Abstract
Distance learning is an area in progress that continues to evolve with further research. Nowadays, MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) correspond to the most developed method of learning. It is a new phenomenon in e-learning which gives learners from around the world free, web-based, open access to content produced by a MOOC team. The phenomenon of MOOCs has increased remarkably by adopting collaborative mechanisms and offering new features promoting communication and exchange between learners. In this area, a big attention is given by researchers, developers and educators to the collaborative learning through Learning Management Systems (LMS), especially through learning environments and social networking. In this paper, we model the collaborative learning process in the context of a MOOC. More precisely, we focus on the evaluation process in the context of MOOCs. The proposed process is modeled with the BPMN notation and implemented via the Bonita's BPMS for future management of this process. This modeling has allowed better understanding of the considered processes and detection of different problems that can occur during an online collaborative and massive learning.
远程学习是一个正在发展的领域,随着进一步的研究而不断发展。如今,大规模在线开放课程(Massive Open Online Courses,简称MOOCs)代表了最发达的学习方式。这是电子学习领域的一种新现象,它为来自世界各地的学习者提供了免费的、基于网络的、开放的、由MOOC团队制作的内容。通过采用协作机制,提供促进学习者之间沟通和交流的新功能,mooc现象显著增加。在这一领域,通过学习管理系统(LMS),特别是通过学习环境和社交网络进行协作学习,受到了研究人员、开发人员和教育工作者的极大关注。在本文中,我们对MOOC背景下的协作学习过程进行了建模。更准确地说,我们关注的是mooc背景下的评估过程。建议的流程使用BPMN符号建模,并通过Bonita的BPMS实现,以便将来对该流程进行管理。这种建模可以更好地理解所考虑的过程,并检测在线协作和大规模学习过程中可能出现的不同问题。
