Using ArchiMate to design learning environment architectures
-
摘要: 随着人们对定制和个性化学习体验的愿望越来越强烈,以及众多新工具整合技术的突飞猛进,整体统一的虚拟学习环境(VLEs,也称为学习管理系统LMS)日趋没落,更开放的分布式学习环境(DLEs)异军突起.各种DLE架构语言拥有各自不同的特征,但是,选择出一种合适的架构语言却十分困难.开放组织ArchiMate标准可以解决这个问题.它强调以一个组织形式促进该组织中的所有利益相关者对于架构方面的交流和沟通.ArchiMate是一款可视语言,旨在加强信息技术系统、业务流程、组织结构和决策之间的沟通.本文将介绍一些可阐明合理架构范围的DLE模式,同时对这些模式的潜在可能性以及描述这些模式的ArchiMate语言的应用进行了评估.Abstract: A desire to customise and personalise learning experiences, combined with the rise of a number of new tool integration technologies has led to a move away from monolithic Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs; a.k.a. Learning Management Systems, LMSs) towards more open and Distributed Learning Environments (DLEs). The various DLE architectures can have very different properties, however, and choosing between them can be difficult.The Open Groups ArchiMate standard may help in that regard. It was designed to facilitate communication about architectures between all stakeholders in an organisation. It is a visual language that aims to help conversations about IT systems, business processes, organisational structure and strategy. This paper will present a number of DLE patterns that illustrate the range of possible architectures. Both the potential of these patterns as well as the utility of the ArchiMate language in explicating them will be evaluated.
