Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a new concept of training and learning systems that are based on the Web and knowledge mining technologies. Knowledge mining is the process of deriving hidden and potentially useful information from the current and archival databases. Derived knowledge can possibly be in various forms of patterns, such as data summarization and relationships among data instances. We propose the design of a Web-based training and learning system that incorporates knowledge management modules to induce knowledge and manage stored knowledge objects. This new module is intended to supplement the content management and the learning management modules that exist in most Web-based learning systems. Our proposed architecture of learning environments will enable the convergence of e-learning with the knowledge management. A repository containing learner-related materials is a valuable source of knowledge to support personalization information for independent learners. The contribution of our work is the design of a knowledge-oriented system to provide an integrated, flexible, and efficient platform for intelligent learning environment suitable for both vocational training and higher educational systems.
Highlights
During the last few years, we have witnessed an important shift in educational systems
The adoption of automatic learning ability from the field of knowledge mining and the availability of the World Wide Web have resulted in state of the art Web-based intelligent learning environments
The emergence of the World Wide Web has resulted in substantial change in both the content representation and the delivery mechanism
Summary
During the last few years, we have witnessed an important shift in educational systems. Improvements in hardware and communication technology, such as mobile microprocessors and wireless communication, have evolved learning environments into mobile and distributed platforms. Such information infrastructures provide learners with remote access to experts and distributed resources. The term environment in this context refers to a suite of computer programs that facilitates electronic learning, known as e-learning, and distance education. These facilities include course creation and delivery, learning tracking and assessment, enrollment, and administration.
