Concevoir des modules e-learning efficaces: l'apport des sciences cognitives. Comment concevoir des modules e-learning qui facilitent les apprentissages? Telle est la question auquel répond l'article "Six principles of Effective e-learning. What works and why" (Six principes du e-learning efficace. Ce qui marche et pourquoi), publié dans le recueil d'articles de "The eLearning Guilds" (Learning solutions. Top articles from the eMagazine's first five years. Pfeiffer.2008). L'intérêt de l'article est qu'il étaye les "principes du e-learning efficace" par les éléments factuels de la recherche en science cognitive conduite par le Professeur Richard E. Mayer, de l'Université de Santa Barbara. Il n'y a pas de "miracle technologique" pour apprendre En préalable, l'auteur de l'article, Ruth Clark, rappelle qu'en dépit de prévisions optimistes, la réalité n'a jamais atteint les espoirs suscités par les différentes innovations technologiques en matière d'apprentissage, du cinéma à internet.

The Art of Anticipation in Story-Based eLearning Design. Our belief: At Vignettes Learning we use stories in eLearning; however, we make them interactive. The emphasis is getting learners involved in the story and not just telling the learners the story.Synthesis. Story-based eLearning design is effective because it creates an environment where learners are compelled to anticipate.

The vagueness of “what’s next” keeps the mind engrossed until the story finds a resolution. Very few people can resist the power of a good story. Image source: Anticipation is a natural human tendency or practice. The Story-based eLearning design is a design that evokes the learner’s anticipation. Interestingly,Thomas Levenson wrote an article in the MIT Technology Review about Rebecca Saxe’s experiments on theory of the Mind (ToM). Rebecca Saxe’s describes how she came about the idea of making a story-based experiment process: “And yet, as William James pointed out, vagueness is not without virtues.

Best Practice Models for e-Learning: Principles The Best Practice Model embeds a number of pedagogic principles for learning that have been selected for e-Learning design: E-Learning is designed in timed chunks that emphasises time on task and expectations E-Learning is assessed using a range of types (self/peer/tutor) and options/choices E-Learning includes a variety of interactions between student/ tutors/ peers/ externals E-Learning is accessible, activity-led, collaborative and designed in phases that support, scaffolds and increases learner independence The model and principles can be summarised as (click for larger image): Separate principles, based on these, have been developed for students, see the Student Models for e-Learning page. Research that supports the 4 principles: Timed chunks Face-to-face teaching is managed in timed chunks and online learning is most easily managed through a series of timed activities.
