Pedagogical text indexation and exploitation for language learning
In this article we present the MIRTO platform -under development at the University Stendhal of Grenoble- and how it addresses common flaws of CALL software. This platform led to another project: the creation of a pedagogically indexed text base. We introduce here the notion of pedagogical indexation, and confront the particular case of pedagogical indexation for language learning with the existing pedagogical
resource description standards, before proposing leads towards the implementation of th

NLP-based scripting for CALL activities
This article focuses on the development of Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools for Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL). After identifying the inherent limitations of NLP-free tools, we describe the general framework of Mirto, an NLP-based authoring platform under construction in our laboratory, and organized into four distinct layers: functions, scripts, activities and scenarios. Through several examples, we explain how Mirto's architecture allows to implement state-of-the-art NLP fun

Report on NLP-based CALL Workshop
This deliverable is a report on the one-day workshop on NLP-based CALL that was
organized on 13 April 2006 by the JEIRP partners as a contribution to an increased
visibility of the project and the Kaleidoscope network. The workshop’s bilingual title
was:
“Integrating Natural Language Processing and Computer-Assisted Language
Learning: current status and future prospectsâ€

From usage analysis to automatic diagnosis: The case of the learning of algebra
User modelling is a significant part of usage analysis. We present a case
study in the field of the learning of algebra that aims at producing automatic
diagnosis rules, based on the analysis of tracks of students solving algebra exercises
within the Aplusix learning environment. We present two experiments that were
conducted among 8th and 9th grade students. Manual analyses performed on the data
made it possible to contribute to the construction of a library of rules aiming at

PLQL - The ProLearn Query Language
This deliverable provides the definition of the ProLearn Query Language (PLQL), a "query language for repositories of learning objects" defined in the context of the ProLearn Network of Excellence (WP4).,Research report of the ProLearn Network of Excellence (IST 507310), Deliverable 4.6
The Aplusix-Editor: A New Kind of Software for the Learning of Algebra
The first part of the paper presents our conception of a new kind of software for helping students to learn algebra. Such software has three main characteristics. First it includes an advanced editor that allows the student to build easily algebraic expressions. Second it reifies the student's reasoning as a tree. Third it verifies the student's calculations. In the second part, we present the Aplusix-Editor, a system of that kind that we have realised, and we describe the first tests of this sy

Educational Knowledge Based Environment
In this paper a knowledge based environment is represented which facilitates easy creation and preparation of wide range of educational software. The heart of the environment is the knowledge representation tool providing a hybrid knowledge representation formalism combining frames, production rules and logic. The environment is built on the basis of the logic programming language Prolog.
WebLabs: Virtual collaborative learning experience for researchers, teachers and students
The paper presents experiences from a 3 year international project, WebLabs: New representational infrastructure for e-learning, in which researchers, teachers and young students from UK, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Sweden, Portugal and Italy participated. The project explored innovative pedagogy based on the integration of constructionist learning approach and virtual co-learning. For the purposes of the project a visual programming environment, Toon Talk, and a virtual collaborative system, Wplone, were
A Virtual Teacher Community to Facilitate
Professional Development
Information technologies revolution calls for new skills and teachers'
qualifications. In order to help secondary school education to meet the
requirements raised by the changes in information and educational
technologies, development of new curricula and supporting materials is
necessary, on the one hand, and building relevant teachers knowledge and
skills, on the other. The paper discusses the problem for supporting teachersÂ’
professional development. Building a virtual community of teachers
Computing Ontology Creation
In this paper an approach for the development of an Ontology for the domain of Computing Education is presented. This approach was applied in the FP5 IST Project DIOGENE - A Training Web Broker for ICT Professionals. I am outlining our work on the Computing Ontology creation, and am giving some guidelines and hints for further usage of the Ontology.
Data Driven User Requirements Specification in the UNITE Project
This paper describes the process of user requirements specification in UNITE
project. The main goal of the project is to develop an integrated system for
authoring and delivery of high quality eLearning activities for the secondary
school students. The UNITE system consists of three main components: 1)
Software Platform – integrating state of the art learning management systems
(LMS), content management systems (CMS), and mobile learning (mLearning)
capabilities; 2) Pedagogical Framework – s
