A New Adaptiveness Model in Learning System Based on Learner Context

Abstract

Adaptive learning system must support different learning objectives and contexts of different learners. However only a very limited requirements above can be considered in present adaptive learning systems, especially in learning objectives. By extending the domain model and the user model and introducing the directed hypergragh theory in learning system, three types of adaptiveness to the user model: learning objective adaptiveness, learning navigation adaptiveness and learning content adaptiveness in learning system are defined formally, analyzed in detail, and implemented arithmetically. The research shows that three types of adaptiveness to the user model in learning system above can support the adaptiveness to different leaning objectives and styles of users effectively.

Yet another adaptive learning management system based on Felder and Silverman’s learning styles and Mashup

“…Ozyurt, et al (2012) designed a personalized adaptive and intelligent web-based tutoring system, based on learning style and an expert system named UZWEBMAT was evaluated for its effect on 10th grade students' studying a unit about probability. A more complete adaptive learning system was presented by Jiang, Qian, Zhou & Fan. (2009), which provides learners with a path and a map for adaptive learning knowledge items, as well as the learning preferences for users.…”
