Abstract :
This paper presents a computational approach to understanding and predicting the behavior of Earth Science educators using an online curriculum planning tool incorporating digital library resources. It expands on prior work on understanding educators´ adoption and use of digital library resources [2] by introducing a methodology for characterizing user behaviors and understanding the trends and frequent patterns of use that are observable from these behaviors.
