A Distributed Virtual Collaborative Learning Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
The marketplace for synchronous and asynchronous services and products is becoming very competitive. Although there are over fifty providers of e-learning tools and services many problems still remain. This paper describes the Intelligent Distributed Virtual Training Environment project (INVITE) which addresses some of these. INVITE is a collaborative European project which offers a platform for synchronous e-learning, providing users with the functionality which supports collaborative learning processes through distributed virtual environments. It provides groups with opportunities to immerse themselves in synchronous and distributed work and learning.

متن کاملDisTriB: Distributed Trust Management Model Based on Gossip Learning and Bayesian Networks in Collaborative Computing Systems
The interactions among peers in Peer-to-Peer systems as a distributed collaborative system are based on asynchronous and unreliable communications. Trust is an essential and facilitating component in these interactions specially in such uncertain environments. Various attacks are possible due to large-scale nature and openness of these systems that affects the trust. Peers has not enough inform...

متن کاملSupporting Problem based Learning by a Collaborative Virtual Environment: A Cooperative Hypermedia Approach
Problem based learning promotes engagement in meaningful learning and cooperation among students. When applying PBL in distributed groups distance has to be bridged by means of technology. Collaborative virtual environments (CVE) can help to overcome two crucial problems of PBL, if used in a distributed learning situation: Firstly, learners have problems to understand, interact with, and tailor...
