An investigation of Taiwan University students' perceptions of online academic help seeking, and their web-based learning self-efficacy

This study was conducted to investigate Taiwan University students' perceptions (including experience, confidence and preference) of online academic help seeking (OAHS) and students' level of web-based learning self-efficacy (WLSE). Two instruments, OAHS questionnaire, consisting of information searching, formal and informal query scales, and WLSE questionnaire, including general and functional scales, were then validated through collecting the responses from 300 university students. Results indicate reciprocal relations between experience, confidence and preference in students' online academic help seeking behaviors. Students' academic help seeking behaviors were related to their general self-efficacy in a web-based course setting. Students' functional WLSE was related to their perceptions of information searching for OAHS. Findings of this study also imply that students' experience of seeking help from informal online channels is prominent when they participate in a web-based course.     

基于多Agent的智能网络教学系统模型研究

随着网络技术的日臻成熟、Internet的迅速延伸及校园网络的普遍建立,网络教育得到了越来越广泛的应用。但目前的网络教学系统普遍存在智能性差、交互手段匮乏、知识结构松散、资源共享度不高等一系列弊端。本文以多Agent技术为基础,提出了一个新的基于多Agent的智能网络教学系统模型,并讨论了系统中各部分的主要功能及实现本系统的部分关键技术。     

论网络环境下学习者的信息素养及其培养

Epistemic beliefs in action: Spontaneous reflections about knowledge and knowing during online information searching and their influence on learning

In the present study it was investigated whether high school students are spontaneously able to reflect epistemologically during online searching for information about a controversial topic. In addition, we examined whether activating epistemic beliefs is related to individual characteristics, such as prior knowledge of the topic and argumentative reasoning skill; also whether learning from the Web is influenced by epistemic beliefs in action and the ability to detect fallacies in arguments. The participants (N = 64) were students of Grade 13, who were asked to think aloud during navigation. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed. Findings reveal that most participants spontaneously activated beliefs about all four dimensions identified in the literature, that is, about the simplicity/complexity, certainty/uncertainty, justification, and source of knowledge, at different levels of sophistication. Most epistemic reflections were about the source of knowledge. Two patterns of contextualized epistemic beliefs emerged and significantly influenced learning from the Web, which was also affected by participants' ability to identify argumentative fallacies.     

基于学习支持服务理论的网络通识课程实施模式

学习支持服务是远程教学两大支柱工程之一,网络通识课程是网络课程与通识教育的整合,具有远程教育的基本特性。研究基于学习支持服务理论,分析了网络通识课程实施要素,构建了网络通识课程实施的结构模型和过程模型。最后,通过网络通识课程实施案例对基于学习支持服务的网络通识课程实施模式进行了检验。
