Quality Assurance Strategies for High Quality Learning Objects Karin Lundgren-Cayrol Suzanne Lapointe Gilbert Paquette LICEF, TÉLUQ - UQAM MERLOT CONFERENCE 9 August 2006
Overview • • • Goal and Objectives Learning Ressources (LR) LR Repository Types Evaluation Criteria LR Life-Cycle and Quality Assurance Strategies • Conclusion
Goals and objectives Provide a set of Quality Assurance Strategies based on the Learning Resource Life-Cycle Objectives • Establish viable quality assurance strategies • Provide some pertinent evaluation criteria • Help plan methodological help for repository designers and learning resource authors and users
A Learning Resource Definition Electronic book Video Image Any entity, digital or non-digital, which is intended to be, or may be used for the purpose of learning, education or training . CDROM SCORM Object Learning Design Software
Learning Resource Repository Types • Private repositories: author bibliography and productions, students personal portfolio, course student production showcase A few metadata, quality is in the usefulness of the repository to the participants • Community repository: a university department, a group of professor in the same domain, a research repository Need a larger effort and a high degree of quality insurance, use a domain ontology (specific classification and relation between resources) • Public repository: totally open (Creative commons), limited access or repository – Protect the consumer – Protect the IP through CC or a DRM system.
Evaluation Criteria Dimensions • • • Pedagogical Quality Content clarity and conciseness, instructional strategies aligned to the learning objectives, appropriate media according to target audience, etc… Ergonomy User-friendliness, motivating, visually attractive, built-in accessibility features, etc. . Interoperability, reusability Technical independence and robustness, metadata schema and tagging procedures, conformance to standards
The LORI Evaluation Criteria • • • Content Quality Veracity, accuracy, balanced presentation of ideas, and appropriate level of detail Goal Alignment • Usability Ease of navigation, predictability of the user interface, and the quality of UI help features Alignment among learning goals, activities, assessments, and learner characteristics • Accessibility Adaptive content or feedback driven by differential learner input or learner modeling • Reusability Feedback and Adaptability Motivation Ability to motivate, and stimulate the interest or curiosity of, an identified population of learners Visual Design of visual and auditory information for enhanced learning and efficient mental processing Support for learners with disabilities Ability to port between different courses or learning contexts without modification • Standard conformance Adherence to international standards and specifications
LR Life-Cycle and Quality Strategies Life-cycle of a LR After inclusion Before inclusion Design/ Production During contribution Adaptation/ Reuse/Assignment Deposit and metadata referencing Quality of the process Quality of the object Quality of Metadata
Before Inclusion • Design and Production Strategies – Use a solid and adapted ID method – Identify clearly knowledge and user competencies – Favor pedagogical strategies putting the learner in the center. – Apply evaluation criteria during development and implement at least one learner evaluation cycle – Be informed about Access 4 All production principles – Let (content, pedagogy, media, delivery) specialists use their expertise

During Contribution • Multi-actor expertise for metadata – Content Expert / Author • Title, LR language, key words, description, type, version, contributors, intended end user, learning context • Text mining algorithms can help – Library technician • Version, classification, rights, relations metadata • Overall respect of the standard used – Computer Technicians • Format, size, required conditions, Installation Remarks, meta-metadata, record language • Can be automated • In general, reduce form-filling: use wizards, smart automatic or semi-automatic computer agents
During Contribution • Demand Membership for contributors: responsability and motivation; make contributors visible • Make sure that the author provides the following infos: – – Degree of Pedagogical Reusability Content quality Interface quality How it might be an efficient learning or teaching tool
Completeness or Usability
After Inclusion in the Repository • • • Retrieval quality, maintenance should be planned at inclusion Provide peer reviews and evaluations from actual users/reusers. Advertise innovative and high quality resources Provide recommendations to authors for improvements Propose search options: metadata, classification, free text etc.
