InSite
Studio...reducing the cost of instructional design and
increasing the effectiveness of workforce training through
adaptive delivery
|
Advanced E-Learning Design
 InSite Studio is a third
generation software tool adhering to a pedagogical process to
produce adaptive, modular instructional content. Teachers and
instructional designers have participated in both the design and
testing of InSite Studio. The result of this user-driven design
process is an improved design tool for capturing and delivering
instructional flow in a natural, expressive form.
The diagram view in InSite
Studio visually conveys the instructor's desired presentational
flow for the learner. InSite Studio allows teachers to use
intuitive techniques such as flowcharts, outlines, and
storyboards to convey a course design in a hierarchical
structure. This hierarchical view of the learning module
promotes modular design without hindering the design process.
InSite Studio also supports the SCORM 2004 sequencing model,
allowing the combination of internal assessments and sequencing
rules for the design of adaptively delivered content.

Instructional Synthesis
InSite Studio supports instructional synthesis by
allowing new learning objects to be discovered, imported, and
aggregated, creating new instructional content. Learning skins can be
applied to learning objects, enabling consistent and flexible
presentation. Learning objects can be packaged in standard form (SCORM),
providing portability across delivery systems.
These objects can be "tagged" with useful
information, or metadata, bridging the gap between instruction and
technology. The tagged objects are more easily discovered by
instructors, encouraging reuse. In addition, the metadata can be stored
in standard form (LOM), enabling the sharing and exporting of tagged
learning objects.

Facilitates cost-effective workforce training
 Research and development of the InSite Studio e-learning
design environment was driven by the need to enhance the instructional
experience through adaptive delivery, media-rich activities, and remote
computational resources. InSite Studio is the second-generation result
of a multidisciplinary collaboration among computer science, education,
and industrial engineering. This collaboration enables the development
of:
- new pedagogical frameworks for technology-driven
environments, and
- advanced student modeling methods that aid the
delivery of timely and effective instruction.
This collaboration also allows for the observation of human-computer
interaction to quantify workforce training effectiveness.
