The Second Workshop on Natural Language Processing in Support of
Learning: Metrics, Feedback and Connectivity Call for Papers

Link: http://k-teams.cs.pub.ro/~nlpsl
Organized under the FP7 LTfLL Project (http://www.ltfll-project.org/)
September 14th 2010, Bucharest, ROMANIA

Aims: The purpose of this workshop is to focus on using language
technologies in support of learning and teaching - by trying to
identify what questions and problems are solved, but also to raise and
discuss how well the metrics and algorithms developed assist in the
provision of support and the construction of feedback for
learning. What are the most efficient ways? To what extent do they
match distances inferred by a teacher's assessments? The workshop
addresses the problem of how support can be provided and feedback be
generated in order to help students learn and teachers to assess their
progress. Several Natural Language Processing techniques like Latent
Semantic Analysis (LSA) or the use of semantic and pragmatic analysis
of conversations have been successfully deployed in various
educational applications to enrich learning and teaching with
information technology. However, few research approaches considered
also in detail the problem of providing feedback.
