Abstract :
In order to support users in inclusive lifelong learning scenarios, we propose a model of recommendations that applies to the particularities of these scenarios and intends to improve the learning performance. The goal of our model is threefold: (i) allow the management of recommendations at design time, (ii) explain on the user interface why each recommendation has been offered, (iii) request explicit feedback from the user to improve the recommender. In the paper we present how the user interface benefits from this model.
