Web Based Learning

The objective of this chapter is to present learner characteristics that mediate web-based learning. These characteristics include personal epistemological beliefs, beliefs about web-based learning, social-cultural beliefs, and preferences toward web-based learning environments. In addition to the effects of these affective factors, another factor that is also addressed in the chapter is the cognitive load induced by different web-based curriculum elements. Based on a literature review and the findings of some recent empirical studies, a web-based learning model is proposed to manifest the contributions of learner characteristics on learning in web-based contexts. Educational implications are then drawn corresponding to the web-based learning model.

The objective of this paper was to develop an immersive Web-based learning model and measure its effectiveness on improving self-questioning and self-study skills among graduate students. The proposed model was guided theoretically by the flipped classroom as a new Web-based learning trend. It was also guided pedagogically by active and reflective learning principles that support transforming the teaching and learning practices from content engagement to cognitive engagement. The targeted immersive learning model encompasses four reciprocal phases: Pro-act, Act, Reflect, and Re-act (PARR). A control group post-test only experimental design was applied in this paper to examine the effect of this new learning model on both self-questioning and self-study skills. To validate the suggested model, a convenience sample of graduate students studying an advanced statistics course was selected from the Distance Teaching and Training Program at the Arabian Gulf University during the second semester of the 2012/2013 academic year. The dependent variables in this research were measured by self-questioning skills scale and self-study skills scale. After designing and applying this new immersive Web-based learning model (PARR), findings revealed that using the flipped classroom through this immersive Web-based learning model has a statistical and practical impact on developing self-questioning and self-study skills among graduate students. Each student in the experimental group was able to master self-questioning skills needed to apply quantitative research data analysis knowledge and methods. In addition, each student in the experimental group scored more than theoretical average of the self-study skills scale. The results of this paper may increase the probability and genralizability of using flipped classroom to deliver other statistical course at all educational levels. The contribution of this research is that it qualifies the Web-based instructional practices to shift from content acquisition act to knowledge expression and creation act. In addition, the paper will be of benefit to people looking for pedagogical applications of virtual and blended learning environments for developing multiple ways to express what learners know and be able to do.

Web Based Learning

This chapter introduces a descriptive model of Web-based learning called The Integrated Learning Model (ILM). The ILM is a data-driven idea, conceptualized from three principle components “knowledge acquisition,” “practice effects,” and “assessment,” and refined with exploratory factor analysis. The Integrated Learning Model (ILM) has at its heart three powerful theoretical concepts that currently enjoy widespread recognition in the educational literature. Structural Equation Modeling was then applied to determine the model fit, and parameter loadings to explain the learning construct.

This paper explores the aspects of providing education through E-learning model evaluating its relevance to distance education and for ICT systems. A subset of E-learning is a Web based learning that makes the learning -easier, impressive, structured and properly managed. The paper defines an university ontology describing how e-learning provides resources which are available online and designated cloud that can be delivered anywhere any time among the users. In the proposed model data is stored in designated cloud and users are able to share efficiently the same as it provides services to learner. Provenance or trust with respect to the academic resource is a major concern in these types of models, users accessing data must be trustable which help learners, researchers, developers, and users in future work also. This paper proposes an e-learning model which is well organized and structured, such that the machine responds with the accurate, trustable, desired information and results. The paper defines an ontology for semantic structuring, semantic rendering and applies provenance on suggested ontology to achieve authentic results. It is also desired to establish trust of the source contents of the Semantic Web, with the result that a user receiving data will need to verify whether the received data from source is in fact trustable or not. The defined ontogoly is suitable for consumption of both man and machine in the context of the e-learning and Semantic data rendering Web Keywords

This research is a preliminary study that is used as a guide to develop an interactive web-based learning model at Electrical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Padang State University (PSU). This research is conducted through a literature review on factors that influence the development of web-based learning model; needs assessment through a questionnaire about lecturers and students’ opinion on e-learning; and feasibility study about the readiness of PSU in the implementation of teaching and learning process through e-learning. The result from literature review can be concluded that there are three factors that should be considered in developing web-based learning model, which are: (1) Constructivism; (2) Interactivity; and (3) Student’s Learning Style. The result from need assessment and feasibility study that is conducted in the Electrical Engineering Department and Computer Center of PSU showed that the facilities and infrastructures of PSU are adequate to develop e-learning. Some issues that to be overcome are adding more computers at the campus for students who do not have their own computer and organizing a training for students about the use of e-learning in teaching and learning process.

<p class="IJSSEAAbtract">The research aims at improving the vocabulary mastery of students at Padang’s State Polytechnics for the 2015/2016 academic year by applying a blended learning model. Blended learning is an interactive learning model which combines face-to-face  with web-based learning. Vocabulary is a vital sub-skill in mastering a language and thus a suitable topic for a classroom action research (CAR). . The CAR theory applied is by Kemmis, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">S</span> and McTaggart (2005) and the Blended Learning theory used is by Bersin (2004). The instruments are test, observation, field note and interview. Quantitative data are collected by a test result in which it is used to see how the student’s vocabulary mastery progresses after applying the blended learning model. Qualitative data gathered included observation, field note and interview analyzed descriptively in order to find out the factors affecting student’s vocabulary mastery by implementing blended</p><p> </p><p class="IJSSEAAbtract"> </p>
