| description | Distance Education implementation has been greatly influenced by the changing
of the current sophisticated technologies. Internet and World Wide Web (WWW) have
enabled the rapid growth of distance education technology. The Internet is a huge
database that connects most of the information source centers worldwide. This
technology is equipped with the existence of WWW that ease accesses to the sources.
With these technologies, distance education can be implemented properly. An
approach been developed is the implementation of distance education through WWW.
Learning modules are kept in a Web server while the student can access the modules from scattered terminals linked to the server via the network. It is a method of
module delivery to the students that which are easier and faster.
Even though distance education requires individual capability to manage the
time and learning effort, the educators still have the responsibilities in evaluating their
students' achievements. It is easier to evaluate on-campus students compared to
distance learners. If the educators can evaluate on-campus students through their
attendance and work performance, an appropriate approach to evaluate out-campus
students' effort and commitment is necessary. There is a file that is specially created by a Web server which keeps and lists all
access requests and transaction information made to the files kept within the server.
This particular file is known as an "access_log" file. There has been a substantial effort
to manipulate the file, for example, this study used "access_log" file to filter out
information to produce students' distance module access statistics which is able to
assist distance educators to evaluate distance students' commitment as well as to
measure modules' design efficiency. |
