- Description
- ADL BAA 2016-2021 ADL seeks innovative research on a range of learning science and technology topics, designed to ultimately build a persistent capability for effective, personalized learning-presented anytime, anywhere, and via any device or platform. ADL invites research proposals in these general focus areas, described below. Specific research topics of interest (i.e., the project topics under each of these focus areas) are listed on the ADL website ● e-Learning (web-based learning): Research technical components and techniques to develop and support electronic-based education and training. This includes R&D on the creation, delivery, and tracking of web-based learning content in a consistent and interoperable way; best practices for e-learning policy and processes; and various components for supporting web-based learning, such as content and learning management systems, content registries, and Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). ● Mobile learning (m-Learning) and mobile performance support: Research focused on the use of commercially-available handheld computing devices to provide access to learning content and information resources by leveraging ubiquitous mobile technology for the adoption or augmentation of knowledge, behaviors, or skills through education, training, or performance support. ● Learning analytics and performance modeling: Research in the collection, measurement, analysis, and reporting of data, which may include "big data," about learners and their contexts, for purposes of understanding, optimizing, and predicting learning success. Other topics under this category may include competencies, credentialing, learner profiles, data visualization, open/social learner models, and associated privacy and information security concerns. ● Learning theory: Research focused on the application, evaluation, and embedding of efficient and effective, current, new, and emerging theories of learning, learning science, instructional technology, and tutoring to the design, prototyping, and evaluation of primarily digital learning technologies. This research is pervasive, touching all aspects of research and development performed by ADL. ● Total Learning Architecture (TLA) infrastructure: Research focused on modernizing the platforms used for education and training, to interoperability of disparate systems so they can be used together as a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to securely share relevant learning data including, but not limited to, granular learning experience information, competency frameworks, learner profiles and metadata about learning and training content. ● Web-based Virtual Worlds (VWs) and simulation: Research into the emerging fields of serious games, simulations, and virtual reality (within a distributed learning context) for the purpose of providing rich interactive content, delivered to remote learners, allowing these learners to exercise skills that are either too costly, complex, or dangerous to practice in real life. ● Other opportunities: ADL may also consider submissions outside these areas if the proposal involves the development of novel distributed learning capabilities having promise to provide significant innovation in distributed learning contexts.
