In this article we present an infrastructure for creating mash up visual representations of the user profile that combines data from different sources. We explored this approach in the context of Life Long Learning, where different platforms or services are often used to support the learning process. The system is highly configurable and adaptive: data sources, data aggregations, and visualizations...
In adaptive learning environments, this exchange of online presence data cannot be considered isolated from the overall learning context. However, there is yet no systematic solution to exchanging and integrating online presence data from diverse instant messaging and social networking applications. To address this issue, we propose an ontology-based approach to sharing online presence data in adaptive...
Runesinger is a demo of a PC videogame to speak and spell Korean. The player practices a few nouns and verbs by serving food to hungry villagers during a North Korean famine. Inspired by melodic intonation therapy, the player sings a jingle. On each musical note, a ball bounces on an iconic syllable. Through a spelling puzzle, the player composes each syllable in Hangul, which is the phonetic alphabet...
Sketching user interface and virtual reality (VR) techniques to education application has become popular, promising to make the teaching and learning experience more natural and efficient for users. The adaptive support can improve the intelligence during the interaction process between user and systems to emphasize the individual needs. In this paper, we present the sketching user interface for geometry...
With the massive use of the Web, numerous sites proposing exercises have appeared. The great difficulty for teachers and students is to find suitable exercises for the discovery of a new subject, training, revision or evaluation. On the basis of the teachers' reflections, on how they determine the exercises which they need, we extracted the characteristics which seemed to us the most important and...
Most of the online courses nowadays are offered mainly in asynchronous mode, enabling students with the freedom of time and distance. Nonetheless, the drop-out rate for online courses is high. With online synchronous instruction students have both freedom of distance and punctuality of regular progress and the drop-out rate is found to be greatly reduced. However, there is a lack of online synchronous...
This paper reports on results from a pilot study that used Bloompsilas taxonomy to observe cognition levels during software inspections conducted by undergraduate computer science and software engineering students. Cognition levels associated with three different code inspection techniques were investigated. These were the ad hoc, abstraction driven, and checklist-based reading strategies. Higher...
This paper deals with the remote access to an Integrated Circuits (ICs) Automated Test Equipment (ATE) for both educational and engineering purposes. This experience was initiated in 1998 in the context of a French network (CNFM) in order to provide a distant control to industrial equipment to academic and industrial people. The actual shared resource is a Verigy V93K System-on-Chip (SoC) tester platform...
