In the learning field, learner profile should meet the demand of learning and teaching such as learning patterns recognition or performance prediction. Analysis of user's behaviors is the common way to build user profile. Statistics show that online learning activities are incontinuous and diverse. By taking a closer look at the learning activity data, we found back accessing behavior is a frequent activity and reveals the truth of learners' intention. In this study, we make use of Shanghai Open University's learning platform as the data source for our research, adopt machine learning method to find the hidden patterns of learning activities and build the online learner profile. Statistics show that 15.68% of the accessing activities are back accessing. We found three learning patterns with different amount of back accessing behaviors and learning paths. Meanwhile, they relate to many factors including demographics, major type and area where learners join in learning. Through learner profile, we can predict learner's learning pattern which we found in this study. In the conclusion of our study, we suggest that learning path should be taken into consideration of learning engagement.","PeriodicalId":446455,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Education Technology and Computer","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123851786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But to which proportion instructor's inclusion should take in the instructional video still remains unknown. This study examined students' perceived instructor's presence (SPIP) and satisfaction using two types of instructor's inclusion, combining with two learning courses at different complexity levels. Explanatory Factor Analysis was done for students' perceived instructor's presence, three factors were identified, sense of connection, usefulness for clear-clarification, helpfulness for assisting-understanding. MANOVA analysis showed that there was interaction effect for students' perceived satisfaction between course complexity and the type of instructor inclusion. For bigger instructor inclusion, students' perceived instructor presence was higher for more complex learning course. For easier learning course, students' satisfaction was higher for smaller instructor inclusion. This preliminary finding provides hints for instructional video designers and facilitators.","PeriodicalId":446455,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Education Technology and Computer","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129387214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, existing language teaching methods, even using ICT, suffer from issues of scalability and learning effect when deployed in a large-scale spoken language class. This paper proposes to effectively use Learning Management System to improve the scalability, efficiency, and effectiveness of Japanese language and culture education. The course using LMS is practiced and evaluated in an actual large-scale Japanese language class with more than 100 students in an overseas university. The proposed LMS 1) enables individual monitoring and feedback mechanism of each student, 2) visualizes the learning progress and achievement, and 3) provides a comprehensive User Interface to manage online homework and exams. To the best knowledge of the authors, the use of LMS in a large-scale spoken Japanese class has not been well studied. The evaluation results exhibited the load reduction of course management and the various benefit of LMS, which natively digitizes the contents management and can increase the students' engagement in the class.","PeriodicalId":446455,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Education Technology and Computer","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129006162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such automated checks support human markers in assessing students' work and evaluating their own marking; online automated marking; students checking code before submitting it for marking; and question setters evaluating the completeness of questions set. This project developed and evaluated a prototype tool that performs an automated check of a Java program's correctness with respect to a structural specification. Questionnaires and interviews were used to gather feedback on the usefulness of the tool as a marking aid to humans, and on its potential usefulness to students for self-assessment when working on their assignments. Markers were asked to compare the usefulness of structural specification testing as compared to other kinds of support, including syntax error assistance, style checking and functionality testing. Initial results suggest that most markers using the structural specification checking tool found it to be useful, and some reported that it increased their accuracy in marking. Reasons for not using the tool included lack of time and the simplicity of the assignment it was trialled on. Some reservations were expressed about reliance on tools for assessment, both for markers and for students. The need for advice on incorporating tools in marking workflow is suggested.","PeriodicalId":446455,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Education Technology and Computer","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127578763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analyzing the constraints to the use of social media in higher education, findings from this paper may assist instructors to overcome the challenges when using the technology for design learning purposes. This paper presents case studies of six diploma design students who have used a social media platform (SMP) that are specifically built for the community of designers - Behance, to facilitate their design learning process. The findings are drawn upon an in-depth investigation into their uses of the SMP over a period of 14 weeks in a higher education institution in Malaysia. In general, the constraints the students mentioned referred to the technical constraints of the SMP, such as the interface design of the SMP, limited file formats, and the function of the tools provided by the platform. However, the findings also revealed that there are also other factors identified by the participants that affected their choice of using such platforms in their design learning process in the future. The major constraints are: (a) social factors, (b) conflict of learning styles, (c) time to learn and use, (d) use of languages, (e) lack of resources, and (f) security and privacy. This paper describes and discusses each of the constraints.","PeriodicalId":446455,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Education Technology and Computer","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133180131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It does not only contain 3D/4D/5D models, but also the entire management process to increase the performance level of construction life circle. BIM is also an important aspect for future students of wastewater science & engineering (WWSE) specialty to learn. However, the lack of BIM talents has become the biggest limiting factor for the application of the technology. In this paper, three possible ways of BIM teaching reform of water and wastewater science & engineering specialty are discussed: setting up independent BIM courses; embedding BIM related content into existing courses; and combining BIM courses with entrepreneurial research projects for undergraduates. In conclusion, students' professional quality, practical ability, communication and collaboration ability can be enhanced through BIM classroom teaching, experimental teaching and BIM industry expert lectures, and the comprehensive quality of water and wastewater science & engineering specialty graduates can be improved.","PeriodicalId":446455,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Education Technology and Computer","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130608652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
