{"product_id":"orchestration-graphs-pierre-dillenbourg-9782940222841","title":"Orchestration Graphs: Modeling Scalable Education","description":"By modeling pedagogical scenarios as directed geometrical graphs and proposing an associated modeling language, this book describes how rich learning activities, often designed for small classes, can be scaled up for use with thousands of participants. With the vertices of these graphs representing learning activities and the edges capturing the pedagogical relationship between activities, individual, team, and class-wide activities are integrated into a consistent whole. The workflow mechanisms modeled in the graphs enable the construction of scenarios that are richer than those currently implemented in MOOCs. The cognitive states of learners in two consecutive activities feed a transition matrix, which encapsulates the probability of succeeding in the second activity, based on success in the former. This transition matrix is summarized by a numerical value, which is used as the weight of the edge. This pedagogical framework is connected to stochastic models, with the goal of making learning analytics more appealing for data scientists. However, the proposed modeling language is not only useful in learning technologies, it also allows researchers in learning sciences to formally describe the structure of any lesson, from an elementary school lesson with 20 students to an online course with 20,000 participants.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pierre Dillenbourg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 2940222843\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9782940222841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Epfl Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/24\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Pierre Dillenbourg","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44073508634879,"sku":"9782940222841","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ca1ad602-be90-4420-9301-4038951253a8.jpg?v=1685448234","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/orchestration-graphs-pierre-dillenbourg-9782940222841","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
