TASK-RELATED ELECTRONIC COACHING
First Claim
1. A system for automated electronic coaching, comprising:
- a standardization component that establishes a performance benchmark for a task based on a set of performance control standards;
an analysis component that employs a user'"'"'s interaction with a communication network to characterize user activity pertinent to the task and rate the activity in accomplishing the task relative to the performance benchmark; and
an output component that provides suggestive feedback to the user based on the activity rating and performance control standards.

Abstract
Providing for task-related electronic feedback based on user interaction with a communication network is described herein. By way of example, user interactions the network or a network interface can be monitored to identify user activities performed in conjunction with a task. A rating for performance of the task can be obtained via comparison of user activities with benchmark performance activities. Based on the rating and user-benchmark comparison, inefficiencies can be identified, along with corrective actions for such activities. The corrective actions can then be output to coach the user on techniques for improving performance of the task. Accordingly, by employing corrective feedback based on monitored user activity, personal training can be automated, potentially reducing time and cost of such training.

10. A method of employing an electronic device to provide automated electronic coaching for a user of the device, comprising:
-
utilizing a processor of the electronic device to execute the following device-readable instructions; monitor user interaction with the electronic device or a network interface to characterize user activity pertinent to a task; rate effectiveness of the user activity in implementing the task with respect to a performance benchmark; generate suggestive feedback for the user based on the rated activity; and employ a user interface component of the electronic device to output the suggestive feedback to the user. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A system for automated electronic coaching, comprising:
-
a benchmark plug-in component that obtains an importable/exportable performance benchmark file tuned to a first social network, organization of network users or set of tasks; an analysis component that employs user interaction with a second social network to characterize user activity pertinent to a subset of the tasks and rate user performance of the subset of the tasks based on the performance benchmark; a display component that graphically renders the user interaction or characterized activity, and a set of benchmark interactions for the task; and an output component that provides feedback configured for modifying the user interaction or a structure of the second network to improve the performance rating, the feedback is output to the display component for user consumption or to a data store for refinement of the characterization of user activity.
