Applying the adaptive learning material producing strategy to group learning

Abstract

Because cooperative learning and Internet technologies are increasingly universal, how to help learners to learn effectively using the on-line learning systems and adopting teaching processes is increasingly important. Based on conceptual graph theory, this study proposed a strategy for efficiently storing learner knowledge structure and producing learning materials. By following the teaching process involved in giving lessons, the strategy uses the stored knowledge structure to produce adaptive group learning material for group learning activities. Additionally, this study used a curriculum to implement an experiment, and then used the experimental results to prove the ability of the proposed strategy to help learners to learn more efficiently. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.
