Description

The author, as a cognitive scientist and linguist, designed "the implementation of ten fundamental prerequisites for a multimedia language authoring system". They span multimediatizing from didactized content, a coherent semiological code, easy-to-use authoring for non-programming teachers, adaptation to cognitive and personality types, metalinguistic deduction-based hints, "automatic segmenting with answering time and segment visualization", personalized access to the solution tied to metacognitive performance, teacher presence for personalized tutoring, and real-time modification of answering times, hints and questions.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

  • Tasks should be appropriate to a maximum number of cognitive learner types (analytic, synthetic, kinesic, etc.), with imposed hints for all and proposed hints only for those who need them.

Constraints

  • Learner's control does not certainly mean no-time limit to answer nor an easy access to the solution; most courseware lets learners read the solution just after a mouse click.

Target Learners

  • Language learners of varied cognitive and personality types

Target Goals

  • Metalinguistic deduction, aural comprehension, and learner self-directed task completion
