# Ongoing Quest ⏳

Description: The Ongoing Quest widget is a powerful tool that provides a multi-layered exploration of any chosen thought or concept. This widget has two views, one when Quest Mode is enabled and another when Quest Mode is disabled.

Powered by Artificial Intelligence, at the core of the Ongoing Quest widget lies a dendrogram that serves as an educational course outline for the searched keyword(s). Each node represents a sub-topic or related concept, offering a hierarchical view that uncovers the depth and breadth of knowledge surrounding the subject. By clicking on any node, detailed information unfolds in the Detail widget, presenting a wealth of resources and insights. The Detail widget offers a comprehensive overview of the selected node, presenting a description that provides a contextual understanding of the topic. It further provides recommendations on what to read, offering relevant articles from the internet to expand your knowledge. The Detail widget also suggests videos that are directly related to the topic. These curated videos provide additional perspectives and visual content to enhance your understanding. To assess your comprehension and engage in self-reflection, the Detail widget includes a section titled "Things to Answer". These questions encourage critical thinking and self-assessment, enabling you to evaluate your understanding of the concerned topic.

This view of Ongoing Quest is a dendrogram version of Snippet widget that leverages the power of the Semantic Web. Rather than focusing on a structured course outline, this view highlights the rich metadata associated with each node within the dendrogram. It draws upon the vast resources and knowledge available through reputable sources, utilising the principles of the Semantic Web to uncover the intricate connections and relationships between various concepts. In this view, each node represents a specific concept or entity, and the relationships between nodes reflect the semantic associations and connections. These relationships showcase how concepts are related, whether it be through hierarchical, associative, or other semantic connections. This facilitates a holistic exploration experience, allowing you to broaden your knowledge and discover new perspectives within the interconnected web of information.

Unlike the view when Quest Mode is enabled, clicking on the end-node will generate the related information as metadata and not in the form of an educational course. Also, clicking on a node, with existing children nodes, will collapse all the children nodes.

# Usage Instructions 📚

Generate Quest

To generate a quest:

Search anything on the Global Search widget
Wait for the quest to load (you can track the loading by observing the spin loader on the top-left of canvas)

Quest will load and you are ready to explore the concerned topic(s).

The Dendrogram will offer different details depending on whether the Quest Mode is enabled or disabled.

Graph Tools

# | Undo and | Redo

When working on the Quest's dendrogram, you make innumerable edits and changes to the graph. When unsure of a particular edit, you can go back to the previous state of the graph or even move to the subsequent state and revise it. By using the undo or redo tools, you can easily control your graph's states.

# To undo or redo:

click on the relevant icon

# | Download and | Import JSON

With the download and upload JSON tools, you can download and upload the JSON representation of your ongoing quest. Whether you want to maintain backups for personal reference, collaborate with others, or simply ensure the preservation of your exploration journey, these tools empower you to take control of your quest's data.

# | Centre Align Graph

The Center Align Graph tool offers a simple and effective way to achieve a balanced and overall view of your dendrogram. As you explore or edit the intricate layers of your quest, the graph may become disoriented or move off-centre. In such cases, the Center Align Graph tool brings the graph back to its default, centred position. When working with the dendrogram, users have the flexibility to drag the canvas and move the graph according to their exploration needs. However, this dynamic movement may sometimes lead to a loss of perspective or an imbalanced display. This is where the Center Align Graph tool proves invaluable, allowing you to effortlessly reset and recenter the graph with a single click.

# Node-specific Tools

# Add as a Goal

The Ongoing Quest widget allows you to set goals and track your progress. By adding a node as a goal, you can maintain a list of targets to achieve within your exploration journey. To add any node as a Goal:

Right-click on the concerned node of the graph Click on "Add as a Goal"

# Add Children

To further customise the graph and add more depth to your exploration, the Ongoing Quest widget allows you to add children nodes. This functionality enables you to personalise the graph according to your specific interests, preferences, or areas of focus, creating a truly tailored exploration experience. To add a children node:

Right-click on the concerned node of the graph
Click on "Add Children"
Enter the node title
Click on "OK"

In case you want to add multiple children nodes, enter a comma separated list of titles of children nodes.

# Edit Node

To edit any node's title:

Right-click on the concerned node of the graph
Click on "Edit Node"
Enter the new title of the node
Click on "OK"

# Remove Node

To remove any node:

Right-click on the concerned node of the graph
Click on "Remove Node"
Click on "OK"

# Add as a Quest

To create a new quest from an existing node:

Right-click on the concerned node of the graph
Click on "Remove Node"
Click on "Add as a Quest"
Wait for the new quest to load (you can track the loading by observing the spin loader on the top-left of canvas)

Tips 💡

Utilise the Detail widget: When clicking on a node, leverage the information presented in the Detail widget. Pay attention to the description, recommended readings, suggested videos, and thought-provoking questions. These resources provide valuable insights and avenues for further exploration.
Set goals for focused learning: Take advantage of the goal-setting feature in the Ongoing Quest widget. Identify nodes that you find particularly interesting or relevant and add them as goals. This helps you stay focused, motivated, and organised as you progress through your exploration journey.
Customise the graph: Enhance your exploration experience by adding children nodes to the dendrogram. Customise the graph according to your specific interests and desired focus areas. This allows you to tailor the content and structure of the Ongoing Quest widget to align with your exploration goals.
Engage in self-reflection: When presented with the "Things to Answer" section in the Detail widget, take the time to ponder the provided questions. Engaging in self-reflection promotes deeper understanding, critical thinking, and an assessment of your own comprehension of the topic.
