Abstract:Since mid 2000 in the Netherlands full teacher qualification can be obtained in real life training trajectories 'on the job', by means of a tri-partite contract between a teacher (trainee), the school where the teacher/trainee will be working/learning and a teacher training institute. The Ruud de Moor Centre (RdMC, Open University of the Netherlands) was established to support these trajectories on the job, especially by means of ICT based distance learning and support. Like all real life learners these teacher trainees form a heterogeneous group, which requires a highly tailored approach for learning and support. Such a tailored approach not only has to take into account personal characteristics of the trainees, but also the working/learning contexts that differ from school to school. Tailoring includes (but is not limited to) personalisation and contextualisation of content delivery, adapting presentation modes and individualising user support. This imposes severe constraints on the organisation and management of the learning materials and on delivery modes. Adequate metadata, conceptual structures for organisation and processing of knowledge, proper search tools and engines for information retrieval are requested. The RdMC is developing a flexible and modular system architecture as well as a data model, with emphasis on didactic potency, enabling design and delivery of tailored learning and learner support on the job.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
