![Page 3: A Teacher’s Tool for Lesson Planning (TuLiP) Design of a tool for the rapid development of educational and instructional environments. R. Gabrielle Reed.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e405503460f94b30c5c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Call for Research to Support the Use of Technology in Education In “e-learning: Putting a World Class Education
at the Fingertips of All Students”, research in engineering and technology is mandated to provide tools for teachers to meet the “National Technology Goals” (US DEd, 2000)
![Page 4: A Teacher’s Tool for Lesson Planning (TuLiP) Design of a tool for the rapid development of educational and instructional environments. R. Gabrielle Reed.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e405503460f94b30c5c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Observations:
Tools designed for educational uses lag behind applications for e-commerce.
Tools can be developed that capitalize on advances in e-commerce.

Teacher’s Dilemma A teacher may spend up to 20% of the time
planning Less than10% of teachers use technology
for planning (NCES 2001) Barriers to the use of technology, cited by
teachers (NASA 1998)– time to learn – complexity of the software– lack of training – lack of support
![Page 13: A Teacher’s Tool for Lesson Planning (TuLiP) Design of a tool for the rapid development of educational and instructional environments. R. Gabrielle Reed.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e405503460f94b30c5c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

What If Teachers Could Use XML? Use an XML language that uses educational
terminology. Fill in the educational content. Use predefined XSL pages to display the
plan content in a variety of formats. Upload XML file to a designated location to
be used as the source of the XSL transformations.
![Page 21: A Teacher’s Tool for Lesson Planning (TuLiP) Design of a tool for the rapid development of educational and instructional environments. R. Gabrielle Reed.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e405503460f94b30c5c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Perceived Costs of Predefined Styles Customization of the use forms are restricted to the
defined structure of the elements. A compliant template form uses existing style templates.
Foremost importance is the use of research based style and presentation methods to facilitate information distribution.
Teachers have to give up the desire to “publish”- to “control the way things look”. The functionality to customize a product is a cause of increased complexity of a tool.
To offset this, the style must be a widely accepted design
![Page 22: A Teacher’s Tool for Lesson Planning (TuLiP) Design of a tool for the rapid development of educational and instructional environments. R. Gabrielle Reed.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e405503460f94b30c5c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How Many Different Products Are Needed? The content in one Lesson Plan may be
transformed to meet various needs:– Administrative curriculum requirements– Evaluation of technology effectiveness– Information for parents– Homework for children– Information in alternative modes for lesson or
review– Instructional plan– Instructional web environment
![Page 23: A Teacher’s Tool for Lesson Planning (TuLiP) Design of a tool for the rapid development of educational and instructional environments. R. Gabrielle Reed.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56649e405503460f94b30c5c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Effectiveness of Structured Content
The "structured" approach is seen to have the following benefits:– allows the same courses to be delivered across multiple media and
delivery environments (Print, WWW, CD-ROM) – supports a consistent instructional design and development process – provides a definitive view, including meta-data, of the components of well
constructed educational resources responsive to different learner profiles – provides opportunities for learners to approach the course material
through multiple paths or views – facilitates the re-purposing and updating of content – conforms to Information Technology standards to ensure portability and
long-term use” Paille, G., Norman, S., Klassen, P. and Maxwell, J. "The effect of
using structured documents (SGML) in instructional design“ source: http://naweb.unb.ca/proceedings/1999/paille/paille.html

Cocoon2
Uses an architecture that allows dynamic generation of webpages: a script describes the servlets, sources and transformation information needed to process a certain request.
A generator converts the text input into the XML using the Simple API for XML (SAX) creating events, which are then processed and transformed according to XSL script to serialize the output.

XML Markup Languages
Data Type Definitions (DTDs) define the Elements and Attributes to be used in the files.
Modularization and Namespace DTDs are used to assure uniqueness of element names.

What Are XML’s Advantages?
Plan is coded with semantic elements.
Reusable translation instructions are used to filter, format and display information for each product.
XML content can be catalogued and searched.
Plan can be designed with reusable parts.
Translation instructions are used for instructional control and sequencing.
Instructor has more instructional control.

Document Type Definition (DTD)
A DTD is a file (or several files to be used together), written in XML, which contains a formal definition of a particular type of document. It sets out what names can be used for element types, where they may occur, and how they all fit together. For example, if you want a document type to be able to describe <List>s which contain <Item>s, part of your DTD would contain something like
<!ELEMENT List (Item)+> <!ELEMENT Item (#PCDATA)>
This fragment defines a list as an element type containing one or more items (using the plus sign), and items as element types containing just text. XML is the formal specification language which processors read to automatically parse the DTD and then use that information to identify where every element type comes and how each relates to the other, so that stylesheets, navigators, browsers, search engines, databases, printing routines, and other applications can be used. The above fragment lets you create lists which get stored as:
<List><Item>Chocolate</Item><Item>Music</Item><Item>Surfing</Item></List>
How the list appears in print or on the screen depends on your stylesheet: you do not normally need to put anything in the XML to affect formatting in the way that had to be done with HTML before stylesheets.
In effect, a DTD provides applications with advance notice of what names and structures can be used in a particular document type.
Using a DTD means you can be certain that all documents which belong to a particular type will be constructed and named in a conformant manner.

Definitions:
Learning Objects: Educational materials in various formats Repository: Location for storage and retrieval of Learning
Objects, Plans and Teacher Materials Reusability: The object can be easily used or incorporated
into an existing learning environment. Sharability: Sufficient information is provided for
confirmation of validity and allows use. Orthogonality: Components are independent of others. Completeness: The educational intent of one basic
objective is contained in one object. MetaData: Information stored to describe an object

Examples of Learning Objects Uses(LOs) Instructional Architect (IA) currently uses
the LO’s stored in SMETE and other repositories to produce web pages. (reusabiltiy.org)
Learning Objects, however, are packaged with logic, format and content that is difficult to modify and limits its reuse.

IEEE Learning Object (LO) Initiatives Standardize the metadata associated with
LO’s– LOs are limited to objects containing
educational content.– LOs can be readily shared and reused in whole,
due to the metadata markup language used in describing the content.

Dublin Core Metadata Element Set (The Dublin Core) “a 15 element metadata set that is primarily intended to aid resource
discovery on the Web … The metadata elements fall into three groups which roughly indicate
the class or scope of information stored in them: 1. elements related mainly to the Content of the resource
• Title, Subject, Description, Type, Source, Relation, Coverage, 2. elements related mainly to the resource when viewed as Intellectual
Property • Creator, Publisher, Contributor, Rights
3. elements related mainly to the Instantiation of the resource • Date, Format, Identifier, Language.”

SCORM
"The SCORM spec is going to be successful almost by default, but unless all e-learning specifications turn the focus from infrastructure to pedagogical soundness, they are in danger of becoming instructionally irrelevant." So says Thor Anderson, director of developer support at the Instructional Management System Global Learning Consortium (IMS) in Burlington, Mass.

Portals
An adaptive environment:– Displays information of interest, which is
gathered and made available for use.• National, Core and State Curriculum Requirements
• Planning Tools and Teacher Resources
– Provides a facility for sharing, using a Repository
– Enables collaboration in Lesson Planning
