چکیده

Concept mapping is a technique for externalising a conceptualisation in terms of a visual two dimensional layout which shows the propositions believed by the learner as well as other similarity and hierarchy relationships. In this paper, we describe VCM, the verified concept mapper. It is a novel form of concept mapping designed to elicit a learner’s understanding, as a basis for building a learner model. We describe the display of the learner model as an aid to reflection. We report an early evaluation of the system and the ways that it has informed our understanding of the need for incremental modelling and reflection steps.

Verified Concept Mapping for Eliciting Conceptual Understanding

Concept mapping is a valuable technique for education evaluation. This paper describes a system which supports teachers in creating concept mapping tasks which are intended to capture the student’s understanding of the ontology of a small domain. A novel feature of our work is that the system verifies that the student intended the map elements that will be used to infer student understanding an...

3D Modelling of Under Ground Burried Objects Based on Ground Penetration Radar

There is a growing demand for mapping and 3D modelling of buried objects such as pipelines, agricultural hetitage, landmines and other buried objects. Usually, large scale and high resolution maps from these objects are needed. Manually map generation and modeling of these objects are cost and time consuming and is dependent on lots of resources. Therefore, automating the subsurface mapping and...

Formal concept analysis for modelling students in a technology-enhanced learning setting

We suggest the Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) as theoretical backbone in technology-enhanced learning settings to support a students ́ learning process in two ways: i) by engaging with concept lattices, the structure of the knowledge domain and the interrelations of its concepts become explicit, and ii) by providing visual feedback in form of open learner modelling, the student ́s reflection on th...
