- Welcome to Gnowledge Network! </font>
- </span></center>
- </h1><br/><br/><br/>
- <h2><font size="6px">Introduction </font></h2><br/>
- <ul><li>This site is based on a simple idea that we
- can build collaboratively a road map of knowledge by specifying the
- prerequisites of concepts, activities, experiences and statements.&nbsp; The resulting road map can be used as a&nbsp; scaffolding to describe each node network by linking the node to other nodes in terms of relations and attributes.
- <br/>
- </li>
- <li>Look at <a href="http://atlas.gnowledge.org/Data/display/12675_depmap.svg" class="external-link">this map to get an idea of a dependency map based on prerequisites.</a></li>
- <li>Look at this one to get an idea of how a node can be described as a map (Link required??). <br></li>
- <li>You will agree that such maps will be very useful to teachers and
- students. Over a period of time, with your collaboration, we can build a
- complete roadmap of all knowledge which will help to generate a non-linear curriculum framework.</li>
- <li>Read <a href="http://atlas.gnowledge.org/help">Help Document</a> to begin contributing.</li>
- </ul>
- <br/><br/><br/>
-
- <h2><font size="6px">What you can do?</font></h2><br/>
- <ul><li>You can specify the prerequisites for any concept or an activity
- at this site. Or view the existing prerequisites that are already
- defined by the community. <br>
- </li>
- <li>We simply add a concept as a
- node (if it does not exist already) and specify a semantic dependency
- (meaning dependency) relation between one node and another.</li>
- <li>Ask yourself the following set of questions:</li>
- <ul><li>To understand a concept what do you expect the learner must already know?</li>
- <li>To understand a concept what do you expect the learner must do?</li>
- <li>To impart a skill what what other activities the learner must do?</li><li>To impart a skill what other concepts the learner must already know?</li></ul>
- </ul>
- <p>Answers to these questions can be specified in this community portal by establishing links between concepts and activities.</p>
- <br/><br/><br/>
- <h2><font size="6px">What we will get out of this?</font></h2><br/>
- <ul><li>a globally useful resource for teachers and students to know the learning track (learning path) for any concept or skill. <br></li>
- <li>teachers and authors of textbooks can use these maps to prepare course materials or sequence their curriculum.</li>
- <li>students get to know what they need to know in order to learn something.</li><li>researchers can use the data for analyzing the properties of knowledge structures.<br></li>
- <li>a network of concepts and activities that can be used, modified, published and shared by the entire community.</li><li>a visual map of knowledge and a road map for learning and teaching.</li>
- <li>a knowledge base that can be used to profile different domains of knowledge.</li><li>the
- resulting map will show us, as it were, the 'cities' (on which we
- depend on most), 'towns' (on which we depend but not as much as the
- cities), 'villages' (on which we depend least), continents (domains that
- contain inter-related cities, towns and villages), etc. <br></li><li>a sequence to automatically guide learners in a machine guided online tutoring system, for example.</li>
- <li>a
- network analysis linking the number of nodes and links, plots,
- analyses, statistics, distribution properties etc. (very soon as the
- data set increases, we will publish the results on this site.&nbsp; You can access the data dumps (sans privacy information) very soon, so that you can analyze the data yourself.)<br></li>
- <li>and we are sure it will have many other uses as well.&nbsp; If you foresee some please discuss with us in the list community@gnowledge.org.&nbsp; Or write or upload a document in the sandbox fodler (follow the link) and send us an email in the list.<br></li></ul>
- <br/><br/><br/>
- <h2><font size="6px">Yes! You do not have to write essays here.</font></h2><br/>
- <ul><li>We can get all the above mentioned goodies without writing any
- essays or do so much of research. We do not define concepts either! Just
- ask yourself the questions mentioned above and provide the answer if
- you have them. We simply make the dependency relations explicit for all
- concepts that all of us know. Soon we will be able to do this in all
- languages of the world (Our software developers are working on this.).</li></ul>
- <br/><br/><br/>
- <h2><font size="6px">So, how to get it going? </font></h2><br/>
- <ol><li>Join as a member. Use the join link on the right corner of the site.<br></li>
- <li>Use the 'Login' link if you are already a member.<br></li>
- <li>Search for a concept or activity using the search form present on the right side of the header or the "<a href="http://localhost:8081/depmap/viewall?val=1">view or edit</a>"
- link. (We started this site recently and data set is very small, so
- don't be surprised if your favorite concepts and activities are not
- found here.)<br></li>
- <li>Add a non-existing node. By default it will be
- taken as a concept, but if you want it to be an activity, use the check
- box. If a node already exists, you will see a message: "Object already
- exists". Then you can visit that node and then decide what more you can
- do. <br></li>
- <li>Then add appropriate dependency links. For adding
- dependency link, click on the "Add" button below the relation names
- "Depends on" or its inverse name "Required for".</li>
- <li>If you think
- that the existing relation is not accurate, you can remove the link
- using the "Delete" tab. Or discuss in the mailing list on the issue and
- resolve the conflict.<br></li>
- <li>Remember! You cannot add a relation
- unless a concept node already exists. So, if you don't find the node
- you are looking for, add one and link it.<br></li>
- <li>Remember, all of
- us are making only one single map collaboratively. All contributions
- are recorded against your login name with date and time of contribution.
- <br></li>
- <li>Please see below the ownership and license information to know who owns the data made by you.</li></ol>
-
- <br/><br/><br/>
- <h2><font size="6px">Spread the word around the world! </font></h2><br/>
- <ul><li>Well! The site is meant for you. We made this simplest web
- application so that the whole world gets the benefit. The outcome of
- this simplest exercise will be a very useful semantic dependency map for
- learning and teaching any topic. The knowledge base built on this site
- is available for every one. For making the maps in other languages we
- have to only add translations to each node. We will soon add this
- function to have the map in all languages. However, if you want to add
- concepts in your own language, you can build them right away, and may
- add the translation links latter when the feature is made available.<br></li></ul>

- <h2><font size="6px">We are slowly adding more features!</font></h2><br/>
- <p>After depMap (dependency map) we will soon have other kinds of maps as follows:</p>
- <ul><li>typeMap (what is a type of what, what is a sub-type of what) for taxonomy<br></li>
- <li>partMap (what is a part of what, and what consists of what) for part-whole relation<br></li>
- <li>reactionMap (what is a product of what, and what is a reactant of what) for how matter changes<br></li>
- <li>causeMap (what is a cause of what, and what is an effect of what) for cause-effect map<br></li>
- <li>testsMap (what is a preTest and what is a postTest of each node in the map) for assessment<br></li>
- <li>and so on. If you have another good suggestion tell us, we will try to add that in future.&nbsp; So, write to us or upload your suggestion in the sandbox (you need to register to do this.).<br></li></ul>
- <br/><br/><br/>
- <h2><font size="6px">Tell us if you have any feedback!</font></h2><br/>
- <ul><li>We will make improvements to the user interface to make the
- process easy. If you have good ideas you can tell us, or if you have
- skills or willing to contribute you can collaborate in building the
- software of this portal as well.&nbsp; If you know how to help us build the site, you are welcome.&nbsp; Send us
- a patch and if it works and gels with the rest of the site your
- contribution will be in.<br></li></ul>
