Abstract

Information visualizations can be applied to the educational domain in order to help the students access appropriate educational resources. We present a novel adaptive visualization method that supports navigations through class materials according to the lecture topics. The map-based adaptive annotations and the relevance-based visualizations are supported in the framework. We are going to use the system in a real iSchool class and will conduct a user study in order to validate the effectiveness of the idea.
