Modelling Learners Preferences
Modelling Learners Preferences
Overview
This wiki was started in the Workshop on Experiences on Accessible eLearning Platforms at OpenACS and .LRN Spring Conference, Vienna 2007. More info in the corresponding presentation.
As
pointed out by Daveb, the section has been renamed to Modelling Learnes
Preferences, since user preferences are separate from a learning system.
The goal is to build in OpenACS support for learners modelling by gatherig data about learners from different sources:
- Learning Styles (Felder test)
- IMS-QTI questionnaires
- Active (create) and passive (read) interactions
There is a need for the integration with processing mechanisms and specifications representations, such as data mining algorithms (Weka), multi-agent sytems (JADE agents) or RDF management (Sesame toolkit), among others.
Two scenarios:
- Semantic based (specifications)
- Usage of the platform services
Other ideas:
- Use the same API to produce the layout (SCORM and IMS-LD)
Comments:
- bottom up approach
Standards and Specifications:
- IMS-LIP
- CC/PP
- SCORM CMI
- URC
