Direct Execution Learning Technology

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 372))

Abstract

Technologies are pervading the daily life and are changing the way in which humans learn from school through higher education and vocational training to life-long learning. Peculiarities of the technology determine the potential advantages of technology enhanced learning and characterize the difficulties, pitfalls, and risks of particular approaches. Direct execution is a new paradigm emerging from the combination of the direct manipulation idea with contemporary meme media technology. Direct execution denotes the feature of media objects to be able to run automatically when manipulated by humans and when sticked together. Direct execution turns out to be an effective approach to exploratory learning even in abstract domains such as, for instance, recursion theory.
