Abstract
In this paper we investigate the use of multiple representation
in modeling tasks. We present a system in which three representations of
learner constructed models can be used: textual, graphical, and output
representations, the latter consists of generated output from the learners’
models, the first two are representations to construct the model. The representations
are described, as well as a method for converting representations into
each other while maintaining consistency and usability of the representations.
Finally we present preliminary results of the effects of using the representations
in a collaborative modeling task. |
