Abstract

E-learning and web-based learning are intended to support learners. It is still difficult, however, for learners to identify and choose study materials that match their current and desired abilities. In addition, learners may fail to understand the relationships between the knowledge they seek. Most e-learning systems in Thailand do not provide the information needed to assist learners and avoid these difficulties. This research proposes pedagogically-informed knowledge structures and associated applications, including a tool for designing and building such structures, a tool for navigating the structures for particular purposes (e.g., identifying knowledge missing from learners’ existing knowledge), and a tool for recommending appropriate materials. Experimental studies will be conducted to validate the design of the knowledge structures and the methods for their construction, and to evaluate the effectiveness of the tools. Learners will be expected to gain significantly higher levels of achievement by using the knowledge structures and associated tools proposed in this research, and educational communities in Thailand will be able to share the knowledge structures and use the tools to support learners.
