چکیده

We propose a new educational framework supporting learners in adoption of vocabulary and knowledge for various personalized and engaging pedagogic purposes. The most essential concepts of learning topic are linked based on the shortest connecting paths in hyperlink network of Wikipedia encyclopedia assisted with Wiktionary dictionary. In resulting pedagogic conceptual network learner traverses links along learning path generated by method in sequential process having tailored variation and repetition computed based on theory of spaced learning. The learning path is shown to learner as sequence of compact relation statements extracted from sentences surrounding hyperlinks in Wikipedia articles, supplied with set of visualizations based on main verb identified in them. Based on framework we have implemented prototype tool and promising experiments in educational setting indicated valuable support for adoption of new knowledge.

Generation of learning paths in educational texts based on vocabulary co-occurrence networks in Wikipedia and randomness

We propose a new computational method for generating learning paths in educational texts. The method relies on forming vocabulary co-occurrence networks among articles of Wikipedia online encyclopedia and exploiting random explorations to generate route weighting parameters to form pedagogic co-occurrence networks. Motivated by previous research about scale-free small-world networks we suggest ...
