Demands of Modern PLEs and the ROLE Approach

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNPSE,volume 6383))

Abstract

We present basic concepts and an outlook on current approaches and techniques of personal learning environments to point out their demands, focussing on recommendations in self-regulated learning scenarios as a major basic functionality of PLEs. In the context of the ROLE project, we explain how we plan to meet these demands by using user observations stored in the format of the contextualized attention metadata schema.
