4 February 2010
The LTfLL project is partially supported/co-funded by the European Union under the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) theme of the 7th Framework Programme for R&D
Set of Tools
Addressing two areas of TEL:- help people learn- help tutors/teachers support learners
Three Themes
Positioning the learnerFeedback SupportKnowledge retrieval and sharing
Tutor/Learner support not fully automated system
Innovative New DesignsCreate next-generation support and advice services for
individual and collaborative learning using language technologies (LSA, NLP, etc)
Personalised Services
Individual feedback and support
Different Languages
Language corpora
Personal Learning Environment
Mash-up PLEWidgets to mix and match
Fitness for PurposeAnalysing stakeholder needsValidation loops and pilots
Scenario-Based Design
Real problems
Practical solutions

ServicesPositioning the learner• Accreditation of Prior Learning, Position in Curriculum• Feedback on the conceptual development of the learnerFeedback Support• Feedback and assessing the contribution of learners in online discussions• Supporting individuals in their understanding through reading texts and
making summariesKnowledge retrieval and sharing• Supporting teachers in finding online resources to design courses• Supporting knowledge discovery through semantic searches and ontologies • Knowledge discovery through finding relevant expertise (either of teachers
or peers) in learning networks
Positioning the Learner
Accreditation of Prior Learning in formal learning
Matching learner’s evidences with course content
Positioning the LearnerProblem-based learning – workplace learning
Give formative feedback on conceptual development of learner Benefit for individual learner (coverage of domain concepts and
comparison with peer group) Benefit for tutor (recognition of individual coverage, assist in personal
feedback. Identify topics missed by group as a whole)
Feedback Support
Use of social media in formal learning
Provide more feedback (through analyses and information) on the interactions on chat and forums between learners, to the tutor and learner.
Feedback Support
Learners’ reading and writing
Live feedback on summary-writing by the learner
Knowledge Retrieval and Sharing
Creating Learning Resources
Semantic, text and ontology-based searches can identify suitable learning objects (enhancing received quality)
Knowledge Retrieval and Sharing
Creating Learning Resources with input of network
Enhance formal ontologies with informal folksonomies and tags to extend search, incl. visualisation of related concepts.
Finding relevant expertise (teacher or peers) within networks that the person knows, crawling the user’s networks (friends, FOAFs).
Hands-on Task
Identify challenges to the potential adoption of the tools for teachers, lifelong learners, institutions
Identify added-value integration possibilities between two or more tools
