- 10. User profile - signals Roberto Turrin Personaliza0on Challenges in E-Learning What I know What I am interested in Consuming a resource What I am interested in Educa4onStandard The activities done by the user affect his skills. In fact, as I study a change my knowledge, I learn more about a topic, I increase my understanding, I enable myself to learn something more complex on the same topic. Since skills are part of my profile, I practically change my profile. We can so say that use profile in education really changes over time Watching/discovering a new kind of movie might modify my interests

- 16. User raPngs Roberto Turrin Personaliza0on Challenges in E-Learning User ra+ngs not par+cularly useful for the recommender: • They are rare. Most of user signals are implicit. • They are more related to the quality of the resource than to the interest of the user or to their uPlity for the user goal. • They are more useful for the content producer than for the user as they represent a feedback for the content. In fact, there is a high correlaPon between the raPng mean and the number of negaPve and posiPve comments.
- 17. Algorithms User profile transparency is o^en a requirement: • the user profile represents the current user skills • the user is curious about “himself” Roberto Turrin Personaliza0on Challenges in E-Learning Experiments with pure collabora0ve did not succeed • not aligned with the user learning task • a lot of new content ? • Currently, a hybrid is being used • Working on embedding learning tasks through an ontology.
- 18. Other peculiariPes of on-line training: open points Lack of a physical class: • social features • forum • pair-tasks Roberto Turrin Personaliza0on Challenges in E-Learning User recommendaPons Time constraints: • user learning pace • user deadlines • resource Pming • resource Pme availability Planning
- 19. Conclusions Roberto Turrin Personaliza0on Challenges in E-Learning • Learning goals drive most of user consumpPons. • User profile also represents skills. • The main user goal can be translated into “changing my skills”, i.e., changing my profile. • Consequently, • profile conPnuously changes over Pme. • profile is something the user is interested into. • Use carefully raPngs and collaboraPve filtering
