Flexible Course Configuration based on a Modular Course Model and a New Reference Mechanism
Abstract
This paper presents a new course model for IT-based flexible teaching and learning. In particular, the re-use of learning material and the configuration of goal-oriented and learneradapted courses are addressed. IT-based courses should be no longer monolithic but a flexible traversal of course modules. The emphasis is on the introduction of learning modules dedicated to the characteristics of a learning process, and a new method to configure flexible courses on the basis of these learning objects. In order to fully support the re-use of learning material, meta data are added to the learning objects. Therefore, standardization activities like the Instructional Management System project, the European ARIADNE project and the IEEE Learning Objects Metadata are considered.
