  1. A Knowledge-based Approach to Describe and Adapt Learning Objects Amel Bouzeghoub, Bruno Defude, J.-F. Duitama, Claire Lecocq GET/INT - France ProLearn-iClass Thematic Workshop – 3-4 March 2005, Leuven

  2. Outline • Context and goals • Three levels model • Domain model • User model • Learning object model • Learning strategies and adaptive process • Conclusion and on-going work

  3. Context and goals • Numerous pedagogical resources of different nature (html pages, multimedia, web-services, etc.) • accessed, exchanged between teachers with no dedicated tool • first common knowledge bases • Provide an environment of • authoring • increase the productivity of the teacher by supporting the reuse and composition of contents • presentation of pedagogical contents adapted to the learner A model of reusable learning objects

  10. Conclusion and on-going work • A semantic model • describes domain, user and learning objects • provides authors and learners powerful mechanisms to manage, reuse, compose learning objects, to organize concepts and to adapt content to users • A prototype is being implemented • models are implemented with RDF • SeRQL query language is used as inference layer (Sesame) • Open problem : distributed architectures

  13. User model U.M = <preferences, domain-knowledge> domain-knowledge = {<Learner, role, concept, educational-state>} 1) Learner = User Id 2) role : {analyze, apply, compare, define, demonstrate, describe, evaluate, experiment, history, illustrate, introduce, summarize} 3)concept Domain model 4) educational-state:(“Not-visited”, “Visited”, knowledge-level) knowledge-level = {“very low”, “low”, “medium”, “high” , “very high”}

  14. Learning object model • Component = piece of software (document, set of web pages, program, …) accessible via an URI • Unit of reuse and composition • Described by a set of meta-data • IEEE LOM standard • Extended with semantic description

  15. Semantic of simple operators

  16. Failure Handling • Previous expressions do not handle unsuccessful component access • A component is unsuccessful when its acquisition function returns FAIL • Failure expression : •  Ci SEQ Cj : after a failure of Ci try Cj •  Cin SEQCin : after a failure of Ci try again n times (at most) •  Ci SEQ FAIL : after a failure of Ci propagates the failure to the overall component
