Values Impacting the Design of an Adaptive Educational Storybook

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 7069))

Abstract

We present an adaptive educational narrative that combines an interactive storybook with drama management. By understanding our underlying value system, we are able to create an adaptive narrative that provides features adequate for the target context. Our value system and design needs invite a reexamination and reapplication of interactive storytelling systems, and results in an adaptive narrative framework that is both feasible and extensible to a wide range of experiences.
