A Taxonomy for Choosing, Evaluating, and Integrating In-the-Cloud Resources in a University Environment
Kahn, Russell L.
Journal of Educational Technology Systems, v41 n2 p171-181 2012-2013
This article develops and applies an analytic matrix for searching and using Web 2.0 resources along a learning continuum based on learning styles. This continuum applies core concepts of cognitive psychology, which places an emphasis on internal processes, such as motivation, thinking, attitudes, and reflection. A pilot study found that access to multiple media and enhanced graphical tools in an online classroom responds to students' varied learning styles. This article applies Bloom's Taxonomy of learning styles to explain the matrix. It presents preliminary evidence that indicates how use of multiple resources works to include more learning styles and thus engage and motivate more students. (Contains 4 tables and 2 figures.)
