|
• General objective:
The project aims at carrying out a new model of adult distance education based on a e-learning methodology that combines the conversational agent technology (Virtual Coach) with an ad hoc designed modular learning path. The Virtual Coach will support the participants “individually” within the entire modular e-course. |
|
• Specific objectives:
- To provide an user-friendliness e-learning environment. By using only natural language, the Virtual Coach does not require that the user learns the meaning of icons or functionalities of menus. This user-friendliness allows learners to focus on the contents to learn; besides it also opens the system to people not familiar with PC and learning management systems like, for example, elderly or people who have not used it before. - To customize the learning process on the specific needs of each student. Considering that each learner has his or her own specific work needs, knowledge and skill requirements, learners have the opportunity to create their own personal training programme. - To provide an on line constant presence. The Virtual Coach is always online, available to help the learners, teaching and dialoguing. This availability is particularly relevant for working students who will have the chance and freedom to select in this way the best times for studying and learning. - To stimulate and to preserve a high level of motivation. The Virtual Coach can give emotional support to the learner motivating him/her with friendly chit-chat times. In this sense, it acts as a personal teacher, coach or a peer that can manage also the “blue and boring” moments of the learning process. |
