Abstract
Methods and systems of dynamic comment are provided. A comment library stores comment entries and provides a basis for determining comment selections dynamically. Metadata associated with the comment entries may also be stored in the comment library. A set of comment selections may be determined based on the context in which a user is commenting on the digital content and the user's input. A comment library may be searched for matching instances of the user's input to determine the set of comment selections.
Claims12
A computer-implemented method of commenting digital content dynamically, comprising:
- receiving a request to create a comment to a digital content from a user, the request comprising a comment entry entered by the user via a graphical interface of a learning system;
- determining a context related to the digital content by collecting context information comprising a course, a section, an assignment, an instructor, or a student;
- determining a subset of comments by searching a comment library based on the comment entry and the context;
- determining a set of comment selections by applying a searching filter to the determined subset of comments, the set of comment selections comprising individual comment selections;
- presenting the set of comment selections to the user within the graphical interface of the learning system;
- replacing the user comment entry with a user input corresponding to a comment selection within the set of comment selections presented to the user;
- providing and adjusting the set of comment searching filters based on the context, wherein the step of searching the library comprises searching the comment library according to the set of comment searching filters;
- and
- monitoring the comment entry entered by the user.
A non-transitory computer readable medium for commenting digital content dynamically, comprising:
- receiving a request to create a comment to a digital content from a user, the request comprising a comment entry entered by the user via a graphical interface of a learning system;
- determining a context related to the digital content by collecting context information comprising a course, a section, an assignment, an instructor, or a student;
- determining a subset of comments by searching a comment library based on the comment entry and the context;
- determining a set of comment selections by applying a searching filter to the determined subset of comments, the set of comment selections comprising individual comment selections;
- presenting the set of comment selections to the user within the graphical interface of the learning system;
- replacing the user comment entry with a user input corresponding to a comment selection within the set of comment selections presented to the user;
- associating the comment entry corresponding to the comment selection with the digital content and displaying the digital content along with the comment entry;
- providing and adjusting the set of comment searching filters based on the context, wherein the step of searching the library comprises searching the comment library according to the set of comment searching filters;
- and monitoring the comment entry entered by the user.
