Educational recommendation is often pursued in environments where there is significant content knowledge of each item. For example, a recommender might choose appropriate learning modules in a tutoring system. In such cases, content-based recommendation can be very powerful. Our work examines recommendation of educational experiences in an informal learning environment. In this domain, content knowledge is weak and often missing, making collaborative recommendation the technique of choice.
