博士 === 國立高雄師範大學 === 工業科技教育學系 === 98 === Due to the paradigm shift in education, development and application of new technology give rise to new perspectives of learning. Educational technology alters the scope, content, and presentation of knowledge. As a result, changes in the learning process create changes in the approaches to learning. Students acquire new knowledge in a multi-perspective and multi-layered manner by interacting in virtual reality. This new web-based learning support system incorporates the “social presence theory” into the online community and introduces the “knowledge map” computer-mediated learning tools. Students manipulate computer-mediated tools freely to analyze knowledge. This new learning model helps the student not only to construct a comprehensive knowledge framework but to learn basic concepts by providing new learning methods and strategies. In addition, it permits students flexibility in applying what they have learned to situations in life.
