2. e-Learning vs. web-learning
• What are the objectives of this course?
– The main objective of this course is to expose the
participants / (emulating) students, to a vast body of
knowledge and competences on the different uses of
ICT (information and communication technologies)
throughout the globe, focusing especially on
– new learning methods based on the
– ubiquitous worldwideweb.
This is what we call
– web-learning. Much of the class focuses on
discussion based on readings assigned out of class.
3. B-learning vs self-paced learning
• How learning platforms are
cahnging with changes of the
Internet and the Web?
• Evolution from Web-1, Web 2.0 and Web 3.0
are really significant: thus one should imagine
a similar evolution in web-based learning
environment and systems;
• In fact this is not so clear as one could
imagine: nevertheless we wanto to make it
more clear here.
4. B-learning
• What does it mean b-learning?
– B-learning is a definition firstly used in 1999 by
an e-learning services vendor in Canada; globally-
based projects
• it is not an academic or research definition, just
a commercial slogan
• It does not implies a deep, new concept. It only
means “a mix between distance and presence
learning
• Despite of this origins it is today quite largely
spread all over the world.
5. e-learning
• Like in e-mail, or in e-commerce, e-learning
means
– a set of learning processes and activities based on a
electronic environment providing a simple
virtualization of learning spaces
– Like email means: a message that you can send
without sending any tangible support
– Elearning means: a traditional learning process based
on a virtual platform that enables decoupling between
the learners location in space and teachers location in
space
6. e-commerce
• Same transformation is recognized in e-
commerce
E-commerce implies a virtualization of the process of selling and
buying stuff in terms of localization, or in other words, in terms of
property of the space of the process actors, but not necessarily in
terms of a distinct logic of the process
You can’t see any difference between a process of commercial
exchange that take place over Internet: you could also imagine to
implement a commercial exchange ( a sell, or a buy) without any
need to use the WorldWideWeb at all
• The client receive a catalog of merchandise via e-mail
• He or she select the goods he needs; the he will send an e-mail
with the needed data: quantity order, specifications, etc.
• He/ she will pay to a bank and will send a payment receipt to
the seller
• The seller verify his bank account to check money transfer
• The seller send in the goods to the buyer via a parcel service
• The buyer receive the goods and send a receipt email to the
seller
7. e-commerce
• Everybody continues to refer to e-commerce
even today, when Web enabled commerce is
changing the rules
Web based commerce implies today deeper change in the commerce scenario; it is not so trivial
to understand what is changing, but you can say something more then the mere localization is
changing. A virtualization of the whole process of selling and buying stuff is undergoing, let’s see
what does it means.
You can be able to recognize differences between traditional process and a web-based process.
• Clients today are supposed to actively and consistently browse catalogs of many different
providers on the WorldWideWeb
• Clients are served with third party price comparison tools: such a tool will make the
comparison for the client and the seller is aware too that his good will be compared with
worldwide similar products; this is not a quantitative change, it is a qualitative change.
• Sellers are forced to cope with a worldwide market and with worldwide competition
• Seller will tray to conquer the fidelity of his potential client with some other service
connected to the sell; otherwise he is kept in a consant war with other sellers all over the
world
• For some types of goods untangible delivery will end the process; the buyer will receive the
goods without any special competence via WorldWideWeb
8. e-learning vs. web-based learning
• How many other specification are changed in
the learning / teaching process?
Each dimension of the learning process presents us with a choice. Since it is virtually impossible, for example, to
simultaneously
• drive a car (Concrete Experience) and
• analyze a driver’s manual about the car’s functioning (Abstract Conceptualization), we resolve the conflict by
choosing.
Because of our hereditary equipment, our particular past life experiences, and the demands of our present
environment, we develop a preferred way of choosing.
We resolve the conflict between concrete or abstract and between active or reflective in some patterned,
characteristic ways.
We call these patterned ways “learning styles.”

9. Web-learning vs. e-learning
• What are the differneces in the real class usage of a
LCMS like Moodle and a contructivist CMS like Plone?
• Who is an expert in this conceptualization?
• Who controls quality of e-learning, b-learning and
eventually of its evolutionary next step, web-learning?
• Will the Linked Open Data new era let us discover and
exploit the symmetric, cooperative, peer to peer
learning of the 21. century?
• What can we apply to our real day by day working
activity?

17. Web-learning vs. e-learning
• Let’s start to present what LOD is for real: before we engage
ourselves in the practice, let me explain some principle:
– LOD are ..
– Nation based consortia are fastly developing services that fits
every national community needs
– You can use LODs sets and you can invite your students to learn
how to use these new net-objects
• For Italy, the more dynamic agencies are:
– MiBAC
– Pisa
– Dbpedia Italy
– Linlked Open Data Italy
18. Learning, co-Learning / Teaching with
LODs
• When your students are able to inteconnect
datasets to extract new knowledge, they will
be finally able to teach you new things!
– imagine examples of this:
• Statistics about population using datasets provided by
