A mulimodeling framework for complex learning activity designs

Abstract

This paper proposes a modeling framework for learning activities centered on the design of their components (pedagogical instruments). The learning activity is represented as learning object where the structural components are the reusable objects representing the pedagogical instruments. This purpose presents a new current of learning activity design based on activity theory where its design means the specification of its specific teaching materials called pedagogical instruments, this material has the mediation role between the learner and the objects presented in the activity. The outcome of the presented project should be the convergence of cognitive, didactic, interface and content designs. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
