Abstract

This paper introduces the intelligent pen metaphor, an approach to uniformly treat interaction with electronic documents, especially for marking and annotating a document. This enables an easier handling of electronic documents also for novice and inexperienced users. Interaction tasks are combined in one metaphor that is well known to the user from his or her daily work with paper documents. We also present a prototypical implementation that exploits an alternative user interface to offer additional support for these users. All information added to the document by a user is stored together with the original text allowing an easy document exchange and thus having influence on collaborative work. The main contribution of this paper is the support of interactive learning processes. This pertains to active reading as well as document navigation.
