This article describes the development of a task-based framework for providing learning within the workplace using networked multimedia. A philosophy is adopted for the framework that builds on the recognition that tasks must reflect the social...

The student created narrative based assessment is based on a student demonstrating their understanding of a topic by creating a narrative. That narrative usually takes the form of the exposition of a series of facts and the relationship between them,...

The implementation of a design for a game based virtual learning environment is described, which is then tested using a group of first year students learning java programming. The focus of the testing is to determine the viability of a muli-level,...

The DECADE project is concerned with the capture of data from digital authoring and development environments, to enable quantitative and qualitative analysis to determine the expertise of individual practitioners. The purpose behind this activity is ...

Following on from earlier experiments, a second implementation of a design for a game-based virtual learning environment is described, which is then tested using groups of first year students learning C++ programming. This experiment was designed...

This paper describes a methodology for integrating learning material into computer games for multiple target audiences. The chosen approach to integrating learning material within a games context is embedding.

In this paper, we discuss the problems students face when learning computer programming and describe our ongoing work that enables students to learn programming through the use of puzzle solving game-play. Learning how to program is difficult and...

A series of implementation of a design for a game-based virtual learning environment is completed. These have been tested using groups of students learning various engineering subjects. These experiments were designed to see if with an environment...

Bateman et al (2007) state that tagging is largely unemployed in e-learning systems. Common e-learning platforms (for example Moodle) offer course and learner management tools, however, previous research has found that they offer little in the way...
