          Help in Moodle
    Michael O’Mahony - Clarity Centre, UCD
       Mark Melia – Enovation Solutions
Context – Percolate Project
• e-Learning Industry working with academic
  researchers
• Industry defined challenging use cases
• Challenge is to apply research to use case
• Third level use case – helping students with
  problems
Industry                    Academia
The Problem
• Students working online needs help
• Finding wood from trees difficult on WWW

• I need help with X now!
  – Understand subject
  – Pedagogically sound
  – Personalised to me


                             photo by London College of Fashion
The Problem
• NDLR (DSpace) Moodle search

• One size fits all
• Celebrate individuality
  – Prior knowledge
  – Type of resources
  – Course context
Recommender system
• Hooks Moodle into a learning resource
  repository
• Search understands what peers found useful
• Search understands the conceptual structure
  of subject
• Uses conceptual structure to understand
  learners needs
• Results organised according to a pedagogical
  strategy
Software Testing
How does it work?
• Semantic search
  – Based on conceptual structure of subject area
• Social search
  – Based on whether “similar” learners found a
    resource useful
• Composition engine
  – Compose resources from search into learning
    episode
User Trial
                       DCU Trial

• 18 DCU 4th year Mechanical Engineering students
• 6 week trial (complete)
• Students used application in the context of the
  following assignment:

      “You are a process engineer for a multi-international
      institution that wishes to introduce an advanced
      manufacturing technology for one of their new advanced
      material based products…”
User Trial
                              DCU Trial
• 527 completed search sessions
• 419 results selected (130 distinct results)
• User feedback:
     – 36 results rated or tagged
     – 34 post-confidence scores for concepts
                                   “A wider range of information needs to be
“Good system, still in its early     uploaded in order for it to accomodate
    stages” [Student A]             the academic objectives of the materials
                                              module” [Student B]
Next Steps
•   Percolate  LTC
•   Better UI
•   Manual effort
•   Non-intrusive methods of gaining info
