Learning objects and objectives towards automatic learning construction. (English) Zbl 1137.91327
Summary: This paper presents a method that creates instructionally sound learning experiences by means of learning objects. The method uses a mathematical model, distinguishes two kinds of Learning Objects Properties and proceeds in two major steps: first, the Course Creation is transformed into Set Covering under specific requirements derived from Learning Theories and practice; second, the Alternative Learning Sources are selected by using a similarity measure specially defined for this purpose.
