Clarifying The Role Of Self-Efficacy And Metacognition As Indicators Of Learning: Construct Development And Test, Trevor T. Moores, Jerry Cha-Jan Chang, Deborah K. Smith

We propose extending our understanding of self-efficacy by comparing self-efficacy with a related construct called metacognition. Metacognition involves the monitoring and control of one's thought processes and is often related, as is self-efficacy, to performance on a task. We develop an instrument that attempts to measure both self-efficacy and metacognition with respect to one's performance on a test covering declarative and procedural knowledge (knowing that, and knowing how) of DFDs and ERDs. With data collected from a sample of 124 students, we use partial least squares (PLS) to show that self-efficacy and metacognition are distinct yet related constructs. While self-efficacy …


Wfms-Based Data Integration For E-Learning, Jianming Yong, Jun Yan, Xiaodi Huang Jan 2006

Wfms-Based Data Integration For E-Learning, Jianming Yong, Jun Yan, Xiaodi Huang

Faculty of Informatics - Papers (Archive)

As more and more organisations and institutions are moving towards the e-learning strategy, more and more disparate data are distributed by different e-learning systems. How to effectively use this vast amount of distributed data becomes a big challenge. This paper addresses this challenge and works out a new mechanism to implement data integration for e-learning. A workflow management system based (WFMS-based) data integration model is contributed to the e-learning.


Establishing A Vendor Neutral Skills Based Framework For Digital Forensics Curriculum Development And Competence Assessment, Craig Valli Jan 2006

Establishing A Vendor Neutral Skills Based Framework For Digital Forensics Curriculum Development And Competence Assessment, Craig Valli

Research outputs pre 2011

This paper outlines an approach being undertaken between ECU and the Australian Electronic Evidence Special Advisory Group (EESAG) in the production of vendor neutral skills matrix for developing curriculum and evaluating competence. The framework is constructed using Blooms Taxonomy of Learning. This is a work in progress paper and covers the inital stages of the development
