Use and Trust of Simple Independent Open Learner Models to Support Learning within and across Courses
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces two independent open learner models (learner models that are accessible to user viewing), which are deployed alongside university courses to facilitate self-assessment skills, planning and independent learning. OLMlets is used in specific courses, while UK-SpecIAL, a modular extension to OLMlets, draws on the OLMlets learner models to display progress towards achieving learning outcomes applicable across courses. User logs demonstrate usage of each system, and questionnaire responses provide insight into the reasons for user trust in the environments.

متن کاملInvestigating Learner Trust in Adaptive Learning Systems
Open learner models (OLM) is an adaptive learning system that externalise the learner model contents to the user. OLMs assist learners in tracking their knowledge, and promote independent learning by offering information about their knowledge that the learner would not usually see (e.g. a breakdown of concept understanding or descriptions of misconceptions held) which may allow learners to iden...
