AH Example Systems Dr. Alexandra Cristea a.i.cristea@warwick.ac.uk http://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~acristea/
Example Adaptive Hypermedia Systems • We show examples that are very different: • TV Scout: personalized TV guide (GMD Darmstadt) • AIMS: Adaptive Information Management System (TU/e+UT) • SQL-Tutor: Intelligent Tutoring System for SQL (Canterbury, • New Zealand) • ISIS tutor (Moscow State University) • Interbook: Adaptive Electronic Textbooks (Univ. of Pittsburgh) • INTRIGUE: adaptable tourist guide (Univ. of Torino) • HERA • MOT (My Online Teacher) • Adaptation to learning styles in (an extension of) AHA! • The ARIA Photo Agent (MIT) with commonsense reasoning
TV Scout: Personalized TV Guide • A cooperation between GMD-IPSI and • Goal: Help users in creating their personal TV schedule • Short-lived data (not a static database) • Low user effort required to “tune” the system • Filtering based on time and genre, information provided by the stations • Users plan only for one day • TV Scout has a simple and an advanced interface, with possibilities for collaborative filtering.
TV Scout: Setting Preferences • Preferred genres can be indicated • Deeper genres are more specific • Less general than Boolean combinations

TV Scout: Evaluation / Feedback • Orientation is easy, but undo is missing • For some users the system is still too complex (opening folders, buttons to small for visually impaired users) • People liked the „grocery list“ (forms interface) • Overall it is useful and easy to use • High fun-factor! • Biggest success indicator is repeat visits by users
AIMS: Task-Based Information Retrieval • Agent-based Information Management System: • concept visualization (using “aquabrowser”) • task-based search (keyword search extended with task information) • user model: keeps track of user’s knowledge and performed tasks • graphical user-interfaces for creating concepts, tasks, courses, etc. • initiated at and evaluated with students from the Universiteit Twente • Note: adaptation to a “moving target”, because the knowledge changes
AIMS Global Information Model • Domain model: defines subject domain by means of a concept map • concepts are linked to each other (“ontology”) • Library model: defines relationship between documents and concepts • how relevant is a document for a given concept • Course model: course topics and tasks • tasks are described using concepts, task description, prerequisites, task status • Learner model: what the user has learned: • course tasks, domain concepts, library documents • overlay model • built jointly by the user and the system
SQL Tutor • Knowledge-based tutor for the SQL language • based on constraint-based modeling • currently deals only with the SELECT statement • users register with an initial knowledge level • system suggests problems based on the knowledge level (based on which clause select, from, where, group by, having or order by the user needs to practice • system was evaluated to find out whether it was useful and pleasant to use • SQL-Tutor is described (and sometimes accessible) at: • http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/tanja.mitrovic/sql-tutor.html • Try out:http://ictg.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz:8000/sql-tutor/login
ISIS-Tutor: adaptive annotation/ hiding • Tutor for CDS/ ISIS library system • CDS/ISIS is a library system for PCs sponsored by UNESCO • ISIS Tutor developed by Peter Brusilovsky and Leonid Pesin • Descendent from an older system ITEM/P (Moscow State Univ.) • Domain and student model for monitoring student knowledge • Tutor component to perform adaptive task sequencing • Hypertext component lets students navigate through course material. • Learning environment lets users interact with ISIS • Versions to determine learning effect of using adaptation • http://www.cs.joensuu.fi/~mtuki/www_clce.270296/Brusilov.html
ISIS Tutor with Link Annotation The wrong example:
Interbook • tool for adaptive electronic textbooks (developed mostly at the Carnegie Mellon University): • authoring through Microsoft Word (+conversion tools) • domain model: concepts and prerequisite relationships • user model: overlay model, updated through “outcome concepts” of read pages • adaptive link annotation • several additional tools: index, glossary, “teach me” • a good description of Interbook: • http://ausweb.scu.edu.au/aw97/papers/eklund/paper.htm
Interbook: Evaluation • Goal: to find a value of adaptive annotation • Electronic textbook about ClarisWorks • 25 undergraduate teacher education students • 2 groups: with/without adaptive annotation • Format: exploring + testing knowledge • Full action protocol • Results: • Sequential navigation dominates (“continue” button) • Adaptive link annotation encourages non-sequential navigation • Most students follow the “green” links
Intrigue: adaptive tourist guide • Allows for the planning of a trip • stereotype user modeling • allows to plan a trip for a diverse group, for instance parents with children • takes physical disabilities into account, age, interests, etc. • can produce output in html or wml (for mobile phone) • can sometimes be tried at: • http://silk.di.unito.it:8083/ishtar/intrigue.html
MOT (My Online Teacher) • Authoring environment based on the LAOS authoring framework that specifies separation of concerns
MOT (old): Domain Concept attribute creation Try at: http://e-learning.dsp.pub.ro/mot/ concept attribute Current concept
MOT (old): Editing a Goal Map Weights of sublesson Labels of sublesson Ordering of lessons
Evaluation of early MOT (2004) Goal point of view evaluation
Semantics in MOT • MOT is based on LAOS and on semantic web directives • necessary • more explicit ontologies, • synonyms - to identify semantic overlaps
User Model in MOT • dynamic model of the user's history; • user model variables should be also user writable (flag); • retrieved by prompting the user • Specified where? AM? UM?
Domain concept attribute MOT: Domain attribute creation Try at: http://prolearn.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/MOT/ Current domain concept
MOT: Goal model authoring Ordering of lessons Weights of sublesson Labels of sublesson
MOT: Goal model authoring Group of Sub- lessons Group alternatives
Evaluation of new MOT (2007) • intensive two-week course AH & SW • 33 out of 61 students selected: 4th year Engineering & 2nd year MsC in CS • theoretical exam half way for selecting students due to space constraints in computer room • at the end: practical exam & 5 questionaires • 3 systems: OLD MOT, NEW MOT & Sesame2MOT
