A Problem-based Learning Management System Using Fuzzy Petri Net

Abstract

The e-learning system has been proposed in many collaborative learning environments to help learners. This study enhances e-learning system to computer-assisted problem-based learning system, investigates its effectiveness for gender communication in undergraduate students, and develops six learning phases to produce a workflow-based course definition in Gender communication. To manage these complex learning activities, a problem-based learning management system (PBLMS) based on fuzzy Petri nets (FPN) was proposed. In this study, we completed a problem-based learning project of gender communication with a sample of ninety undergraduates who register for the common course and empirically demonstrated results. Using the PBLMS-FPN system, the academic load of teachers in mass course environments can be reduced and higher quality education can be achieved.
