Extending Record and Playback Technologies to Support Cooperative Learning
We have long-term experience with developing and employing multimedia
materials for on-campus and distance education. We also are assessing the
efficacy of cooperative learning where groups of learners explore, with
guidance from an instructor, the learning environment and construct models of
meaning based on their shared learning experiences. Our core technologies
capture and store classroom events, but are record-and-playback technologies
focused on delivering content to individual learners. We describe an extension
of our technology, Cooperative Learning in MANIC (CLIMANIC), which allows
groups of learners and teachers to collaborate and communicate. We describe our
current assessment of CLIMANIC and future plans for more extensive evaluation
