Impact of LT Standards

• Success example of standards
• RFC Internet specifications
• Supports rapid expansion of low-cost and robust
  information network system
• Quantity changes quality
• Changes of the framework
• Open technology standards changes the framework
• All in one concept to component-based concept
• More specialized, cost-effective solution

Standards for Collaborative Learning
Learners solve an assignment posted by a
coach via discussions and gain problem solving
skills.
Learner B
(6) Read article posted by B
(5) I think its enough to certify congruence
between ?ABC and ?CDA
Learner C
(7) ?ABC is not congruent with ?CDA
Learner D


Learner A
(8) Any questions? (as you have no prompting)
Collaborative Workplace
Learning Resources

Intelligent agent
(4) Draw an additional line CD onto the
collaborative workplace
(10) All learners completed Assignment. Next
please.
Intelligent agent
Communication tool
(3) question to new logged-on user
(1) Assignment circular angle and
triangle similarity
(2) Certify ?ABC?DEC
(9) Discussion monitoring

Summary

• World-wide movements toward LT standards
• LT standards powers/enriches emerging education
  framework
• Standards provides more abstract and
  human-centered view of computer technology
• Japanese contribution required!!
• Standards are not given but to be developed
