Ahmad, Faisal, Chica, Sebastian de la, Butcher, Kirsten, Sumner, Tamara and Martin, James H. (2007): Towards automatic conceptual personalization tools. In: JCDL07: Proceedings of the 7th ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2007. pp. 452-461. Available online

“This paper describes the results of a study designed to validate the use of domain competency models to diagnose student scientific misconceptions and to generate personalized instruction plans using digital libraries. Digital library resources provided the content base for human experts to construct a domain competency model for earthquakes and plate tectonics encoded as a knowledge map. The experts then assessed student essays using comparisons against the constructed domain competency model and prepared personalized instruction plans using the competency model and digital library resources. The results from this study indicate that domain competency models generated from select digital library resources may provide the desired degree of content coverage to support both automated diagnosis and personalized instruction in the context of nationally-recognized science learning goals. These findings serve to inform the design of personalized instruction tools for digital libraries.”

Gu, Qianyi, Sumner, Tamara, Bhushan, Sonal and Ahmad, Faisal (2004): Dynamically generating conceptual browsing interfaces for digital libraries. In: JCDL04: Proceedings of the 4th ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2004. p. 391. Available online

“A system is described that supports the dynamic generation of conceptual browsing interfaces. These interfaces are comprised of interacting visual components that contain different views onto a concept space that can be modeled as nodes and links. This algorithm uses a combined approach of tree-based processing with a grid-based drawing system to automatically generate the visual components. This algorithm is part of a larger digital library service, the NSDL Strand Map Service, which aims to provide educators and learners with conceptual browsing interfaces that help them to locate and use learning resources in educational digital libraries.”

Sumner, Tamara, Bhushan, Sonal, Ahmad, Faisal and Gu, Qianyi (2003): Designing a language for creating conceptual browsing interfaces for digital libraries. In: JCDL03: Proceedings of the 3rd ACM/IEEE-CS Joint Conference on Digital Libraries 2003. pp. 258-260. Available online

“Conceptual browsing interfaces can help educators and learners to locate and use learning resources in educational digital libraries; in particular, resources that are aligned with nationally-recognized learning goals. Towards this end, we are developing a Strand Map Library Service, based on the maps published by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). This service includes two public interfaces: (1) a graphical user interface for use by teachers and learners and (2) a programmatic interface that enables developers to construct conceptual browsing interfaces using dynamically generated components. Here, we describe our iterative, rapid prototyping design methodology, and the initial round of language type components that have been implemented and evaluated.”

“ Computer programs emerge as the outcome of complex human processes of cognition, communication and negotiation, which serve to establish the meaningful embedding of the computer system in its intended use context. ”
