Higher-Order Cognition in Personalised Adaptive eLearning

Abstract

In nature, the Goby fish lives in symbiosis with the burrowing shrimp; serving as a watchman in return for a place to live. Current adaptive learning systems hold an ambiguous position that attempts to compensate for real-world interaction. This paper presents a novel symbiotic-dialog approach to abstract cognitive skill training. The approach is implemented within Goby, a third-party symbiotic service that will support the acquisition of a metacognitive repertoire, within the context of a host eLearning system.
