Applying Interactive Open Learner Models to Learning Technical Terminology
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our work explores an interactive open learner modelling (IOLM) approach where learner diagnosis is considered as an interactive process involving both a computer system and a learner that play symmetrical (to a certain extent) roles and construct together the learner model. The paper presents an application of IOLM for diagnosing and fostering a learner's conceptual understanding in a terminological domain. Based on an experimental study, we discuss computational and educational benefits of IOLM in terms of improving the quality of the obtained learner model and fostering reflective thinking.

Examining the use of conceptual graphs in adaptive web-based systems that aid terminology learning
This paper discussed the use of Conceptual Graphs (CGs) for implementing tasks employed in web-based educational systems that aid terminology learning. Specifically, we focus on two critical issues in intelligent tutoring student diagnosis and generation of adaptive explanations. Both tasks are demonstrated in terminological domains where learners have to familiarize themselves with concepts in...
متن کاملThe Interactive Maintenance of Open Learner Models
Opening the learner model is a process involving the learner as a collaborator in building a model of his beliefs. The interaction plays a crucial role here since it provides both the system and the learner with a medium to reflect on the learner’s beliefs. In this paper we describe a computational framework for the interactive maintenance of open learner models. It adopts some approaches from ...
متن کاملA Knowledge Based Approach to Support Learning Technical Terminology
In this paper we discuss the structure of a domain in a terminological area and some aspects related to using it for computer-based intelligent instruction. The most significant aspect of the suggested terminological model lies in its effective applicability for tutoring. We consider two basic instructional issues: (1) organising the pedagogical process and guiding instruction; (2) building int...

متن کاملTowards Personal infrastructure to manage long term open learner models
Nowadays, the lifelong learning is a key issue in our life. Learners have their personal learning data scattered on different platforms and websites without any control on them and without any defined access duration. In this paper, we propose to explore the feasibility of Personal information manager systems in the Open Learner Model context that allows the control of personal learning data by...
