Paper Abstract:
|
This paper represents an effort in moving the existing problem-based learning (PBL) paradigm to e-learning through the use of screencasts. The paper makes a significant contribution to the distance education research with respect to the applicability of PBL methods in the online environment and provides needed implications for the design and delivery of highly technical computing courses that have traditionally been taught in face-to-face settings. With the recent developments in screencast technology, one can expect to see increasingly more screencasts to be produced for educational purposes. The paper exemplifies the use of screencasts in an online PBL course and suggests the exciting possibilities for screencasting as an instructional technology. |
