T-learning vs. e-learning: advantages

Need to have a computerThere is at least one TV in nearly

100% of households in developed

countriesTechnologically

literate

TV is easy to use

e-learning t-learning

IDTV can be reached almost by everybody

Internet is not expected

to penetrate beyond 70%

T-learning demands different solutions (I)

Set-Top Box vs. computer

Lower computing powerLimited user interaction capabilities

Passive attitude of TV viewersTV is seen as an entertainment medium

TV viewers vs. computer users

Lower resolutionTV is watched from a higher distance

TV screen vs. computer screen

Lighter applications

Simple user interfaceswith big visual elements

Combine education and entertainment

Broadcasting (unidirectional)

TV transmisionClient-server architectureis not suitable

T-learning demands different solutions (II)

ATLAS: Architecture for T-Learning Applications and Services

Principles of ATLAS

• Promote reusability:– Unifying the platform: MHP

• Peculiarities: Latencies, synchronising with streaming media, low computational demands, etc.

– Unifying the courses: SCORM

• Media-driven strategies– Mainly, audiovisual material– Contextual binding:

• Identifiers linked to pieces of information

• Defined differently for the different types of content– Timestamps in fragments of audio and video– Regions in images– Anchors in a text– Options in menus, etc.
