Outline What is Virtual Campus? Changing Trend of Learning Style New Learning Process Basic Architecture Components of Virtual Campus Future Work Conclusion
What is Virtual Campus?
Ideal study environment for the ‘life-long’ learners
Providing up-to-date demanding learning materials personal study guide
Students can customize their study in own pace
Delivery the ‘own-paced’ material to the right person in any time.
What’s in Virtual Campus?
Student fully engage in the learning process through
an interactive, dynamic environment study personal scheduled on-line materials accomplish group project and discussion seek help/advice from instructors
What’s in Virtual Campus?
Instructor Delivery the lectures as usual, BUT through
the WWW (Internet) to access students Answer the questions from students in real-
time mode (just like in traditional classroom) OR non-real mode (by email or notice broad)
provide a channel for personal communication with students (collaboration - just like tutorial)
What’s in Virtual Campus?
Learning material provider shorten the distance with students gather the demanding materials
Personal scheduler consultant/counseller for each student re-arrange the order of the course
material according to each student’s pace
Changing Trend of Learning Style
Student-centeredteacher-centered
Students’ monotonously
Lecturing monotonously
Active and collaborative
learning
Passive learning
Educational Focus
Teaching approach
Learning Style
New Learning Process
Customized learning strategy
Components of learning strategy Expected achievement
Choice of individual/group learning Depend on personal style(selection of synchronized/asynchronized mode lecture)
+ Collaboration Learn to solve problem together(social interaction)
+ Customized learning progression Instructor/ scheduler advisedpace (personal pace control)
+ Efficient personal support Establish closer relationshipbetween instructor and students
Delivery the right knowledge to right people in right time
New Learning Process (cont’) Changed behavior of roles
Role Changes Expected behaviorStudent From
passive toactive
state out what they need and want decide which learning mode fit themselves encourage participation
Instructor
Instructor present the material answer the question from the students
about the material relatively less leader character from “chalk-and-talk” role to “guide-on-
the-side” rolePersonalScheduler
analyze the learning pattern of each student give study advice to the student listen to the student personal consultant
New Learning Process (cont’)
Relationship between demand and supply
Consequence Status
Demand >Supply Not fulfill theenthusiasms of learning
Present
Demand =Supply Just in time deliverywhen knowing the
demand
Hard to seek andprepare the
material in time
Demand <Supply Customize switchingresource

Future Works
Building a integrated Virtual Campus with a user-friendly interface;
Implementing the component of customized re-scheduler, by adding pointers to course material and stored in learner’s personal profile;
Providing the status of log-on people, which enables others know who are available;
Hacking the source codes of MWPS and JCE in order to optimal the facilities of Virtual Campus;
Conclusion
Future education and training overcome space, time, and performance
demands increasing geographical distribution continuous updating information effective learning
Interactive, dynamic, active feedback studying

Virtual Campus
Q&A
Thank you
Traditional Learning Environment
teaching materials are planned in a non-dynamic order
instructors/teachers have to select the teaching materials beforehand
After preparation, instructors/teachers present the material to students at the same time and they receive responses and queries from the students
Traditional Learning Environment
a class of small size (20-40 people)
hard to handle all those questions immediately when the course is running. In these situations, most students just sit in class passively, and some may even be “tuned out”
Ideal Educational Environment
Responsive AND Developmental
Providing effective responses to enquiries
Concerning with the student’s overall progress, across all courses and study programmes
Ideal Platform - Internet
Compatible technology platforms reducing the transaction cost minimizing the switching cost
Provides a platform for delivering text materials audio and video streams
Increases distribution efficiency
Major Features in Design Orientation - clarify the next steps User-friendly - information delivery Material - “Just in time” Tracking & feedback - important
elements Establishing & maintaining new study
habits and ways of working explicit advice for the ‘beginning’
