Subclaims¶

q2 i? Participants with no prior IMS LD knowledge held a positive opinion of using a spreadsheet to manage questionnaire data (Q3.d, 3.88 out of 5) (RQ5). → Luis de-la-Fuente-Valentín 2011 q2 i? Participants did not clearly distinguish the course flow manager from the spreadsheet tool, perceiving the spreadsheet as internal to the course. → Luis de-la-Fuente-Valentín 2011

Evidence¶

Luis de-la-Fuente-Valentín 2011¶

Luis de-la-Fuente-Valentín, Abelardo Pardo, Carlos Delgado Kloos. (2011). Generic service integration in adaptive learning experiences using IMS learning design. Computers & Education. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compedu.2010.12.007

q2 · i? · design · r2

Questionnaire and group-discussion data from the workshop case study. Table 6 reports Q3.c at 3.19 and Q3.d at 3.88 out of 5; comments included "It's easy to analyse the received data" and storing registers so teachers can view students' progress. The authors contrast this with prior studies where IMS LD condition authoring was considered error prone.

"With no previous knowledge of the specification and no experience using IMS LD conditions, course participants had a positive opinion about the use of the spreadsheet."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• The complexity of course authoring, not comprehension or training, is the most significant obstacle to IMS LD adoption — related
• A pilot with 22 teachers showed GSI-shaped Units of Learning can be reused across independent course instances at reasonable deployment cost — related
• Teachers rated the GSI example comprehensible, but perceived the difficulty of creating adaptive material as significantly higher after attempting authoring — related
