Caropreso, Maria Fernanda; Inkpen, Diana; Keshtkar, Fazel; Khan, Shahzad – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2012
Natural Language Generation (NLG) systems can make data accessible in an easily digestible textual form; but using such systems requires sophisticated linguistic and sometimes even programming knowledge. We have designed and implemented an environment for creating and modifying NLG templates that requires no programming knowledge, and can operate…

Inan, Fethi A.; Flores, Raymond; Ari, Fatih; Arslan-Ari, Ismahan – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2011
The purpose of this study was to document the design and development of an adaptive system which individualizes instruction such as content, interfaces, instructional strategies, and resources dependent on two factors, namely student motivation and prior knowledge levels. Combining adaptive hypermedia methods with strategies proposed by…

Repenning, Alexander; Ioannidou, Andri; Luhn, Lisa; Daetwyler, Christof; Repenning, Nadia – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2010
Growing science apathy at the K-12 education level represents an alarming development with potentially devastating consequences at individual, societal and economic levels. Technology has been incorporated in science education without fundamentally improving test scores or student attitudes. We claim the core of the problem is how technology is…

Denning, Rebecca; Smith, Philip J. – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 1998
Describes an interactive, cooperative-learning environment, "The Biology Sleuth." Characterizes students' interactions with this system, relates the underlying design concepts and principles, and presents a rationale for the system design. Describes a series of three formative evaluations, that were critical in the maturation of the system.…
