A Need for an Adaptive Search Tool for Teachers: Case Study
Seyedarabi, Faezeh; Seyedarabi, Arefeh
Journal on School Educational Technology, v1 n1 p40-47 Jun-Aug 2005
Whether intentionally or not, teachers are excluded from having the full benefit of the new technologies developed and adapted by the search engine developers, while all the current and proposed research and developments are focused mainly on the end users (students/learners, businesses and/the government) and not specifically on teachers who act as the mediator between information and their students. Consequently teachers are left searching in isolation, without the assistance and guidance of the adaptive search engines. Therefore, in connection with iClass project an adaptive search tool called the "Teachers Search Tool" has been proposed. The "Teachers Search Tool" will be aimed at addressing some of the main problems faced by teachers when preparing their teaching materials like when searching online for "Cross Curricula", "Differentiated" and "Project-based Learning" materials.
