This study critically reviews the recently published scientific literature on the design and impact of adaptive and intelligent systems for collaborative learning support (AICLS) systems. The focus is threefold: 1) analyze critical design issues of AICLS systems and organize them under a unifying classification scheme, 2) present research evidence on the impact of these systems on student learning,...
Introducing electronic collaboration (e-collaboration) is not a matter of introducing new software, but it is a matter of introducing new, and if applied correctly, more efficient working processes and methods (i.e., e-collaboration capability). As a first step before introducing a collaboration technology, managers should comprehensively examine their organization's underlying capability. Accordingly,...
This paper investigates how online travel can benefit from serving Millennials with collaboration support. We test whether the decision support of online shopping in pairs, connected by screen sharing technology, contributes to a greater intent to purchase vacation travel. We conducted a field experiment with 150 subjects. A Partial Least Squares analysis of Collaboration, Ease of Use, Trust, and...
Extensible Personal Learning Environments (PLEs) and Cloud Learning Environments (CLEs) that facilitate the lone or collaborative study of user-chosen blends of content and courses from heterogeneous sources, including Open Educational Resources (OERs), are gradually gaining ground in the landscape of distance learning. In this paper, we examine the use of ontologies for modelling and supporting learner...
Adaptive Educational Hypermedia systems (AEH) enhance learning by adaptation and personalisation. As a consequence, wide ranging knowledge and learning content are needed. Problems then emerge in the provision of suitable authoring tools to carry out the authoring process which is complex and time consuming. Based on the fact that former research studies on authoring have identified drawbacks in collaboration,...
CeLS is a web-based system designed to enable teachers and researchers to create, enact and test multi-stage CSCL scripts in actual educational settings. The paper presents CeLS approach and potential for adaptive collaboration scripting, aimed to tailor the activity according to students' performance, personal characteristics and preferences. We specifically focus on two aspects: 'on the fly' adaptations...
Starting from two industrial collaborative engineering cases, the paper introduces the concept of task patterns for support of fast and flexible product design in networked manufacturing enterprises. Task patterns are reusable models of enterprise knowledge capturing best practices for typical collaboratively performed design tasks. Furthermore, the main elements of a Web-based collaboration infrastructure...
This paper presents our work on netUniversity web portal, an easy and competitive solution dedicated to the creation and management of pedagogical online content. netUniversity provides a wide diversity of pedagogical models based on IMS-LD, which offers the best adaptation of courses to the chosen pedagogy and learning style. Our tool gives teachers the possibility to edit their own pedagogical scenarios...
This paper presents an approach to predict userpsilas interests in Web-based educational systems, using the collaborative filtering methods weighted by implicit information about userpsilas navigation. To test and evaluate the proposed approach, we used a particular case study. The values were obtained by a domain specialist and we compared the approach results using a cross-validation method. The...
This paper presents an adaptive collaborative filtering algorithm to help users of online reputation systems avoid the misleading of dishonest ratings. This algorithm evaluates the trustworthiness of ratings by comparing the raterspsila opinions with the opinions of the evaluator, and gives the ratings proper weights before including them into the final judgment. Different weighting functions are...
