AND PROVIDES HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE IN USING GIS.

TO THE UNIVERSITY OF THE FUTURE 246 MARIA MANUELA CUNHA, POLYTECHNIE
INSTITUTE O/CAVADO AND AVE, PORTUGAL GORAN D. PUTNIK, UNIVERSITY 0/
MINHO, PORTUGAL INDIVIDUALISED OPEN AND DISTANCE LEARNING AT THE
UNIVERSITY CONTINUING EDUCATION AND POST-GRADUATE EDUCATION LEVELS IS A
CENTRAL ISSUE OF TODAY. THE ADVANCED INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
TECHNOLO- GIES TOGETHER WITH SEVERAL APPLICATIONS OFFER NEW
PERSPECTIVES, SUCH AS THE SO-CALLED VIRTUAL UNIVERSITY. SIMULTANEOUSLY,
TO GAIN MARKET SHARE, SEVERAL ORGANISATIONAL ARRANGEMENTS ARE EMERGING
IN THE VIRTUAL UNIVERSITY FIELD, LIKE CONSORTIA ARRANGEMENTS AND JOINT
VENTURE INITIATIVES BETWEEN AND AMONG INSTITUTIONS AND ORGANISATIONS.
THE DYNAMICALLY CHANGING SOCIAL AND ECONOMICAL ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE LIVE
CLAIMS FOR NEW APPROACHES TO VIRTUAL AND FLEXIBLE UNIVERSITY CONTINUING
AND POST-GRADUATE EDUCATION, SUCH AS THE CONCEPT OF AGILENIRTUAL
UNIVERSITY PROPOSED BY THE AUTHORS. HOWEVER, THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS
CONCEPT (AND OF OTHER SIMILAR CONCEPTS) DOES NOT RELY JUST ON BASIC
INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION IN- FRASTRUCTURE, NEITHER ON DISPERSEDLY
DEVELOPED APPLICATIONS. ALTHOUGH ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY AS SUPPORT, THE
ADDED VALUE COMES FROM THE HIGHER-LEVEL FUNCTIONS TO SUPPORT
INDIVIDUALISED LEAMING PROJECTS. TBE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE AGILENTRTUAL
UNIVERSITY CONCEPT REQUIRES A FRAMEWORK AND A SPECIFIC SUPPORTING
ENVIRONMENT, A MARKET OFTEACHING RESOURCES, WH ICH ARE DISCUSSED IN THE
CHAPTER. CHAPTERXX RATIONALE, DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPUTER

STURT UNIVERSITY, NSW, AUSTRALIA JESSE S. JIN, UNIVERSITY OFNEWEASTLE,
NSW, AUSTRALIA THIS CHAPTER PRESENTS A SCHEMATIC APPLICATION OF COMPUTER
VISION TECHNOLOGIES TO E-LEARNING THAT IS SYNCHRONOUS,
PEER-TO-PEER-BASED, AND SUPPORTS AN INSTRUCTOR S INTERACTION WITH
NON-COMPUTER TEACHING EQUIPMENTS. TBE CHAPTER FIRST DISCUSSES THE
IMPORTANCE OFTHESE FOCUSED E-LEAMING AREAS, WHERE THE PROP- ERTIES
INCLUDE ACCURATE BIDIRECTIONAL INTERACTION AND LOW COST HARDWARE; SYSTEM
PORTABILITY AND VERSATILE VISION TECHNOLOGY ARE EMPHASIZED. IN THE
SUBSEQUENT SECTIONS, THE AUTHORS PRESENT SOME RESULTS AIMING TO ACHIEVE
THESE GOALS. IN PARTICULAR, THEY HIGHLIGHT THE MOST RECENT ADVANCEMENTS
IN THE INTERACTIVE PTZ CAMERA CONTROL FROM BOTH THE INSTRUCTOR AND
REMOTE STUDENT. TBEY ALSO ILLUSTRATED HOW THESE RESULTS HAVE
SUCCESSFULLY ADDRESSED THE CHALLENGES. CHAPTERXXL SUPPORTING LEARNERS

MANS, FRANEE THIS CHAPTER PRESENTS AN APPROACH .AND TOOLS THAT CAN HELP
LEARNERS APPROPRIATE A WEB-BASED LEARNING CURRICULUM AND BECOME ACTIVE
PARTICIPANTS IN THEIR LEARNING. TBE APPROACH IS BASED ON A DETAILED
MODEL- ING OFTHE CURRICULUM AND INTENDS TO EQUIP THE LEARNERS WITH
DIFFERENT COMPUTER-BASED TOOLS FACILITATING A MULTIPLE POINT OF VIEW
PERCEPTION OF THE CURRICULUM, WHILE PROMOTING SELF EVALUATION AND SELF
REGULATION OFTHE LEARNERS CURRICULUM PERFORMANCE. TBE PROPOSED
ARCHITECTURE IS GENERIC AND CAN BE USED IN THE CONTEXT OF AN ALREADY
EXISTING WEB-BASED LEARNING SYSTEM. TBE AUTHORS DEFINE WHAT WE CALL
APPROPRIA- TION, DESCRIBE OUR APPROACH, PRESENT DIFFERENT TOOLS THAT
HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED, AND PRESENT THE FINDINGS FROM THE FIRST
EXPERIMENTS. CHAPTERXXSS DEVELOPMENT OF A WEB-BASED SYSTEM FOR DIAGNOSING

UNIVERSITY, TAIWAN IN THE PAST DECADES, ENGLISH LEAMING HAS RECEIVED
LOTS OF ATTENTION ALL OVER THE WORLD, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT
NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS. VARIOUS ENGLISH LEAMING AND TESTING SYSTEMS
HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED ON THE INTERNET. NEVERTHELESS, MOST EXISTING ENGLISH
TESTING SYSTEMS REPRESENT THE LEAMING STATUS OF A STUDENT BY ASSIGNING
THAT STUDENT WITH A SCORE OR GRADE. THIS APPROACH MAKES THE STUDENT
AWARE OFHIS/HER LEAMING STATUS THROUGH THE SCORE OR GRADE, BUT THE
STUDENT MIGHT BE UNABLE TO IMPROVE HIS/HER LEAMING STATUS WITHOUT
FURTHER GUIDANCE. IN THIS CHAPTER, AN INTELLIGENT ENGLISH TENSE LEAMING
AND DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM IS PROPOSED, WHICH IS ABLE TO IDENTIFY STUDENT
LEAMING PROBLEMS ON ENGLISH VERB TENSES AND TO PROVIDE PERSONALIZED
LEAMING SUGGESTIONS IN ACCORDANCE WITH EACH STUDENT S LEAMING PORTFOLIO.
EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS ON HUNDREDS OF COLLEGE STUDENTS HAVE DEPICTED THE
SUPERIORITY OF THE NOVEL APPROACH. CHAPTERXXSSI INHABITED VIRTUAL LEAMING

OFTAINAN, TAIWAN THE CHAPTER OUTLINES A NEW PARADIGM AND ITS UNDERLYING
RATIONALES FOR IMPLEMENTING NETWORKED LEAM- ING ENVIRONMENTS THAT IS
EMERGING FROM NEW TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS MULTI-USER PLATFORM, VIRTUAL
WORLDS, VIRTUAL LEAMING COMMUNITY, AND INTELLIGENT AGENTS. THE PROPOSED
PARADIGM OF THE NETWORKED LEAMING ENVIRONMENTS IS DESCRIBED AS INHABITED
VIRTUALLEAMING WORLDS (IVLW), WHICH IS A SHARED LEAMING SPACE IN 3-D
FORMAT AND POPULATED WITH AVATARS THAT ARE THE REPRESENTATIONS OFLEAMERS
WHO ARE GEOGRAPHICALLY DISPERSED AROUND THE WORLD. THE VIRTUALLEAMING
WORLDS ARE ALSO COMPOSED OF OBJECTS SUCH AS INTELLIGENT AGENTS AND
LEAMING MATERIALS. A PILOT SYSTEM IS CREATED BASED ON THE DISCUSSED
RATIONALES OF INHABITED VIRTUAL LEAMING WORLDS. A PRELIMINARY EMPIRICAL
STUDY FOCUSING ON THE SELECTED LEAMING BEHAVIORS IN YOUNG LEAMERS ALSO
HAS BEEN CONDUCTED WITH THE PILOT SYSTEM. THE RESULTS OF THE EMPIRICAL
STUDY AND SUGGESTIONS FOR ENHANCING THE PILOT SYSTEM ARE DISCUSSED IN
THE CLOSING SECTION OF THE CHAPTER. CHAPTER XXIV RESEARCH AND PRACTICE
OF E-LEAMING IN CANADA 2008 356 RORY MCGREAL, ATHABASCA UNIVERSITY,
CANADA TERRY ANDERSON, ATHABASCA UNIVERSITY, CANADA ANY VIEW OF
EL-EAMING IN CANADA MUST BE INFORMED BY THE UNIQUELY CANADIAN FEATURE OF
PROVINCIAL JURISDICTION OVER EDUCATION. THEREFORE ANY INVESTIGATION OF
E-LEAMING IN CANADA MUST FOCUS MORE ON SPECIFIC PROVINCIAL INITIATIVES
IN TECHNOLOGICALLY ENHANCED LEARNING RATHER THAN A CANADIAN OVERVIEW. A
DISTINCTIVE CANADIAN MODEL DOES NOT EXIST. THE PROVINCIALITY
OFCANADIAN E-IEAMING SERVES TO HIGHLIGHT THE INABILITY OF CANADA TO
SUSTAIN NATIONAL STRATEGIES AND FOCUS AS IN OTHER COUNTRIES DUE TO THE
FRACTIOUS NATURE OF FEDERAL/PROVINCIAL RELATIONS IN EDUCATION.
