Description
Summary:碩士 === 淡江大學 === 教育科技學系碩士班 === 94 === The purpose of this study is virtualizing the learning management system “Moodle” and developing a virtual reality digital teaching and learning environment. As the internet and the multimedia systems become increasingly important tools in education, the need to teach within the learning management system rises correspondingly. People could construct themselves in a learning management system by utilizing free open source; however, most of them are text-based which frustrate learner easily. The study suggests “Moodle” is more applicative than other open source systems after analyzing the function which the learning management system should included. Thus, the goal of the study focus on visualizing the learning management system ”Moodle” and restructure its text-based interfaces. Using usability testing methods, interview and observation, experts and students are interviewed to examine what functional elements and interface were used and how they were implemented in relation to the learning management system. The research employed procedures of design, development, and evaluation to modify “Moodle” system and provided following suggestions: 1.To help learner to familiar with the interface, the learning management system should provide real life metaphor. 2.To decrease the buttons and links, “Moodle” system should combine editing mode and navigating mode. 3.To minimize users’ cognitive overload, the study put the functional tool bar and material contents on the same screen.
