Goal-directed Metacontrol for Integrated Procedure Learning
We describe a metalevel framework for coordinating the activities of a community of learners to create an integrated learning system. The metalevel framework is organized around learning goals, which are formulated through introspective reasoning to identify problems and requirements for the ongoing learning process.

Recommendations for End-User Development
We provide an overview of the state of the art in end-user development, focusing on the different kinds of recommendations made to users. We identify four classes of suggestion that could most directly benefit from existing recommendation techniques.
