Spector (2014) considered that smart learning environment supports planning and innovative alternatives for learners and instructors, and should be effectiveness, efficiency, engagement, flexibility, adaptivity, and reflectiveness.
In an attempt to change the status quo, the present study uses sociocultural theory as an alternative through which learners' strategy use and development can be mediated.
A learning environment that supports planning and innovative alternatives (for the learner or for the instructor) can be considered smart, especially if and when outcomes are desirable.
The performance of the model also claims that it can be good alternative to the specialized learners (each designed for specific disease) published in the literature.
Using an automated process built on machine learning algorithms, Blackboard Ally is a Learning Management System LMSS) plugin that checks content within the LMS for accessibility issues and then creates alternative content formats for learners.
Sperling was a tenured professor at San Jose State University in 1972 when he hit on the idea of an alternative institution for adult learners whose needs were not being met by traditional colleges and universities.
The curriculum revisions were focused on learner-centered instruction as an alternative approach to traditional instruction because learner-centered teaching increases students' knowledge and can improve attitudes toward learning (e.g., Ebert-May et al., 2003; Knight and Wood, 2005).
An additional benefit of robot math is its potential appeal as an "alternative" method for classrooms of learners who are considered at-risk of not learning the mathematics skills essential for testing and success using mainstream curriculum.
Yet, the question is not whether the MOOC experience is better than the classroom, it is whether it is better than the next best alternative which for many online learners may be nothing, or at most, a book or other written materials.
All employed technology extensively, and alternative pedagogies that were more learner-centered and based on "how students learn".
Drawing on both Rogers and Daviss's theories, the attribute of an Internet-based course that provided the most coherent and complete explanation of technology acceptance was the perceived usefulness of the technological medium (in the eyes of potential learners) over an alternative delivery format.
