Context of the dissertation
![Page 10: my 10 minutes of fame](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062614/5459b678b1af9fc0638b5948/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Discovering learning resources across language boundaries is challenging!
Main problem: the resource & its metadata description are made in a different context from where the
resource is discovered and/or actually used
Problem statement
![Page 11: my 10 minutes of fame](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062614/5459b678b1af9fc0638b5948/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Learning resources from
different countries and
in different languages do not cross-reference via hyperlinks!

The self-organisation aspect of a social tagging system on a learning resource portal helps users discover learning resources more efficiently.
User-generated tags make the system, which operates in a multilingual context, more robust and flexible.
Hypothesis
![Page 16: my 10 minutes of fame](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062614/5459b678b1af9fc0638b5948/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Setting the scene
Trilogy of empirical studies
What happens when users tag in multiple languages?
Are learning resources used across contexts?
2. Metadata ecology more robust and flexibile system
1. Ecology of social search more efficient users
3. Tags connect con-tent across contexts more flexibility
Structure of studies
![Page 17: my 10 minutes of fame](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062614/5459b678b1af9fc0638b5948/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Spanish resource
Tag «interactive»
Tags create link-structures beween
content in different languages
Finnish resource

Austria
Hungary
Finland
Resource that «Travels well»
Tags create link-structures beween
users in different countries

This opens novel ways for better cross-language discovery of learning resources, paving the way for
recommender systems, social navigation and ranking in this domain
