Abstract

Millions is being spent on installing networks, computers and assembling distance learning material and ICT (information and communications technology) software. Yet the network technology is not being used to assemble databases which researchers, managers and politicians can "data mine" to guide their investment. In the TLC project we are pioneering techniques for assembling and querying educational data. Our goal is to initiate research into the best methods of rapidly assessing the effectiveness of resources deployed and then interpreting the data to improve our educational performance. We are not trying to reinvent the wheel and produce yet another online learning environment like WebCT or Virtual-U. Instead we are building tools which will work in collaboration with these existing learning environments and provide teachers and students with valuable information about the usage of their learning environment. The TLC project aims to utilise the emerging standards such as those from the IMS project.
