Interface Design for Distant Education: Experimenting
نویسنده
چکیده
This research look at environments for distant learning from a perspective of cognitive ergonomy and computer interface design. We will some studies and systems for distant learning and report on usability evaluation that were done with learners. We will then draw from their limitations some principles of a better adapted interaction and a model for a better interface. Finally ExploraGraph a front-end interface to access distant courses on the web will be presented.

Manga University: Web-Based Correction System for Artistic Design Education
In Artistic design education, the teacher instructs each student individually face to face. As a result, it is difficult to share coaching with a third party or to teach distantly. To solve these problems, we have developed Manga University, which is a web-based application to aid artistic design education. It enables distant teaching or shared teaching and provides learning portfolio for colla...

In this paper, we present ImaginationTOOLS, a software which uses mathematical models to generate, analyse and synthesize sound and music. User learns in an imaginary 3D-city basic concepts on mathematical models and music by interacting with pedagogical agents; composes in a laboratory room using a manipulatory agent-like interface; listens to music in an immersive room and creates interactive...
متن کاملSenseMaker: An Information-Exploration Interface Supporting the Contextual Evolution of a User’s Interests
We describe the design, implementation, and pilot study for SenseMaker, an interface for information exploration across heterogeneous sources. We propose supporting the contextdriven evolution of a user’s interests via: (1) an approximation of the current information context as the current collection of accumulated information references, and (2) a unified set of user-centered actions for exami...
متن کاملStudies on One Step Removal of H2S: Aims and Design Criteria for a Pilot Plant
In an attempt ot develop a one step process for the removal of H2S from sour gas, the engineering consideration were dealt with in two steps. In the first step it was attempted to derive the data required for establishing the design criteria for a pilot plant, by experimenting with a small bench scale.
