In practical terms, the goal is the development of tools for creating reusable, granular, durable, and interoperable Learning Objects (LO), and to compose such objects into meaningful courseware pieces. Several LO development tools require special technical skills in the instructors to exploit reuse and customization features. In addition, the absence of study of the learner's characteristics in the LO authoring process leads sometimes to produce learning materials that don't meet learners' needs and preferences. In this paper, we explore a new way to reuse and personalization based on two principles. First, we have applied product linebased document engineering tools to create the so-called Learning Object Authoring Tool (LOAT), which supports the development and the personalization of learning materials following the Cisco's Reusable Information Object strategy. And second, we used ontologies to provide instructors with extensive knowledge about the learner's characteristics and recommends materials that fits Learners' learning style to increase reuse of learning content.","PeriodicalId":134966,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT)","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128610718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Word2Vec is a powerful and one of the newest Natural Language Processing semantic models used for computing text cohesion and similarity between documents. This research considers cohesion scores in terms of the strength of the semantic relations established between two utterances, the higher the score, the stronger the similarity between two utterances. An implicit link is established based on cohesion to the most similar previous utterance, within an imposed window. Three similarity formulas were used to compute the cohesion score: an unnormalized score, a normalized score with distance and Mihalcea's formula. Our corpus of conversations incorporated explicit references provided by authors, which were used for validation. A window of 5 utterances and a 1-minute time frame provided the highest detection rate both for exact matching and matching of a block of continuous utterances belonging to the same speaker. Moreover, the unnormalized score correctly identified the largest number of implicit links.","PeriodicalId":134966,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128647985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the technology mentoring programme that was launched in the University of Tartu and to categorise the reasons why 15 university teachers who specialise in the field of education decided to take part in the technology mentoring programme, describe their expectations of the programme and describe their current teaching practices with regard to employing ICT at the start of the mentoring programme. Results indicate that the main reason for joining the programme was the teachers' wish to make learning more interesting for both themselves and their students. By joining the programme, university teachers hoped to gain more knowledge of various ways to use technology in teaching, thereby supporting students in their learning efforts. The opportunity to have systematic discussions about teaching-related topics with other participants of the technology mentoring programme was also considered an asset. At the start of the programme, the university teachers described their own experience of using ICT mainly in connection with information retrieval, content creation and communication.","PeriodicalId":134966,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT)","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131983940","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It includes three parts: (1) a series of demonstrations of training movements, (2) evaluation of user's gesture, and (3) real time feedback. We tested the feasibility of our feedback system to improve static balance ability with twelve participants. The participants learned and performed three movements and our system provided a feedback (positive or negative) simultaneously regarding their performance. The participants then tried to improve their performance based on received feedback. To test the feasibility of our feedback system, we carried out balance ability pre-test before our activity and balance ability post-test after the activity, and after that, we compared the difference among results. Our findings showed that balance ability of the participants significantly increased from the beginning of the activity to the end. This suggests that our Kinect-based feedback system is beneficial for static balance ability development. The feedback system was very useful because it provided feedback regarding the participants' performance and the participants used it to adjust their movements and postures.","PeriodicalId":134966,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132622937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the context of learning, persuade students towards following pedagogical tasks is an important role of teachers and intelligent educational environments. To accomplish persuasion, it is necessary to measure students' susceptibility to influence principles. Susceptibility to Persuasion Scale (STPS) is an instrument that can measure users' susceptibility to influence principles. Currently, STPS is validated only for the English language. Thus, this study presents the translation, cultural adaptation, and initial validation of the Brazilian Portuguese version of the STPS questionnaire. We probed into the validity and reliability of the resulting questionnaire with 582 participants. Our results indicate that the final version of our questionnaire, which contains 19-items and 6-components, has a reasonable internal consistence (Cronbach's alpha = 0.78) and can adequately identify which influence principles have more impact on user' decisions.","PeriodicalId":134966,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT)","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123374573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
