We present an overview of LSA-based systems that have been used in instructional settings. Current research on this subject does not take into account the cognitive aspects of learning and teaching, and describes the systems at a techni¬cal level. We propose a cognitive-based classification of these systems that can lead to the design of novel LSA-based applications.
