Overview
JavaGuide is a personalized front-end for QuizJET developed by PAWS Lab (Hsiao, 2010).

The navigation support is provided on the level of topics using “Target/Arrows” visual cues where the color of target icon associated with each topic indicates the current importance of the topic and the number of arrows in the target shows the current student knowledge level of the correspondent topics.
