Open Learner Models: Opinions of School Education Professionals

چکیده
This work surveys the opinions of teachers and other education professionals regarding the potential for Open Learner Models (OLM) in UK schools. We describe the aims of OLM, and of current UK initiatives involving formative assessment and promotion of metacognitive skills. We conclude that UK education professionals appreciate a synergy of these approaches, and that OLMbased systems could be valuable in achieving educational aims in schools.
