Rhizi is web software to deepen the online connections between learning materials with meaning and context. It is a “WordPress” for knowledge-graphs that enables users to freely make connections between a paragraph from a blog, research data, a video segment, people and more. These connections are special: They can be shared with your community, peer-reviewed, visualized, “followed”, and contain explorable context understood by both man and machine. Op...

Jiannan Zhang, Limeng Liang and Weipeng KuangOpen TrackUniversity of Oxford (UK)Learning English vocabulary is usually a pain for non-native speakers. One way to simplify the process is to use different kinds of material to explain word meanings instead of text-only information, and show the relation of a word / phrase to others. There are fairly large amount of open data can be used for this task, including WordNet, DBpedia, CC-Credit, etc. A functioning prototype has been built to help people get word meanings and illustrate the idea of multimedia dictionary.Demo: http://newdictionary.co.uk/

Ricardo Kawase, Ujwal Gadiraju and Patrick SiehndelL3S Research Center & Leibniz Universität Hannover (Germany)Open TrackEvery year thousands of new research works are indexed and published online. Scientific publications involve mainly two sets of actors; namely, authors and articles. Consequently, a huge tangle of relations emerge together, where authors collaborate with several other authors and articles reference past literature. Due to this complex network, keeping up to date with the latest research in a particular field is often a time consuming task. Currently, available tools to explore such information are solely text based. The information seeker has to search, browse and navigate page by page in order to find relevant research. Yet, on...

Lorenz Bühmann, Ricardo Usbeck and Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo AKSW Research Group (Germany) Open Track The Linked Open Data Cloud is a gold mine for educational applications: First, it contains knowledge of encyclopedic nature on a large number of real-world entities. Moreover, the data being structured ensures that the meaning of the data can be understood by both humans and machines. Finally, the openness of the data and the use of RDF as standard format facilitate the development of applications that can be ported across different domains with ease. However, RDF is still unknown to most members of the target audience of educational applications. Thus, Linked Data has commonly been used for the description or annotation of educational data. Yet, Linked Data has (to the best of our...
