This post lists some adaptation strategies (written in the LAG Adaptation Strategy Language) along with example content and demos in ADE/AHA!

ADE is a delivery platform for adaptive educational hypermedia (adaptive e-learning) which I’ve been developing as part of my PhD at the Intelligent and Adaptive Systems group at the University of Warwick.

I finished the Warwick University Dancesport website last night and it’s now live at www.warwickuniversitydancesport.co.uk

That’s the last of the University Society websites I’ve been working on this summer.

I’m on the exec as Webmaster/Photographer for the Kempo Ju Jitsu club at Warwick so one of my jobs this summer has been to redesign the club website. It went live last week at www.warwickkempojujitsu.com. Take a look!

You can download the slides from my presentation at the WPCCS 2010 today from here.

The papers from the EC-TEL 09 A3H workshop are available for download from here. Our paper (J. Scotton, S. Moebs, J. McManis and A. Cristea) was runner up in the best paper award. You can download the paper here.

To download the slides from my talk “A Case Study on Merging Strategies for Authoring QoE-based Adaptive Hypermedia” in the A3H workshop at the EC-TEL 2009 conference today, click here.

Here are the slides from the talk I gave today at the WPCCS’09 event. I used LaTex (Beamer) to create the presentation so the .tex file is available as well:

There’s a lot of people out there posting their SpeedTest.Net results so here’s mine, courtesy of the Warwick University Campus Network!

The power’s just come on after a 4th power cut in the Computer Science building in as many days. There were two on Friday while I was in the building and one just after I left. We’re not sure what the cause is or how many happened over the weekend but my suspicion is that the department is trying to get us geeks to take breaks from sitting in front of our computers 24/7!

This one lasted about 10 minutes and Jonny got stuck in the lift for the duration!

The picture is of my first shot from the 13th hole at Brailsford on the 23rd. Unfortunately my birdie putt stopped short so I could only manage par, however as that’s a rare occurrance at the moment I’m pretty happy with it!

I submitted an abstract for our annual departmental Postgraduate Colloquium event titled “Viewing and Delivering Adaptive Educational Hypermedia” last week. It’s about the program I’m currently writing at Warwick and is currently going through the review process. Providing the abstract is accepted the talk would be given on 3rd July.

Here’s the abstract in full:

Adaptive Educational Hypermedia offers a more intelligent and customised approach to the field of e-learning then the traditional linear methods. In an Adaptive Educational Hypermedia course a student’s learning experiences can be personalised using a user model which could include such information as the student’s knowledge level or learning style.
Adaptive strategies are sets of adaptive rules and once the learning material to be used in a course has been created, adaptive strategies can be applied to allow the personalisation of the course to students. This talk will describe the initial development of a software platform which imports learning content and adaptive strategies and then can display the resulting Adaptive Educational Hypermedia course to students. The software platform, called an adaptation engine, will be able to implement different types of adaptive strategies and test their suitability.
