Registration/Login Dialogue

Registration/Login Dialogue

• Choose login name/password• Sometimes students enroll into

special groups in order to receive special treatment strategy, or particular courses only

• Important legal clause – saving personal data, depending on the country this might be subject to changes

• Full name and email address are optional

• Entering field of interests might affect the adaptation of examples in generated courses

• Specifying learning context restricts access to the material to those suitable for this context

Extended Book Concept : 3-Panel Interface

Extended Book Concept : Defining Bookmarks

Click to bookmark this page

The check box indicates a bookmark

Bookmarks show up in a separate panel in the dashboard

Left panel: Table of contents with progress indicator

Hierarchical structure

Progress indicators using percentages

Left panel: progress indicators

• Success indicators can have different modes showing different kind of progress• If the indicator type is set to success, only correctly solved exercises contribute


• If the indicator type is set to success, only correctly solved exercises contribute

Exercise incorrect

No success indicated


• If the indicator type is set to effort, then all attempts contribute, even the wrong ones

Exercise incorrect

Success indicates a solution attempt


• If the indicator type is set to mastery, then the success can also decrease

Exercise incorrect

Success decreaseswith incorrect solutions


• If the indicator type is set to none, then no success indicators are shown

Right panel: Metadata of an item • Title and type of the Learning Object • Authors, Editors, Date of Creation, other general Metadata• License of the Learning Object

Right panel: Metadata of an item

• Languages in which the item is available• Relations to other items

Right panel: Switching Language of a LO

Switching the language here will affect the selected learning object

Right panel: Switching Language of an LO

Right panel: Social voting feature

• Distribution of votes by different users result into percentage of red and green colors

• Public comments as well as private notes can be attached to an item• Problems in content and system can be reported to the developers

Semantic Search Function

Semantic Search Function

Find exercises about derivatives

Click on one exerciseThe exercise opens

in a new tab and can be solved

Adaptive Course Generation

Choose a Scenario for the Course-Generation

Choose the topic (one or more concepts or a course chapter)


Review the summary of the course generation parameters


Generated course is adapted to the learner


Micro- Course generation

• Near each exercise there is a button „more about the topic“

• A micro course about the focus concepts of the exercise is generated on click

• If the course is not adapted to the user, it always contains all the information about the topic and its prerequisites

Micro- Course generation• A generated static micro course can be very big, almost

not “mirco” any longer• It might be better if it is adapted to the learner

• The course is then much smaller• The learner only gets information he does not already

know• Examples in the course are adapted to the learner as well

Formula editor and further interactive elements• Formula Editor enables input of mathematical formulas• Exercises with simple answers can be solved without formula

editor• Formula editor can work with different palettes

Exercises types: Self Assessment

• Solve a Self-assessment exercises on the paper• Compare your solution with the given model solution• Estimate the correctness on own solution

Exercises types: multiple choice

• Single or multiple answer exercises possible• Flag Feedback via coloring the chosen answers red or green, plus

correct/wrong symbols

Exercises types: fill in blank

• Use formula editor for entering answers• Flag Feedback is presented in a form of coloring and special correct/wrong symbols

Exercises with intelligent Feedback using CAS

• „Flag Feedback” (Correct/Wrong)• Matching exact answers, as well as semantically equivalent

Intelligent exercises using Domain Reasoners

• „Flag Feedback” (Correct/Wrong)• Matching various correct (expert) solution paths• Error Feedback for typical errors via matching buggy-rules

Intelligent Exercises using Domain Reasoners

• Generated Next-Step hints on student’s solution path• hints with increasing level of detail• Generated Worked out solutions

Further interactive Elements

• Arbitrary external multimedia can be integrated into the system• A web2.0-based Framework allows for communication of

integrated external content with the user model

Hands-On Tasks

• Register in the System• Browse a Book• Click on Learning Objects

• Open Right Panel• Browse Metadata• Browse Related Los• Check Authorship, Copyright

• Make Bookmarks• Try to solve simple exercises to see the progress of success indicators• Wait for the Administrator to change the indicator type• Solve more exercises to see the progress indicators change in a different way• Wait for the Administrator to change the indicator type• Solve more exercises to see the progress indicators change in a different way• Use micro course generation by clicking on a button “weiteres zum thema”
