Description

IDLM and Drewlite are educational software platforms that support interactive exercises, multimedia explanations, knowledge mapping, communication, collaboration, and online argumentation.

Components

  • IDLM platform and Drewlite CSCL platform with graphical knowledge maps: Two platforms carried the study's two learning tasks. The IDLM platform 'comprised a sequence of interactive exercises alternated with explanatory information such as texts, interactive diagrams, animations, video clips and schemes,' with drag-and-drop exercises, multiple choice questions, and detailed feedback on incorrect and correct answers. The CSCL platform Drewlite, a simplified version of Drew developed within the Scale project, 'comprises different tools for communication, collaboration, and argumentation such as chat, graph, text board, view board, and multi modules.' Its graph module let students build box-and-arrow knowledge maps with comment fields for tests 1 and 2, and its chat module supported the online discussion condition. (Noroozi et al. (2012))
