Based on the Samantha's summary on cohesion (great one):

>Cohesion is seen as two different things, the similarity between LOs in

>terms of fonts, graphics etc (type 1) and the information and guidance
which
>'glues' the LOs together to form a 'course' (type 2).

With respect to the type 2 cohesion, we did follow a computational
linguistic approach where:
a) Non-terminal symbols are 'composed teaching tasks'
b) Terminal symbols are 'atomic teaching tasks'
c) and composition rules determine the way(s) in which tasks can be
"glued"

This approach has made it possible for us to solve some
of the problems we have faced in our work on adaptive educational
systems.
