Visualisation of learning ontologies

摘要

This paper describes a novel system designed to build scrutable student models from minimal information about the student. It uses MECURIO, our tool for automatic generation of ontologies from online sources. The system takes a simple statement of the student's knowledge or interest in a topic. It uses the ontology to generate a larger set of components for the student model. The student is then able to scrutinise these inferences with a visualisation tool, VIUM.
