Abstract :
As the never-ending development of current knowledge science and computer technology, learning knowledge of multiple curricula or even inter-discipline attracts attention more and more widely in computer supported collaborative learning. So, there exist some reasonable knowledge learning sequences of related curricula. Although there are some researchers focusing on the shortest path selection, they still discuss about the single curriculum. In this study, an optimal path selection algorithm for knowledge learning amongst multiple curricula has been developed for improving the efficiency of computer supported collaborative learning. At the same time, an illustrated example is discussed for explanation.
