This research aims to give learners more content-dependent scaffolding in the self-directed learning of history. Learners use a system to build a concept map containing a chronology. The system is able to generate content-dependent support adapted to the learners. For this support, we intend to build a semantic open learning space using a natural language online encyclopedia and semantic information using the open linked data. The support is provided by the automatically generated questions according to a learner's request by referring to the concept maps of the learner and the system. The generated questions aim to lead learners to new knowledge, deepening their understanding.
