¶ … Learner Centric Learning Framework That Has the Following Characteristics;
Reward students for effort
Students hands on Students select level of competencies
Students design lessons through video games
Students stay engaged
Students gains confident
The learner centric learning framework will be designed in a manner that effectively reward the learners in order to motivate them into taking their learning endeavors serious (Jones,2007; Pedersen and Liu,2003). The system will allow for hands on experience in lesson design and implementation. The learner centric learning framework will also allow for the students to effectively select their own levels of competencies. The core element of this system is that it is fun. This is due to the fact that it allows the students to effectively design their own lessons via video games. This ensures that the students are engaged throughout the lesson while also gaining a lot of confidence. The implementation of this information technology (IT)-based learner centric learning framework will be in line with the fact that several Americans are online (About 199 million).This means that different businesses and institutions must be connected to the internet as well as wireless infrastructure in order for them to be effective as indicated by Pew Internet and American Life (2009).
The IT Components that will be used in making the learner centric learning framework a reality
Hardware and Devices
Several hardware and devices are necessary for the implementation of the learner centric learning framework. There is a need for system/hardware compatibility issues to be taken into account while implementing such a system. The ability of the system to function with legacy operating systems is also paramount. This is due to the fact that different students may have old operating systems in their home computers. In regard to the implementation of the system within the school premises,...
These are;
1. Microsoft Windows® platform (could be Windows® 2000, Windows XP Home, Windows XP Professional, Windows Vista as well as Windows® 7).
2. Apple Macintosh® platform (could be Mac OS® X 10.4 (Tiger®) or any other later version.
3. Linux ® platform (could be any operating system that can supports Internet explorer, Mozilla or higher as well as Chrome
Applications
The main applications that will be used in the implementation of the learner centric learning platform are;
1. The gaming application that will be hosted in a virtual environment that is similar to Second Life Virtual Gaming environment (Inman, Wright, Hartman,2010).
2. Web browsers such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Chrome and Safari.
3. Antivirus software to protect the e-Learning platform from threats from the larger internet infrastructure.
Hardware
If the Microsoft Windows® platform is used then the hardware should be IBM® having a compatible processor (CPU), VGA, memory (RAM) as well as hard drive with capacities that match the requirements for the different operating systems.
If the Apple Macintosh® platform is to be used then the hardware should comprise of Mac computer having an Intel processor, PowerPC G5 processor, or PowerPC G4 processor of 867 MHz or faster as dictated by the operating system minimum requirements
If the Linux ® platform is used then the hardware must comprise of a Processor (CPU), VGA, memory (RAM), as well as hard drive capacity that meets the operating system minimum requirements.
The other essential infrastructure/requirements for the operation of the learner-centric learner platforms are;
Internet access (dedicated broadband…

For the purposes of this review, Web-based instruction is considered to be any educational or training program distributed over the Internet or an intranet and conveyed through a browser, such as Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Java applet-based instruction is a special form of Web-based instruction. Although there is very little research on comparing the effectiveness of Java applet-based instruction to the traditional face-to-face offering. However Web-based instruction has received enough

Learning that is imparted through an educational institution or training company within the workplace setting in known as Work-based learning (WBL). WBL is administered by an external teacher in professional capacity and supervised by an employee of the company where WBL is imparted.

CBT Analysis of Learning Methods and the Impact of Computer-Based Training (CBT) Programs Compare and contrast the four differences in learning styles. Propose ways a trainer can help each type of learner. The four differences in learning styles are often characterized by convergers, divergers, assimilators and accommodators (Mumford, Honey, 1992). There are significant differences between each, and the intent of this analysis is to compare and contrast them with each other. The converger
Elementary Special Education Teachers Place Value in the use of Technology Resources for Students? Alix Desulme Technology is an integral part of society. Students learn through use of technology like personal computers, tablets, and e-books (Garland & Tadeja, 2013). Computers can provide access to videos, documents, and other forms of data that students have the choice of absorbing via visual or auditory methods. Tablets provide the same access but with a
Educational Diagnosis The ethical dilemma of diagnosing a learner with a disability when there are other alternatives for support Resnik (2011) defines ethics as "norms for conduct that distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable behavior." As in research, participants have data source rights, so too in teaching/education do students, parents/guardians, teachers and staff have legal rights that should be observed and respected in the course of ethical adherence. These rights include all Constitutional
