Abstract
The Car driving E-learning is teach people how to driving car software. it is use Flash and 3D Max and video make .
1. Introduction (what and why)
E-learning :
E-learning (or electronic learning or eLearning) is a term that encompasses all forms of Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) or very specific types of TEL such as online or Web-based learning. [1]
The term E-Learning 2.0[2] is a neologism for CSCL systems that came about during the emergence of Web 2.0[3]. From an E-Learning 2.0 perspective, conventional e-learning systems were based on instructional packets, which were delivered to students using Internet technologies. The role of the student consisted in learning from the readings and preparing assignments. Assignments were evaluated by the teacher. In contrast, the new e-learning places increased emphasis on social learning and use of social software such as blogs, wikis, podcasts and virtual worlds such as Second Life [4]. This phenomenon has also been referred to as Long Tail Learning[5] See also (Seely Brown & Adler 2008)[5]
E-Learning 2.0, by contrast to e-learning systems not based on CSCL, assumes that knowledge (as meaning and understanding) is socially constructed. Learning takes place through conversations about content and grounded interaction about problems and actions. Advocates of social learning claim that one of the best ways to learn something is to teach it to others.[6]
Car driving E- Leaning:
A driving test (also known as a driving exam) is a procedure designed to test a person's ability to drive a motor vehicle. It exists in various forms worldwide, and is often a requirement for obtaining a driver's license. A driving test generally consists of one or two parts; the practical test, called a road test,[7]
Car driving E- leaning is teach people how to driving car software. It is teach how to driving car on road. People can study it on computer. But people do Not to be confused with a test drive, where prospective buyers drive cars to test them. People can learn it, then go to test drive. This software can teach all car driving techniques. Driving in traffic is more than just knowing how to operate the mechanisms which control the vehicle; it requires knowing how to apply the rules of the road (which govern safe and efficient sharing with other users). An effective driver also has an intuitive understanding of the basics of vehicle handling.[8],
Driving as a physical skill
In terms of the basic physical tasks required, a driver must be able to control direction, acceleration, and deceleration. For motor vehicles, the detailed tasks include: [8]
1. Starting the vehicle's engine with the starting system
2. Setting the transmission to the correct gear
3. Depressing the pedals with one's feet to accelerate, slow, and stop the vehicle, and if the vehicle is equipped with a manual transmission, to modulate the clutch
4. Steering the vehicle's direction with the steering wheel
5. Operating other important ancillary devices such as the indicators, headlights, and windshield wipers
[edit] Driving as a mental skill
Avoiding or successfully handling an emergency driving situation can involve the following skills: [8]
1. Making good decisions based on factors such as road and traffic conditions
2. Evasive maneuvering
3. Proper hand placement and seating position
4. Skid control
5. Steering and braking techniques
6. Understanding vehicle dynamics
This is software’s Contents
1. Car checks
2. observation
3. react to hazards
4. mirrors
5. clearance/ overtake
6. signals
7. progress
8. vehicle controls
9. speed
10. traffic controls
11. right of way
12. reverse
13. turnabout
14. parking
2. BackGround(why)
Yielding problems due to bad drivers’ attitudes have been identified by drivers as the leading cause of freeway-ramp merge area crashes, followed by lack of attention/talking on cell phone. Most of the drivers believe that they need longer acceleration lanes, better ramp signing and better driver’s education especially in terms of sign meaning [9]
Drivers' awareness, judgment and operations prior to an accident were extracted by making a detailed analysis of the descriptions, situational diagrams and photographs contained in traffic accident in-depth investigation data base. The traffic environment, relative positions of the vehicles, point at which the partner vehicle was perceived and other relevant details were also extracted. Accident factors were examined on the basis of a classification of collision partners (automobile, motorcycle, bicycle), right of way or non-right of way, and the relationship between the position where partner perception was physically possible and the actual position where potential danger was perceived.[10]
So, The Car driving E- leaning is teach people how to driving car and show driver. Which car driving is right? What is can do, what is can’t to do.
Autodesk 3ds Max:
Autodesk 3ds Max, formerly 3D Studio MAX, is a modeling, animation and rendering package developed by Autodesk Media and Entertainment. 3ds Max is the largest selling 3D computer animation program in the world according to Autodesk internal reports. In addition, it is the third most widely-used off the shelf content creation tool used by professionals according to the Roncarelli report.[11] It has strong modeling capabilities, a flexible plugin architecture
Flash :
Aobe Flash (formerly Macromedia Flash) is a multimedia platform originally acquired by Macromedia and currently developed and distributed by Adobe Systems. Since its introduction in 1996, Flash has become a popular method for adding animation and interactivity to web pages. Flash is commonly used to create animation, advertisements, and various web page Flash components, to integrate video into web pages, and more recently, to develop rich Internet applications.[12]
Video:
Video technology was first developed for cathode ray tube television systems, but several new technologies for video display devices have since been invented. Standards for television sets and computer monitors have tended to evolve independently, but advances in computer performance and digital television broadcasting and recording are producing some convergence. Computers can now display television and film-style video clips and streaming media, encouraged by increased processor speed, storage capacity, and broadband access to the Internet. General purpose computing hardware can now be used to capture, store, edit, and transmit television and movie content, as opposed to older dedicated analog technologies.
Car driving E-learning
I will use flash to do interface. Put teach how to driving video. Some wrong Car driving and accident use 3d max to do it.
Breakdown of activities
Event Activity Diagram
I divide project to several very detail-oriented activities
