Abstract
In a learning space, whether it is surrounded by digital tools or not, the way a tutor represents the information is usually in a linear fashion. However, e-learning platforms have already started to support the learner and a new paradigm for learning. In light of these thoughts and concerns, this paper is focused on the education of an architect and examines potential e-learning platforms including BlackBoard, Facebook in the case of an architectural course, EdX, and Khan Academy Knowledge Map based on the types of visual narrative, the aim of the platform, the information visualization quality, and data types. As an output, this study creates a comparative visualization to see and discuss the potentials of the tools for the education of an architect. After the analysis of e-learning platforms, this study concludes that (1) an education model based on a network can help architects to see the big picture, however it also causes data reduction and loss, (2) an education model based on a network allows architects to create their own learning paths and share it with their colleagues, (3) an education model based on a network may be a sustainable platform for architects from different experience levels and enhance the communication between them to support the youngers’ education, 4) an education model based on network decentralizes the process of learning and enriches it through the interaction between other learners, concepts, thoughts, and objects, (5) an education model based on network bridges the gap between what one already knows and what one needs to know to understand the whole picture, (6) an education model based on network gives the opportunity to compare previous years’ feedbacks, concepts, and thought in one medium.
Highlights
In a learning space, whether it is surrounded by digital tools or not, the way a tutor represents the information is usually in a linear fashion
Since knowledge construction is a unique process and everyone has their own way to interpret information in relation to their personal experience, desires, and hopes [10], in a network anyone can see the one's unique learning process, (4) an education model based on network decentralizes the process of learning and enriches it through the interaction between other learners, concepts, thoughts, and objects, (5) an education model based on network bridges the gap between what one already knows and what one needs to know to understand the whole picture, (6) an education model based on network gives the opportunity to compare previous years' feedbacks, concepts, and thought in one medium
To answer : Functionality: Does the visual representation provide all of the functionalities requested by the instructors and identified during the requirements elicitation?
Summary
Whether it is surrounded by digital tools or not, the way a tutor represents the information is usually in a linear fashion. The hacker ethics is a way to discuss the rules of online communities, licenses and sharing this topic is not the main issue of this paper Networked learning integrates both the new movements and is based on existent learning theories as it consists of building blocks from (1) connectivism, highlighting the relevance of connections for learning, (2) social network analysis, pointing out the different types of connections and their implications for learning, and (3) Collaborative Learning Theories, based on constructivism [12]. It is important to examine the features of tools used or to be used in networked learning since network society and its demands have been changing according to fabrication and communication technologies and the culture that they are affecting
