ASU-Online, 3 Years of Digital Design in the Desert: Implementing and facilitating Web Based Instruction at Arizona State University, an Experiential Account William M. Bercu, M.Ed. College of Extended Education Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona, USA bercu@asu.edu, ASUonline: http://asuonline.asu.edu ASUOnline is a central course development and management system providing online courses for fourteen academic colleges on three urban campuses. Since our first Internet course, spring 1996, ASUOnline has helped faculty produce and deliver 95 university courses. There are sixty courses planned for Summer and Fall 1999 at Arizona State University. This presentation will provide an experiential account of successes and challenges that have occurred over the three years that Distance Learning Technology (DLT): College of Extended Education has offered webbased instruction. Included will be issues concerning the design, delivery and service of Internet courses from both the faculty/student perspective and the administrative challenges to meet their needs.
Global Educational Multimedia Server – GEM Clive Best, Philip Shiels, Monica de Paola JRC, Ispra, European Commission http://gem.jrc.it System Outline Abstract: GEM is the acronym for Global Educational Multimedia Server. It is a project initiated by the Multimedia Education Taskforce of the European Commission. The concept of GEM is to develop a European scale clearing house of information, products and services in the domain of emerging multimedia technology applied to education and training. The vision of a new educational model based on high speed networks, multimedia content and distance learning is already being pursued by many teaching institutions and companies. The difficulty facing suppliers and users of such systems is to find existing services, planned services and general information. This need is likely to increase greatly in the future as the market begins to expand. One of the needs will be to help teachers and potential students to discover each other and to put providers and customers in touch. GEM is conceived as a dynamic database accessible through the Web, whose information and data content are submitted and updated by the suppliers, teachers and to some extent students. It aims to be a focal point in Europe for locating information and services in this growing domain. GEM allows any Internet user to search for courses, educational products and educational events either through simple free text or classified by thematic keywords and media types. However GEM is more than an ordinary Web site. Users and organisations, students and teachers, providers and customers can register on the system. After registering, users can “advertise” products if they are providers or requests for services if they are users. Similarly Jobs, conferences notices and courses can be announced. Each item of information entered by a user can be modified on-line by that user. There will soon be discussion groups and Fora provided with the system. It is possible to upload multimedia content (images, audio and video) from the users PC to the database. GEM will also be able to host full interactive courses in a general framework. A database design and Web interface will be implemented that can allow for a general course framework. This framework allows students to register for courses and teachers to monitor progress. At this stage the system is envisaged as a solution for small organisations without the facilities to run their own distance learning courses, but will be able to use GEM to host them. Future developments envisage a federation of servers coupled through GEM. GEM today is a dynamic database interfaced to the Internet. Users can interface to GEM using a standard Web browser. Users search the database, submit information and update their entries in the database. Results of user interaction are Web pages generated on the fly, shown schematically here as a presentation layer. The system has an object design layer , where all components of the system are defined in object classes. The database will be a freeware RDBMS and this interfaces through an SQL API layer. The system can be customised by user access eg. Language preferences. This is shown schematically here as User racking. The interface of the system to the http server is through the Common Gateway Interface or CGI. The figure shows a simple schematic overview of GEM and how it will be interfaced to the network.
