Smart-Home in a Box (SHiB) is a ubiquitous system that intends to improve older adults’ life quality. SHiB requires self-installation before use. Our previous study found that it is not easy for seniors to install SHiB correctly. SHiB CBLE is a computer-based learning environment that is designed to help individuals install a SHiB kit. This article presents an experiment examining how smart home sensor installation was affected by knowledge gained from two methods, SHiB CBLE, and a written document. Results show that participants who were trained by the CBLE took significantly (p<0.05) less time in the installation session than those in the control group. The accuracy rate of SHiB kit installation is 78% for the group trained by the CBLE and 77% for the control group. Participants trained by the CBLE showed significantly (p<0.01) higher confidence in the actual installation than those in the control group. These results suggest that having a training before the actual installation will help installers avoid unnecessary work, shorten the installation time, and increase installers’ confidence.

This study investigated the effects of comprehension-directed and memory-directed computer-based learning-strategy training on the achievement of learning objectives. The subjects were sixty undergraduate students enrolled in an introductory computing course. Learners completed a tutorial about microcomputer components on the first day of the study. Two treatment groups completed a strategy-training tutorial focusing on comprehension or memory. The control group received extra time on the microcomputer-components tutorial and no strategy training. One week later, all subjects completed two separately administered tests including cued recall and recognition. The strategy training effects were significant on the fifty-item cued recall test, however, group mean scores were at or below 50 percent. Group mean scores on a recognition text suggested that comprehension-directed training was the most effective. All treatment group mean scores were significantly higher than the control group. The findings of this study provide a basis for further research into the design of computer-based learning-strategy training and assessment.

This study tested the relative efficiency of teaching material presented in the worked examples form of instruction compared to problem-solving exercises. Tests were also conducted to determine if subjects' prior exposure to accounting instruction affects results. Teaching materials were developed in Computer-Based Learning (CBL) format for one introductory accounting topic completed by 93 subjects. Response measures included test performance, learning effort, and instructional efficiency consisting of the combined measured performance and learning effort. The study results indicate that worked examples were more efficient than problem-solving exercises for students with no prior knowledge of accounting, while being equally efficient for those with prior knowledge.

Abstract: The Effectiveness of Allan B. Bluman’s Learning Model in the Improvement of Students’ Understanding of Mathematical Concepts. Understanding ma- thematical concepts is one of the important academic aspects. This study aims to improve students’ skills in connecting, communicating and applying mathematical concepts to solve mathematical problems in everyday life. This was an experimental study using the pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 77 students. The control group learned through the expository method, whereas the experimental group learned through a step by step approach using an interactive multimedia application program of Allan G. Bluman’s model. The results showed that the gain of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group. It can be concluded that the computer-based learning based on Allan G. Bluman’s model enhances the understanding of mathematical concepts. Keywords: mathematical concepts, academic aspect, step by step approach, interactive multimedia, Allan G. Bluman’s model

The purpose of this study was to examine differences in learning achievement, flow, and overall cognitive load between digital game-based learning (DGBL) and traditional computer-based learning (CBL). This study was conducted with 103 Taiwan college students: 50 college students in the experimental group used DGBL; 53 students in the control group used CBL. Results show the DGBL participants displayed significantly better learning achievement, flow, and lower cognitive load compared to the CBL participants. Learning achievement and flow exhibit a positive correlation, while negatively correlating with overall cognitive load. These results align with the existing research concepts of flow theory, cognitive theory of multimedia learning, and cognitive load theory.

Zusammenfassung. Der vorliegende Beitrag entwickelt auf der Basis von pädagogischen Überlegungen und lernpsychologischen Forschungsergebnissen zur computerunterstützten Wissensvermittlung eine Konzeptualisierung von E-Learning-Systemen und deren von konsequentem Qualitätsmanagement begleitete Umsetzung. Die vorgestellte theoriegeleitete Vorgehensweise wird anhand der Entwicklung und Realisierung des internetgestützten Lernsystems “CLIC Computer-based Learning: Introduction to Communications“ veranschaulicht, das an der Universität Erfurt erarbeitet wird. Der Aufsatz befasst sich sowohl mit der Koordination auf der Ebene der Produktion (Didaktik, Inhalt, Technik) als auch auf der Ebene der Rezeption (Lern- und Kommunikationsformen, Lernorganisation). Die explorativ angelegte Evaluation des ersten Einsatzes von CLIC belegt ein weitgehend gelungenes Konzept und Qualitätsmanagement. Vorgestellt werden ausgewählte Evaluationsergebnisse zur Koordination und Organisation der Wissensvermittlung sowie des sozialen Kontaktes zwischen Studierenden und Dozierenden. Anhand von drei in der Evaluation empirisch ermittelten E-Learning-Typen werden Probleme und Potenziale beim E-Learning aufgezeigt und Schlussfolgerungen für die koordinierende Gestaltung von E-Learning-Systemen gezogen.
