Intelligent Exploration System - An Approach for User-Centered Exploratory Learning

  • 1. Fraunhofer-Institute for Computer Graphics Research (IGD)

Description

The following paper describes the conceptual design of an Intelligent Exploration System (IES) that offers a user-adapted graphical environment of web-based knowledge repositories, to support and optimize the explorative learning. The paper starts with a short definition of learning by exploring and introduces the Intelligent Tutoring System and Semantic Technologies for developing such an Intelligent Exploration System. The IES itself will be described with a short overview of existing learner or user analysis methods, visualization techniques for exploring knowledge with semantics technology and the explanation of the characteristics of adaptation to offer a more efficient learning environment.
