Abstract

One of the ways in which teachers tend to 'personalise' to the needs of their students is by complementing their teaching materials with online resources. However, the current online resources are designed in such a way that only allows teachers to customise their search and not personalise. Therefore, a Personalised Search Tool for teachers called the “PoSTech” has been proposed for the iClass Project (EU funded) This paper will outline the functionality and the possible interface of such a tool designed in correspondence to the IEEE LOM standards.

Keywords

Cross-Curricular, Differentiation, Project Based Learning, Metadata, Pedagogical Vocabulary, Personalisation, Online Search, IEEE LOM.
