摘要:
A learning system may be used to dynamically create courses tailored to the needs of a learner. In one implementation, the learning system may dynamically create, assemble, and/or build new temporary courses from the structural elements of an existing course according to the specific needs of a learner. The learner's needs may be expressed using a budget and other criteria provided by the learner. Using the budget and criteria, the learning system may identify existing structural elements that may be used to assemble a dynamic course. After the course is assembled, the course may be temporarily stored and presented to the learner using the learning station.

This disclosure generally describes systems, methods, and software involving user-managed learning strategies. One method for implementing a user-managed learning strategy comprises invoking a strategy template for a learning unit, with the strategy template comprising a plurality of strategy items and the learning unit represented by a plurality of learning items. At least a portion of a learning strategy is automatically identified based on the strategy template and the learning unit. The method further includes providing at least one navigation option to a learner, via a graphical user interface, based on the identified portion of the learning strategy.

A learning system, method, and data structure provides collaborative activities between learners. The system includes an interface to receive a learning strategy selected by a learner. A content management system stores one or more structural elements associated with a course. A learning management system determines the learning content and the one or more structural elements to present to the learner based on the selected learning strategy.

A method, performed by a processing device, for use in an electronic learning system that stores information as learning objects, includes designating a target learning object as a project object, and storing dependency data in the project object. The dependency data identifies at least a version of a first object that depends directly from the project object, and a version of a second object that depends indirectly from the project object.

A method for performing a modularization of an arbitrary structured hypertext with a physical structure and an organizational structure description is disclosed. The hypertext is decomposed into a set of separate modules with specific definable boundaries based on both, the physical structure and the organizational structure description, each module of the set of modules is computed methodically and gradually with respect to coaction with the other modules until forming a completed functional unit reusable and invocable separately. Furthermore, a corresponding hypertext, a module, a computer system, a computer program product and a computer program are disclosed.
摘要:
A learning system, method, and data structure provides collaborative activities between learners. The system includes an interface to receive a learning strategy selected by a learner. A content management system stores content and one or more collaboration elements associated with a course. A learning management system determines the learning content and the one or more collaboration elements to present to the learner based on the selected learning strategy. The learner participates using the collaboration element at a time of the learner's choosing while taking the course. The collaboration activity may be based on one or more collaboration scenarios including a brainstorming activity, a cooperative text processing activity, an explanation discourse activity, an answer-to-tutor activity, and a pro-contra dispute. The collaboration element may be provided as an intentional point of collaboration.
摘要:
The present invention refers to a method for performing a multidimensional categorization of a document repository (1) used for storing objects in category hierarchies within a computer system, wherein a mapping of objects being stored in a source category hierarchy (2) to target objects at target locations of a target category hierarchy (3) is associated with a source qualifier (4) and a target qualifier (5), the source qualifier (4) describing the objects to be mapped, the target qualifier (5) describing the target category hierarchy and characteristics of the target objects. The mapping is performed according to a mapping expression by computing the objects of the source category hierarchy (2) which match with the source qualifier (4), deriving from such successfully computed objects Further associated characteristics, specifying the target objects as virtual mapping objects at the target locations in the target category hierarchy (3) as specified by the target qualifier (5) and in accord with the characteristics derived from the successfully computed objects, and mapping the computed objects of the source category hierarchy (2) to the respective virtual mapping objects in the target category hierarchy (3). Furthermore, the invention also refers to an appropriate mapping algorithm, an appropriate computer system, a computer program and a computer program product.
摘要:
An embodiment includes a method that includes receiving, into a cache server, from a client, a request for content from a content server. The request for content includes one or more fields. The method also includes mapping the request for content into a new request for content that is without the one or more fields. The method includes performing a lookup into a cache list of the cache server based on the new request for content.

The description relates to the field of automatically predicting the performance characteristics of a service-oriented architecture (SOA). The prediction is made by setting up a model of the service-oriented architecture, generating a queue of services to be executed, simulating execution of the services by utilizing the model while processing the queue, and determining the performance characteristics from data obtained from the simulation.
