Integrated learning systems

Integrated learning systems are hardware/software solutions designed to deliver instructional content. The effective delivery of that content is measured, monitored, and maintained with an array of assessment and management tools that may also be part of that system.

Integrated learning systems are generally associated with educational/academic environments, but are also deployed within private industry, for example, as a way to introduce employees to new, mission critical systems and software applications.

As opposed to static online help or even animated tutorials, integrated learning systems are highly interactive and are designed to provide feedback as to progress and grasp of the subject matter at hand. Built-in tools further allow executive management or instructors and trainers to monitor and measure a student's progress.

General characteristics
  • Instructional objectives are specified with individual lessons tied to the objectives.[1]
  • Lessons are integrated into the standard curriculum.
  • Courseware spans several grade levels in comprehensive fashion.
  • Courseware is delivered on a networked system of microcomputers or terminals.
  • Management systems collect and record results of student performance.
gollark: I am at least not too against Nobody, say, finding that someone has some exposed informatiodataæ™ on the internet, and privately telling them so; I *am* against them apparently just saying "ahahahahahaha look at me I have found your information" and refusing to stop.
gollark: I mean, the arguments are pretty similar to the ones about vulnerabilities in network/computery stuff, but generally it's considered nice *there* to *stop doing stuff if the owner tells you to*.
gollark: Oh well!
gollark: I would prefer him to just not at all, or possibly directly bother me about it then stop if I ask.
gollark: It's not perfectly fine to stalk people just because you also don't reveal it to them.
