Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Erasmus Plus Project Better e-Learning for All aims at contributing to the reduction of the gap between the potential value of E-learning and the quality of design of online courses. Departing from research findings in dropout, motivation and retention factors, a conceptual approach to course design was developed and applied to the Better-e MOODLE environment. Better-e platform is designed to support teachers and trainers to overcome uncertainties about pedagogical choices, providing a Competence- oriented decision support environment and a selection of platform features customized to provide easiness of use, to support self-regulation, and to reduce the risks of incurring in common errors of course design that could have a negative impact on retention.
