Lavoue, Elise; George, Sebastien; Prevot, Patrick – Behaviour & Information Technology, 2012
In this article, we present a co-adaptive design approach named TE-Cap (Tutoring Experience Capitalisation) that we applied for the development of an assistance environment for tutors. Since tasks assigned to tutors in educational contexts are not well defined, we are developing an environment which responds to needs which are not precisely…
