Abstract

This research focuses on users being able to inspect and manage large client side user models in a decentralised adaptive system. In particular, users should be able to scrutinise and modify which parts of their model can contribute to a partial user model that shall be made public. An ontology will be used to structure the user model, allowing users to see what can be inferred about them from this partial user model and also to serve as a basis for visualisation. This work will be evaluated in an online learning context and utilise current web standards.
