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 system, Knowledge Sea II, presented in this paper explores social adaptive navigation support, an approach for providing personalized guidance in the open corpus context. Following the ideas of social navigation, we have attempted to organize a personalized navigation support that is based on past learners’ interaction with the system. The social adaptive navigation support implemented in our system was considered quite useful by students participating in the classroom study of Knowledge Sea II. At the same time, some user comments indicated the need to provide more powerful navigation support.
