ABSTRACT
Narrative or story telling has long been used to structure and organise human experience. In contrast to logical models of reasoning, narrative models enable complex situations to be understood and recalled by humans readily. There is also some indication that narrative models represent the way in which jurors weigh up the veracity of legal evidence. In this work a narrative model is integrated into a logical reasoning model for the purpose of advancing a learning environment that promises to be engaging and effective. The narrative model includes a representation of the point of a story and a simple story grammar. The learning environment is designed to enable the automated generation of plausible scenarios representing a variety of family law property division cases told from the point of view of numerous characters.

A framework for narrative adaptation in interactive story-based learning environments
INT3 '10: Proceedings of the Intelligent Narrative Technologies III WorkshopA key functionality provided by interactive narrative systems is narrative adaptation: augmenting story experiences in response to users' actions, and tailoring story elements to individual users' preferences and needs. However, the task of interactive ...
Plan-based narrative generation with coordinated subplots
ECAI'16: Proceedings of the Twenty-second European Conference on Artificial IntelligenceDespite recent progress in plan-based narrative generation, one major limitation is that systems tend to produce a single plotline whose progression entirely determines the narrative experience. However, for certain narrative genres such as serial ...
Early narrative experience: positive segue to narrative gameplay
ACE '06: Proceedings of the 2006 ACM SIGCHI international conference on Advances in computer entertainment technologyThis paper theorizes that children segue into digital narrative game play easily and 'without pause' because of the perception of narrative they develop through their early print narrative experiences. These experiences are multimodal and socially ...
