Embodiment Construction

[0049] A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides an adaptive educational system for language learning, especially vocabulary learning. The system operates when a user performs an individual task such as reading a text or book. Preferably, the task is a real task that the user would independently choose to perform anyway, one not designed solely to support adaptive learning methods; the concept of a "real task" will be discussed in more detail below. The system can accommodate the user's growing knowledge of vocabulary by tracking the user's interactions with learning objects in the context of reading a text or book. Each time a user selects a word or phrase in a text or book, the system determines what learning objects will best advance the user's knowledge of that word or phrase. This learning object provides information, explanations, hints, short activities, or instructional guides about word knowledge covering various aspects of lexical knowledge, which may...

Abstract

A computer-implemented adaptive learning method is disclosed. The method is intended for performance within the context of a task being carried out by a user. At least one of a sequence of elements presented to the user as part of the task is designated as a learning item. A learning object is selected in dependence upon the designated learning item, information relating to previous performance of the learning method in relation to the user, and a predetermined scheme devised to manage an overall learning process for the user. Presentation of the selected learning object to the user is intended to advance the user's knowledge of the designated learning item in some way. Once the learning object has been presented to the user, the information is updated in dependence upon the presented learning object and / or how the user interacts with or responds to the presented learning object.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a computer-implemented learning method and device. The present invention is applicable to learning any subject or skill, and is particularly, but not exclusively, applicable to language learning. Background technique [0002] Learning a specific skill, content, or body of knowledge is often a long-term process that can take many years. For example, in the case of learning a language, knowledge about words is accumulated over time through conscious learning, practice, and through chance encounters, eg, in reading and conversation. [0003] Recent learning theories emphasize the need to learn through activities other than the use of deliberate learning and practice. These theories claim that learning is more efficient and motivating in the context of meaningful task-based activities (so-called contextualization) and when using real rather than artificial content. In theory, a skill can be learned more efficiently when ...
