Abstract
Due to the IPV4 address exhaustion problem, how to efficiently promote and learn the IPv6 upgrade knowledge has been paid more attention. Therefore, based on the concept of the self-adaptive learning, this study proposes a design scheme of the Virtual Experiment Learning Activity for learning IPv6 subject (IPv6-VELA), which is able to integrate the relevant learning materials for conceptual learning with virtual experiment for the hands-on learning. Therefore, the learners are able to learn the IPv6 upgrade knowledge in the step-by-step manner by means of the scaffolding supports, where the Formative and Summative Diagnostic Reports will be generated according to learners’ learning portfolio to assist them in facilitating the self-adaptive learning. The experimental result also shows that the IPv6-VELA-based learning activity is beneficial for both the learners and teachers.
