AbstractDeutsch: Die Vorlesung wird sich u.a. mit damit befassen, welche Bestandteile und Technologien für intelligente Lehr- und Lernsysteme erforderlich sind. Es werden existierende Technologien und Systeme untersucht, u.a. das ActiveMath system, das an der UdS und dem DFKI entwickelt wurde. Darüber hinaus wird untersucht, wann und wie intelligente Lehr- und Lernsoftware bessere Lern-Möglichkeiten bietet als traditionelle Lehrbücher. In einem Projekt werden Sie einfache Komponenten implementieren und evaluieren. English: The course introduces and discusses the components and technologies needed for implementing intelligent tutoring systems. It describes and compares several existing systems as well as the underlying principles and technologies, among them the ActiveMath system developed at university of Saarland and DFKI. Students will use ActiveMath and can evaluate their log data. The course also targets the question under which (system and media) conditions online learning is useful. The course will be widely interactive. Moreover, in a project the participants will implement/evaluate simple components of educational systems. Topics
ScheduleDeadlines for OMDoc encoding of the lecture script: 28.02.2007
PrerequisitesIt is helpful to have the following skill, but you can also learn it during the term on your own.
Possible follow-up activitiesWe regularly organize seminars on Education Technologies. Morever, you can make your bachelor and master theses. Have a look at our web page or get in contact with us. Helpful literatureThese books and links are only recommendations. You do not need to buy them since they are present in the computer science library. Furthermore, we will mostly work with mathematical content which is provided online by the learning environment ActiveMath.
Beware: The organisation description is preliminary.
OrganisationTo get a certificate, you have to attend the lecture, to author one lecture script in OMDoc format so that it can be presented in ActiveMath, and to deliver a project.Script WritingMaybe some of you came across lectures in which you were grouped such that each group was to write a script of a lecture session in LaTeX. In our lecture, we ask you to author one lecture. That is, you'll have to write content for ActiveMath by using the semantic OMDoc representation after you attended the lecture. This way, you learn a fundamental ingredient of the artificial intelligence behind intelligent tutoring and technology enhanced systems, namely knowledge representation. The content will be provided to you in form of slides. We recommend to make some notes during each session. In case of questions refer to the lecturer. ProjectsProjects are programming exercises. We will introduce a list of projects in the beginning of the lecture. You are to deliver your project work at the end of term. Delivery includes code, a demo, and a short report written and presented in one of the last lecture slots. You can work in a group of three students in a project. |
