This paper explores the exploration of a lesser known effect of adaptive annotation, its ability to significantly increase students’ motivation to work with non-mandatory educational content and confirmed its significance in the context of two different adaptive hypermedia systems.
Abstract
Adaptive link annotation is a popular adaptive navigation support technology. Empirical studies of adaptive annotation in the educational context have demonstrated that it can help students to acquire knowledge faster, improve learning outcomes, reduce navigational overhead, and encourage non-sequential navigation. In this paper, we present our exploration of a lesser known effect of adaptive annotation, its ability to significantly increase students' motivation to work with non-mandatory educational content. We explored this effect and confirmed its significance in the context of two different adaptive hypermedia systems. The paper presents and discusses the results of our work.

ELM-ART: An Adaptive Versatile System for Web-Based Instruction
550 Citations2001Gerhard Weber, Peter Brusilovsky
It is argued that versatility is an important feature of successful Web-based education systems and ELM-ART, an intelligent interactive educational system to support learning programming in LISP, demonstrates how some interactive and adaptive educational component can be implemented in WWW context and how multiple components can be naturally integrated together in a single system.

185 Citations2003Peter Brusilovsky
It is argued that more empirical studies are required to help the developers of adaptive hyper media systems in selecting most relevant adaptation technologies, and attempts to build a case for meta-adaptive hypermedia systems, ie, systems that are able to adapt the very adaptation technology to the given user and context.
Adaptation in Open Corpus Hypermedia
169 Citations2001Nicola Henze, Wolfgang Nejdl
The proposed system is based on an indexing concept for various information resources and a Bayesian Network engine for calculating estimations on a user's changing knowledge and implements constructivist teaching approaches, establishes conceptual models for designing courses and enables guided tours, intelligent example retrieval and further adaptive navigation support.
