Resumen de A method for enabling a better comprehension of user behavior
Gligor-Calin Loghin, Jean Charles Marty, Thibault Carron
The work reported here takes place in the educational domain and deals especially with the observation of pedagogical activity. User behavior is observed through the raw traces (log files) of their activity. This method raises two problems: selecting only relevant traces and retrieving a high enough level of abstraction to make these traces clearly understandable by an analyst. A unifying approach is proposed to adapt and customize the raw traces in order to facilitate their interpretation. The objective is to obtain an adequate level of abstraction of traces that can better match a particular experience. In order to accomplish this objective the model described applies successive transformations that filter the traces of interest and change their level of abstraction.
