Liberated Learning Partners in North America:

Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA

Overview:

The Spoken Language Systems group in the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) conducts research and develops technology that will enable humans to interact with computers using natural spoken language. One aspect of the research mission focuses on the uses of human language technology in support of education. One of the current research activities in this area is focusing on the automatic transcription, annotation, and summarization of spontaneous spoken lectures.

The goal is to create lecture processing tools that can be easily integrated into various need-dependent frameworks. Usability testing involves integrating the tools into MIT Open Courseware and as well as Liberated Learning initiatives.
