Using Contexts to Personalize Educational Topic Maps

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 4018))

Abstract

In this paper we discuss the support for personalization in TM4L – an environment for building and using Topic Maps-based learning repositories. Our approach is based on the idea of using different views to access a learning collection depending on the context of its use. We propose an extension of the Topic Map model with contexts and discuss its implementation in TM4L aimed at supporting context-based personalization.
