Open and Collaborative Learning Model Based on Metacognitive Strategies

Liviana TUDOR, Adrian MOISE
Abstract

In this paper, the authors describe an open and collaborative model based on metacognitive neural strategies applied to students’ research projects in Artificial Neural Networks. The model is focused both on instructor–student and student–student interactions and includes an on-line knowledge-based intelligent system as well as several social psychological determinants. The performance of the proposed model is proved by the results obtained by the MSc students, their motivation to complete a postgraduate course and it is justified by the highly useful online knowledge base. The functionality and efficiency of the intelligent system are highlighted by traffic and log analysis of the Open Source data collections used in the disciplines which have been involved in the experiment.
