Abstract:

Introduction: This paper deals with the key elements that should be included in a
personalized learning environment (PLE) to assist tutors in the effective development
of online tutoring.
Materials and methods: Key elements are defined from a quality management
perspective and applied within the context of an action-research study, to develop a
tutoring model supported on a personalized learning environment for tutors. PLE
includes the training and assessment of the tutoring process based on management
quality indicators (planning, performance and results of tutoring).
Results: The paper also shows the results of the partial implementation of PLE in a
training course for physicians in the field of nephrology. The average among all
indicators (8.5) is over the minimum (7), just like the global indicator for all tutors. The
tasks with the best indicators are progress monitoring, with 9.9 points, and the
evaluation of results, with 8.9 points.
Conclusions: According to these results it may be concluded that PLE’s impact on
tutoring quality is positive and that it is necessary to implement the full model to
obtain more information and establish cause-effect relations between the involved
variables. |
