Vorvilas, George; Vergidis, Dimitris; Ravanis, Konstantinos – Themes in Science and Technology Education, 2011
This paper presents a genre-based conceptual framework for designing content for learning objects. Some content aggregation models are reviewed in order to stress the lack of such an approach. In this framework, learning objects are considered as multimodal macrogenres. These macrogenres are constituted of content objects which in fact are several…
