Resumen
The proposal X5gon stands for easily implemented freely available innovative technology elements converging
currently scattered Open Educational Resources (OER) available in various modalities across Europe and the globe.
X5gon combines content understanding, user modelling quality assurance methods and tools to boost a homogenous
network of (OER) sites and provides users (teachers, learners) with a common learning experience. X5gon deploys
open technologies for recommendation, learning analytics and learning personalisation services that works across
various OER sites, independent of languages, modalities, scientific domains, and socio-cultural contexts. It develops
services OER media convergence including full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, videos, tests, software,
related events, tools, materials, techniques used to support access to knowledge. Fivefold solutions are offered to OER
sites:
• Cross-modal: technologies for multimodal content understanding;
• Cross-site: technologies to transparently accompany and analyse users across sites;
• Cross-domain: technologies for cross domain content analytics;
• Cross-language: technologies for cross lingual content recommendation;
• Cross-cultural: technologies for cross cultural learning personalisation.
X5gon collects and index OER resources, track data of users progress and feed an analytics engine driven by state-ofthe-
art machine learning, improve recommendations via user understanding and match with knowledge resources of
all types.
The project will create three services X5oerfeed, X5analytics and X5recommend and run a series of pilot case studies
that enable the measurement of the broader goals of delivering a useful and enjoyable educational experience to
learners in different domains, at different levels and from different cultures.
