For a researcher, a can answer questions such as:
Were these data collected in a classroom? If so, what were the details?
Is there a hierarchy surrounding this data sequence?
Were these data from a particular research condition?
With which problem or activity do these log messages correspond?

Contexts lets you switch to windows with search. Press Control-Space (or whichever keyboard shortcut you prefer) to open the Search window. Type a few characters from an app name or window title to filter the list. Press Return to switch to the selected item. And in Contexts 3 we have taken search to a new level. Contexts is a quarterly magazine that makes cutting-edge social research accessible to general readers. We're the public face of sociology. It is a publication of the American Sociological Association, edited by Rashawn Ray (University of Maryland, College Park) and Fabio Rojas (Indiana University).
A has two required attributes:
name
context_message_id
The name
attribute is used to indicate where the student is in the process of working on a tutor or problem. The PSLC DataShop team has established some canonical values for this attribute that should be used, displayed in Table 1, 'Recommended values for the name attribute'.
Table 1. Recommended values for the name attribute
Description | Preferred value | Other possible values |
---|---|---|
Starting a problem or activity | START_PROBLEM |
|
Skipping a problem or activity | SKIP_PROBLEM | |
Resuming a problem or activity | RESUME_PROBLEM |
|
Finishing a problem or activity | DONE_PROBLEM | |
Quitting a problem or activity | QUIT_PROBLEM |
|
Resetting a problem or activity | RESET_PROBLEM | |
Reading (REAP) | READING |
The context_message_id
attribute ties a sequence of tutor-related messages together; when referenced in the other messages, it identifies this message as providing the relevant context.

The element supplies the same information as the OLI
element (i.e., user ID, session ID, time, and time zone); it is redundant to supply this information twice. So if logging from inside the OLI course delivery system, you may omit the
element; otherwise, you must include a
element in the context message and all other messages you send.

If you are supplying a meta element, you must supply its four child elements:
The user ID of the current user. A single Boolean attribute, anonFlag
, specifies whether or not the supplied user ID has been anonymized. Its default value is false. If set to true, then DataShop will not re-anonymize the user ID.
A dataset-unique string that identifies the user's session with the tutor.
Local time; must be one of these accepted formats.
The local time zone name, such as one from the 'TZ' column in this List of zoneinfo time zones. Three-letter time zone abbreviations such as 'EST' and 'PST' are still valid, but are deprecated.
Here is our XML so far, including the meta element:
The element and its descendant elements describe the DataShop dataset to which the data should belong; the hierarchy of 'levels' in which the current problem exists; and the current problem.

If you are converting these data to the Tutor Message format from another format, include the name of the tool used to perform the conversion, the tool's version, and the date the tool was created or released.

A requires a single

Nested elements describe the curriculum hierarchy, a positioning of the problem within an organization you define. While nested
elements are common, only a single
is required.

DataShop expects consistent levels—consistent both in terms of depth and type—throughout the dataset. For example, if a context message describes a unit that contains sections, other context messages in the dataset should also describe a unit-section hierarchy. Figure 6.

This element has a single attribute:
type
: the type of level, usually something like 'unit', 'section', 'chapter', etc. Maximum length of ≤ 100 characters.
A is composed of a , and either another or a . This structure can either repeat—a nested element—or a
element can be included. There is no limit on the depth of the level hierarchy.
Provide a name for your level. For example, a name of 'Understanding Fractions', when combined with a level type of 'Section', produces 'Section Understanding Fractions'.
The element contains both a
and a
.

The element has two attributes: The tutorFlag attribute can be any of the following values:
tutorFlag
: can be any of the values specified in Table 2, 'Recommended values for the tutorFlag attribute'other
: a value not listed in Table 2, 'Recommended values for the tutorFlag attribute'; stored only iftutorFlag

Table 2. Recommended values for the tutorFlag attribute
Value of tutorFlag attribute | Description |
---|---|
tutor | Denotes a tutored problem. |
test | Denotes a test problem. |
pre-test | Denotes a pre-test problem. |
post-test | Denotes a post-test problem. |
other | Used to describe a problem that does not fit any of the above categories. If tutorFlag is other , then the other attribute must be filled in with application-specific data indicating where the problem falls in the spectrum between tutor and test. If tutorFlag is one of the other values in this table, then the other attribute is ignored. |

The name of the problem (e.g., 'FractionAddition-1-2plus1-3').
The element's value can be any string that provides more information—a text prompt to the student, a scenario, or other descriptor—but should not be HTML: HTML is not validated as part of the schema or by DataShop, and it has the potential to break the DataShop interface when viewed.
The following code snippet defines a problem with a 'unit-section' curriculum hierarchy. The problem 'ChemPT1' falls within 'Unit A', 'Section One'.
The element is used to describe the context of tutor usage in a school.
Of its child elements, only can occur more than once.

If class name is not filled in, but period is, then period will be used as the class name. If class name and period name are not filled in, but description is, then the description will be used as the class name. |

in a context message is a description of a knowledge component that may be exercised by the student in the course of solving the problem or activity. It's primary purpose is to describe the probability of the student knowing the skill at the beginning of the problem. This probability is commonly used to track student mastery of knowledge components ('mastery learning') through a knowledge-tracing algorithm.
