Abstract

The increasing availability of digital learning resources on the Web is changing the nature of information retrieval (IR) in education. Educators and learners are often faced with two challenges in selecting appropriate online learning resources: the sheer number of learning resources and the variety of educational quality among them. This chapter provides an examination of the current approaches employed to improve the quality of learning resources, which include the current state of the field and typical evaluation approaches adopted in major learning resource repositories. The impact of Web 2.0 and social bookmarking on learning resource evaluation is also considered. A recommender system that uses an ontology-mapping approach is examined and consideration given as to how it can facilitate learning resource evaluation across diverse communities of practice and cultures.
