Abstract

Nowadays most web-based learning systems have already utilized advanced technologies like web services and etc., even grid computing to minimize the gap between traditional learning and e-Learning. Meanwhile, there is a trend towards achieving automatic and personalized learning. However, learners may find difficulty navigating through learning resources on their own; process control in e-Learning systems is still not fully considered. This paper proposes the learning path concept and its formal definition method, and then a process control model for e-learning is proposed to implement the process control from e-Learning applications to learners. This work improves the learning efficiency by providing teachers tools for designing courses with learning paths and giving students the opportunities to achieve an orderly learning experience through process control strategy. Some questions in application and future works are also discussed.
