Outlines • Motivation • Objectives • Methodology • Experiments • Conclusions • Comments
Motivation • Reducing the amount of content transmitted may negatively impact the meaning conveyed within. • Due to the problem of the oft-decried information overload, delivering large amounts of text contents makes mobile learners challenging, especially for learning purposes.
Objectives • This study investigates automatic text summarization to provide a tool set that reduces the quantity of textual content for mobile learning support. • This study aims to investigate a technology for content processing that can be used to summarize text contents effectively to align content size to match various characteristics of mobile devices.
Methodology – Research questions • Identifies the general usefulness of the generated summaries for learning purposes. • Determines what the optimal summaries will be if a higher level of learning achievement is required. • Analyzes what kind of short summaries are still helpful in reaching a sufficient level of learning.
