Abstract :
In the next generation of learning environment, a tablet PC with a stylus pen can be a learning tool. In this paper, a framework for learner centered question generation on the tablet PC is proposed. The framework is based on a learner´s actions and context of an expository text. In assisting active learning, three different types of questions can be generated according to the learner´s marking actions. Some associated questions can also be generated based on the type of a question. The generated questions will promote active learning by motivating further self-questionings and markings.
