Adaptive Hypermedia

P. Brusilovsky · 2001

<p>Hypertext/hypermedia systems and user-model-based adaptive systems in the areas of learning and information retrieval have for a long time been considered as two mutually exclusive approaches to information access. Adaptive systems tailor information to the user and may guide the user in the information space to present the most relevant material, taking into account a model of the user's goals, interests and preferences. Hypermedia systems, on the other hand, are'user neutral': they provide the user with the tools and the freedom to explore an information space by browsing through a complex network of information nodes. Adaptive hypertext and hypermedia systems attempt to bridge the gap between these two approaches. Adaptation of hypermedia systems to each individual user is increasingly needed. With the growing size, complexity and heterogeneity of current hypermedia systems, such as the World Wide Web, it becomes virtually impossible to impose guidelines on authors concerning the overall organization of hypermedia information. The networks therefore become so complex and unstructured that the existing navigational tools are no longer powerful enough to provide orientation on where to search for the needed information. It is also not possible to identify appropriate pre-defined paths or subnets for users with certain goals and knowledge backgrounds since the user community of hypermedia systems is usually quite inhomogeneous. This is particularly true for Web-based applications which are expected to be used by a much greater variety of users than any earlier standalone application. A possible remedy for the negative effects of the traditional `one-size-fits-all'approach in the development of hypermedia systems is to equip them with the ability to adapt to the needs of their individual users. A possible way of achieving adaptivity is by modelling the users and tailoring the system's interactions to their goals, tasks and interests. In this sense, the notion of adaptive hypertext/hypermedia comes naturally to denote a hypertext or hypermedia system which reflects some features of the user and/or characteristics of his system usage in a user model, and utilizes this model in order to adapt various behavioural aspects of the system to the user. This book is the first comprehensive publication on adaptive hypertext and hypermedia. It is oriented towards researchers and practitioners in the fields of hypertext and hypermedia, information systems, andpersonalized systems. It is also an important resource for the numerous developers of Web-based applications. The design decisions, adaptation methods, and experience presented in this book are a unique source of ideas and techniques for developing more usable and more intelligent Web-based systems suitable for a great variety of users. The practitioners will find it important that many of the adaptation techniques presented in this book have proved to be efficient and are ready to be used in various applications. </p>

Adaptive Hypermedia through Contextualised Open Hypermedia Structures

Bailey, Christopher, Hall, Wendy, Millard, David E. et al. · ePrints Soton (University of Southampton) · 2007

The aim of this paper is to produce an alternative view of the Adaptive Hypermedia (AH) domain from a contextually aware Open Hypermedia (OH) perspective. We believe that a wide range of AH techniques can be supported with a small number of OH structures, which can be combined together to create more complex effects and could simplify the development of new AH systems. In this paper we re-examine Brusilovsky’s taxonomy of AH techniques from a structural perspective. The authors show that it is possible to identify and model common structures across the taxonomy of Adaptive techniques. An agent based adaptive hypermedia system called HA3L is presented, which uses these OH structures to provide a straightforward implementation of a variety of adaptive hypermedia techniques. This enables us to reflect on the structural equivalence of many of the techniques, demonstrate the advantages of the OH approach and can inform the design of future adaptive hypermedia systems.

Adaptive hypermedia through contextualized open hypermedia structures

Christopher Bailey, Wendy Hall, David E. Millard et al. · ACM Transactions on Information Systems · 2007

The aim of this article is to produce an alternative view of the adaptive hypermedia (AH) domain from a contextually-aware open hypermedia (OH) perspective.

In this work we reexamine Brusilovsky's taxonomy of AH techniques from a structural OH perspective.

Versioning in adaptive hypermedia

Evgeny Knutov, P.M.E. De Bra, Mykola Pechenizkiy · TU/e Research Portal · 2009

Abstract. This paper presents an approach that uses the terms, operations and methods of versioning applied to the Adaptive Hypermedia (AH) field. We show a number of examples of such a use which helps to facilitate authoring, managing, storing, maintenance, logging and analysis of AHS behaviour, providing extensive flexibility and maintainability of the systems.

Authoring of Adaptive Hypermedia

A. Cristea, Craig A. Stewart · IGI Global eBooks · 2011

This chapter focuses on the aspect of Authoring in Adaptive Hypermedia from some of its different perspectives. It starts by showing the necessity of research in this area, then describes a new framework model for authoring of Adaptive Hypermedia, LAOS. Within LAOS, the adaptation model, which is the main aspect of adaptive hypermedia, is detailed into a separate model, LAG. The flexibility offered by the LAOS framework is analyzed and estimated. To illustrate the theory, the chapter describes an implementation of this framework, MOT, and test results. The chapter ends with conclusions and discussion on future trends.Request access from your librarian to read this chapter's full text.

AHyCo - Adaptive Hypermedia Courseware

Nataša Hoić-Božić, Martina Holenko Dlab, Jasminka Ledić et al. · Repository of the University of Rijeka · 2016

Ovaj priručnik objedinjuje tekstove koji su bili objavljeni na nekadašnjem portalu u o e-učenju AHyCo (Adaptive Hypermedia Courseware). U priručniku su objavljene izvorne, nelektorirane verzije članaka s portala, napisane većinom 2005. godine. Portal je razvijen u okviru iProjekta - projekta primjene informacijske tehnologije broj 2004-119 Ministarstva znanosti, obrazovanja i športa Republike Hrvatske "Metodika nastave informatike online" voditeljice Nataše Hoić-Božić i bio je namijenjen studentima, nastavnicima i svima zainteresiranima za sadržaje iz područja e-obrazovanja (eng. e-learning). Portal je bio integriran sa sustavom za učenje AHyCo te je registriranim korisnicima omogućio pristup AHyCo e-kolegijima ili sadržajima koji su im bili dozvoljeni za učenje. Prilikom odabira sadržaja portala vodilo se računa ne samo o tehnološkim već i pedagoško-didaktičkim aspektima e-učenja te su članici o e-učenju bili grupirani u sljedeće teme: • E-learning • Učenje i poučavanje • Adaptivna ili prilagodljiva hipermedija • O AHyCo LMS • Metodika informatike. Web portal je objavljen kao ahyco.ffri.hr u okviru tadašnje Katedre za e-obrazovanje na Odsjeku za informatiku Filozofskog fakulteta u Rijeci, u suradnji sa Zavodom za primijenjeno računarstvo Fakulteta elektrotehnike i računarstva u Zagrebu. Od 2012. godine nakon osnivanja Odjela za informatiku Sveučilišta u Rijeci mijenja naziv u ahyco.uniri.hr no zbog promjene tehnologije i prelaska na novi, suvremeniji sustav za učenje Moodle, AHyCo portal prestaje s radom 2016. godine. Trenutno aktualiziranje problematike e-učenja uslijed COVID-19 pandemijske situacije potaklo je autorice da postojeće tekstove s AHyCo portala objedine i objave u ovom priručniku uz napomenu kako se nova, osuvremenjena verzija najaktualnijih članaka planira objaviti kao udžbenik "Osnove e-učenja" kako bi poslužila studentima, nastavnicima i znanstvenicima te svima zainteresiranima za detaljnije upoznavanje s temom e-učenja na sistematičan način, kao i za primjenu e-učenja u nastavi.

Provenance meets adaptive hypermedia

Evgeny Knutov, Paul De Bra, Mykola Pechenizkiy · 2010

In this paper we consider provenance modelling in Adaptive Hypermedia Systems (AHS). We revisit adaptation and data provenance questions and bring up new and complementary aspects of adaptation and provenance, showing similar and supplementing characteristics. We also scrutinize the provenance importance and issues in Adaptive Hypermedia (AH). The aim of this paper is to extend the conventional AH classification questions with the notion of data lineage which essentially plays an important role in adaptation.

An Adaptive Hypermedia System

Tomas A. Perez, Julian Gutierrez, Philippe Lopisteguy · 1995

. Hypermedia systems are information tools that allow flexible navigation through several topics. This approach is being increasingly used in educational environments. However, these systems have disadvantages: if the hyperspace is big enough (and usually it is), the users become overwhelmed by the amount of paths and topics available, and get lost in the hyperspace losing even the benefits of linear information documents. This is specially negative in education. We have joined the advantages of Intelligent Tutoring Systems and Hypermedia Systems to build HyperTutor, a hypermedia system that adapts the hyperspace available depending on the student knowledge. As long as the student acquires concepts, the hyperspace accessibility grows giving the opportunity to reach new parts of it. The system is structured in two parts: the Hypermedia Component that provides the flexibility of hypermedia features; and the Tutor Component that has knowledge about the nodes that can be presen...

Adaptive Hypermedia in Education

Vehbi Türel · IGI Global eBooks · 2017

The aim of this article is: (a) to give the definition of adaptive hypermedia (AH) and state what AH means, and (b) to explore the role of AH in education at this digital age, in which the majority of learners are generally digitally fluent and competitive (Turel 2015b, Gros et al., 2012, pp. 190-210) although some claims otherwise (Bullen, Morgan & Qayyum, 2011, pp. 1-24). Pedagogically and epistemologically, educational institutions (i.e. nursery, primary, secondary and high schools, colleges, vocational schools and colleges, life-long learning centres, adult education centres, and universities) should respond to such learning demands and differences to accommodate the digital-literate, wise and efficient learning style preferences of today's learners by providing AH learning materials for them. More frankly, educational institutions have to use and provide AH learning materials for their learners in order to be competitive in this digital age (Turel, 2014a; Türel, 2013; Duncan-Howell, 2012).
