    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Different situations may require the presentation of\ndifferent types of examples. For instance, some sit-\nuations require the presentation of positive examples\nonly, while others require both positive and nega-\ntive examples. Furthermore, different examples often\nhave specific presentation requirements: they need\nto appear in an appropriate sequence, be introduced\nproperly and often require associated prompts. It\nis important to be able to identify what is needed\nin which case, and what needs to be done in pre-\nsenting the example. A categorization of examples,\nalong with their associated presentation requirements\nwould help tremendously. This issue is particularly\nsalient in the design of a computational framework for\nthe generation of tutorial descriptions which include\nexamples. Previous work on characterizing exam-\nples has approached the issue from the direction of\nwhen different types of examples should be provided,\nrather than what characterizes the different types. In\nthis paper, w e extend previous work on example char-\nacterization in two ways: (i) we show that the scope\nof the characterization must be extended to include\nnot just the example, but also the surrounding con-\ntext, and (ii) w e characterize examples in terms of\nthree orthogonal dimensions: the information con-\nlent, the intended audience, and the knowledge type.\nWe present descriptions from text-books on USP to\nillustrate our points, and describe h o w such catego-\nrizations can be effectively used by a computational\nsystem to generate descriptions that incorporate ex-\namples.",
