Open Educational Hypermedia Systems: An n-dimensional framework for User Profile Interchange

摘要

Increasingly Educational Hypermedia Systems (EHSs) are using the World Wide Web (WWW) as the medium of delivery. Many of these systems use methods and techniques from Adaptive Hypermedia Systems. This paper focuses on the interchange of information about the student's knowledge between EHSs over the WWW. A conceptual framework based on a 4-dimensional representation is introduced A proposed implementation of this conceptual framework within the extensible Markup Language (XML) is described. The paper concludes with a brief summary of future work.
