Abstract
To be able to use knowledge, learners must arrange the relationships between information as a knowledge structure. A class structure is a typical knowledge structure. The skills required to build class structures are (1) identifying the attributes of the target instance, (2) selecting attributes of the target instance on the basis of several viewpoints, and (3) describing relationships between instances hierarchically. As a first step, learners need to understand “discrimination and inheritance” in a class structure; therefore, we have previously proposed a method for learning class structure construction. To facilitate the acquisition of skills for learners to build class structures, however, they should be supported in setting a viewpoint and selecting attributes of instances on the basis on that viewpoint. In this study, we propose a learning support system for selecting several attributes of each instance in the construction of a class structure based on several viewpoints.
