Abstract

Closed corpus AH systems demonstrate what is possible to achieve with adaptive hypermedia technologies. However, they are impractical for dealing with the large volume of open corpus resources. Our Knowledge Sea project explores social navigation support, an approach for providing open corpus personalized guidance that is based on past learners’ interaction with the system. The most recent stage of our project focuses on using annotations for social navigation support. We present here Knowledge Sea II, which implements annotation-based social navigation support, and report the results of several classroom studies, which have evaluated this technology.
