  2. First dimension: distance teaching We started by postulating that the universe of instruction consisted of two families of teaching behaviors, which we referred to as “contiguos teching” and “distance teaching”. Second dimension: learner autonomy Indipendent study Michael G. Moore University of Wisconsin

  4. Le generazioni della FAD I corrispondenzaII radio, tv, computer (CBT)III rete (Internet), web-db (WBT)IV piattaforme e-learning (ILS, LMS) L’integrazione tecnologica e oltre

  5. La FAD e la pmi Di fatto la formazione a distanza era presentata, e si presentava, come sostitutiva di metodologie didattiche e di un modo di apprendere completamente basato sull’interazione in presenza. Sembrava emergere una supremazia del “virtuale” sul reale che avrebbe cambiato radicalmente non soltanto il nostro modo di insegnare e apprendere, ma anche il nostro modo di lavorare (telelavoro), …. e il mondo di produrre ricchezza delle aziende.

  6. La FAD e la pmi “l’incapacità della piccola e media impresa di garantire percorsi formativi adeguati alle proprie figure professionali per il mantenimento e la riqualificazione delle profili di competenza. La piccola e media impresa si dimostra spesso poco interessata alle attività formative perché troppo impegnata nel rispondere alle continue sfide di mercato e nell’evitare rallentamenti della propria attività produttiva. La possibilità per profili professionali omogenei di trovare nella rete telematica dei luoghi d’incontro e condivisione può rappresentare l’occasione per mantenere aggiornato il proprio bagaglio di competenze senza per questo impattare sul bilancio aziendale.”

  7. La FAD e la pmi la necessità di rafforzare l’employability dei professionals che, per garantirsi delle future chance di impiego in un mercato del lavoro che premia chi è dotato di maggiori competenze, si trovano a fronteggiare in prima persona l’onere di una formazione continua e personalizzata. i limiti dell’offerta formativa che non è in grado di rispondere a prezzi sostenibili dalla domanda alle pressanti richieste di una formazione. (Luca De Pietro ISFOL) Gestire la complessità dei sistemi di e-learning, ovvero, l’-e-learning come sistema complesso. (Guglielmo Trentin, CNR, Trento)

  8. Nel primo semestre del 2004 si contano nel mondo circa 285 milioni di host e una crescita del 50% registrata nell’ultimo anno. L’Italia è al terzo posto con 7,5 milioni di host, dopo USA e Giappone.

During the design phase, before the Matrix 3 platform implemetation, studies (Technology, Functionality, Standards and Infrastructure) have been done. Matrix [ED-Media 2002,], Matrix 2, E-LEARN 2003, Matrix 3 ED-Media 2004 – 2005 and e-Learning EXPO 2004 Unife-CARID].An new Matrix 3 data model, user-oriented, has been defined.

  18. MATRIX 3 - e-Learning Application Scenario The aimof the M3 Project is to reach a conceptual validation of methodologies, platforms and technologies supporting the integration, validation and programming, over a distributed environment, of complex systems composed of heterogeneous and distributed virtual courses (VC). e-learning core system Student - Teacher

  19. MATRIX 3 • Matrix 3 has a dynamic web site system, AWM, finalised to the functional aspects of a e-learning platform. • It manages data, information and multimedia to provide the integration between Web and distributed databases by means of a set of functional modules. • It is based on a user-friendly web interface.

  20. MATRIX 3 USER IDENTIFICATION & CLASSIFICATION • User classes identification and classification • User working-groups management for requirements definition and usability testing • User technical resources identification

  21. MATRIX 3USER IDENTIFICATION & CLASSIFICATION • User classes • Generic user and visitor (randomly access to the system); • Professional user (frequently access to course, information and services. Generally students/teachers and tutors); • Experienced user (frequently access to data and services, detailed exploration of data). Staff user belongs to this category.

  22. MATRIX 3USER CLASSIFICATION CRITERIA • Frequency of use • Computer familiarity • Computer software expertise • User mental abilities • User physical abilities and skill

  23. MATRIX 3 - USER REQUIREMENTS • User requirements • General requirements (access to the system through the Web, use of the Net to study, easy to use, efficency, effectiveness , robustness, modularity, portability, etc.); • Functional requirements (use of mouse, online authoring system, access to management and enquiry functions, real-time and asinchronous communications, dynamic web page editor and multimedia result display, etc.); • Technical requirements (active environment, networks, multi-language, integration with distributed multimedia database).
