| description | Learning object (LO) is a reusable unit of instruction for teaching typically in e-learning
environment or any entity, digital, non digital which can be used, reused or referenced during
technology supported learning. The idea of LO has already emerged as early as in the nineties,
where the concept was then concerned about storing digital learning material into the database.
However due to the exponential growth of the World Wide Web, this concept re-emerges and are
presently being further developed to generate knowledge and insight in online storing and
retrieving LO. Nevertheless, despite being an educational agenda and numerous works
performed by researchers related to LO, these researches are less than satisfying. There remains
a vacuum in identifying the structure of LO, the pedagogical elements in LO metadata and
enhancement of reusability features of LO. In addition there is also problem in obtaining the solid
definition of LO despite several attempts made to identify the definition and view of LO. These
attempts mainly derived definitions that are broad in meaning and have not defined a complete
definition backed with well founded theoretical knowledge. As such it is desirable, to achieve and
produce a comprehensive definition of LO based on theoretical knowledge and utilised the
definition to procure the LO conceptual structure or model and its types. Therefore this paper will
address the development of LO model and its components based on theoretical grounds. In
addition, a working prototype system (MELOR) is also described as a proof-of-concept to
demonstrate the credibility of the LO model obtained. The model derived is belief to be of use as
a guideline to provide a better aspect of what a learning object is and enhance LO reusability
features and pedagogical aspects. As such it would lead to greater usage of LO in the future and
provide the basis for LO related matters proliferation. (Authors' abstract) |
