AB  -      Improving Learning Technology Design through the Identification of      Anthropologically Invariant Learning Behaviors in the Adoption of                           Educational TechnologyAbstractThe goal of this proposed research is to identify invariants in human learning behavior throughaccumulation and categorization of learning behaviors found independent of culture and throughquantitative analysis of the historical records of technological selection and rejection. Theresults of this research may be used to improve the design criteria for more effectivedevelopment and application of learning technologies, such as deployed in on-line courses and inemerging high immersion game-based learning systems. Furthermore, with better-designedlearning technology systems and devices, leading to broader diffusion and successfulimplementation, then the criteria for technological literacy may more effectively be determined.Objectives of this research include: 1) identifying anthropological invariants in early learning; 2)identifying invariant learning behavior in later stages of learning, including identifying vestigesor artifact behaviors from early learning; 3) documenting the adoption rates, performance, andsubstitution of major learning technologies in technologically advanced societies; 4)demonstrating through the historical record of education technology adoption and rejectioninvariant learning behaviors as cause for the selection and rejection of educational technologies;5) identifying design criteria and potential improvements in the ongoing development andapplication of select learning technologies based on the research results.The initial goal of the research is to achieve preliminary results in each of the proposedobjectives, demonstrate the scholarly and practical merits of such research, and to positionresearch teams to attract continued research funding.
