SUO Group,
I am still working my way through the archives at:
<http://ltsc.ieee.org/suo/>
<http://ltsc.ieee.org/logs/suo/>
and the record of votes and comments at:
<http://ltsc.ieee.org/records/suo-votes-2000-07-26.htm>
but I have not seen much mention of the "Educational Applications"
topic, except for the rather tentative and far-afield suggestion
that it might be a tad "far-fetched" (you know who you are, MW).
Is this still, or currently, an active issue, or do people think
that it belongs to another phase of work?
It occurs to me that there is ample room for potential interactions
between the topic of "learner models", that is, the models that the
prospective "educational module" (EM => e-lecture-motive?) of the
SUO system will maintain of learners, in both their generic and
their particular aspects, and the topic of "learning models" for
the whole SUO system itself, in other words, the way that it will
adapt, bootstrap, change, develop, evolve, grow, or learn over time.
So, what do others think?
Jon
