Abstract

The integration of Learning Objects Repositories, Information Visualization, Web and new Visual Interaction techniques will change and expand the paradigms of current work of learners on the Web. Virtual learning will improve visual communication that takes place in all elements of the user collaboration and provide decreased "time-to-enlightenment". Virtual learning is a process that provides information visualization technology to address the challenge of discovering and exploiting information for the purpose of learning. This article examines the issue faced by most eLearning systems – how to turn data into understandable learning knowledge, and make this knowledge accessible to peers who rely on it. It introduces a generic design model for Collaborative Virtual Learning based on the Model-View-Controller design pattern.
