  1. Workflow Support in CEMT José Valdeni de Lima - Nina Edelweiss Carlos Zeve- Manuele K. Pinheiro Tiago Telecken - Cassiano Maciel - Tharso Borges

  2. Multidisciplinary authoring team E-learning course • teacher(s) • specialist in education • psychologist • web designer • programmers • DB administrators • ... • new learning paradigm • web pages • multimedia resources • e-mail / chat • student log (DB) E-learning authoring • Physical distance between students and teacher • Web • Flexible place / time / learning rhythm

  3. Goal of the Project Design a cooperative environment for e-learning authoring, which allows the cooperation between educators and technical people in order to create material for e-learning courses • Workflow support • Awareness support

  4. E-learning authoring environment • develop a simple and low cost environment • produce e-learning courses with good quality • increase the use of multidisciplinary team to project e-learning courses • emphasis on cooperative work • implement an Open Source solution

  5. E-learning authoring environment supported by workflow and awareness • Workflow support Nina Edelweiss • Awareness support Manuele Kirsch Pinheiro • Adaptative navigation José Valdeni de Lima

  6. Workflow Process Definition Process / activities structure Execution sequence Agents - Roles Conditions Exceptions Applications invocation

  8. Identify course [Task: T1.1] Determine program (course objectives) [Task: T1.2] Determine amount of modules [Task: T1.3] Determine use of body-presence moments [Task: T1.8] Determine communication tools to be made available [Task: T1.6] Determine evaluation tools to be made available [Task: T1.7] Determine independent study tools to be made available [Task: T1.5] Determine bibliography [Task: T1.4] Signal conclusion of the supertask “Register course” [Task: T1.9] Authoring workflow LDL Course Authorship Workflow Supertask: “Register Course”

  9. Use of frequency as performance criterion? Make use of marks as performance criterion? Authoring workflow Use of time as performance criterion? Yes Yes No No Yes No Register non-use of marks as performance criterion [Task: T1.11] Register non-use of time as performance criterion [Task: T1.13] Register non-use of frequency as performance criterion [Task: T1.15] LDL Course Authorship Workflow Supertask: “Determine Criteria for Student Performance Analysis” Determine levels of marks for analysis [Task: T1.10] Determine time paradigms for analysis [Task: T1.12] Determine levels of frequency for analysis [Task: T1.14] 1 1 1 Has at least one performance criterion been determined? Yes No Determine presentation form of the student’s progress track [Task: T1.16] Register non-presentation of student’s progress track [Task: T1.17] 1 Signal conclusion of the supertask “Determine criteria of student performance analysis” [Task: T1.18]

  10. Register course [Fig. 3] Determine criteria for student performance analysis [Fig. 4] Implement module [Fig. 5] Free course for realization [Task: T1.43] E-learning course authoring guided by a workflow Authorship workflow Author E-learning course ||||

  11. Authoring workflow Adapt the authoring workflow for • a team of authors • multidisciplinary team • support cooperative work • use of multimedia tools • add awareness A different authoring workflow for each team composition

  20. Workflow representation in XML Objective • represent the workflow in XML -> web • XML DTD • executed by a workflow engine Elements • one root element - workflow • other elements: • all childs of the root element • one element for each workflow element • elements in any order • begin / end / connector

  21. beginning/end direct connection task supertask multitask K K partial join non-deterministic fork fork total/ join total join interactive conditional fork with mutual exclusion conditional fork XML DTD elements Casati - Ceri • begin • end • connector • task • multitask • supertask • total fork / join • ...
