“…While some authors disagree with the efficacy of LSs (An & Carr, 2017;Kirschner, 2017), several studies claim that their use has a potential positive impact on learning outcomes (Adkins & Guerreiro, 2018;Alshammari, Anane, & Hendley, 2015;El-Bishouty, Chang, Graf, Kinshuk, & Chen, 2014;Faria, Almeida, Martins, Gonçalves, & Figueiredo, 2015;Mahnane & Hafidi, 2015). Our overall impression is that the criticism usually happens due to the fact that many LS models use binary classifications and, thus, students are classified in only one end of the available dimensions, without considering uncertainties inherent in the process.…”

The fact that people behave and learn in a different pace requires individual differences to be properly considered in the teaching/learning process. Among several cognitive theories that could be used for this purpose, a promising one is to explore the use of students' learning styles (LSs), with several research studies indicating that their use has positive impacts on learning outcomes. At the same time, Ubiquitous Learning Environments (ULEs) have the potential to make the multimedia authoring of Learning Objects (LOs) an automated process, resulting on even larger educational content repositories and increasing the need for more adequate presentation strategies to students. This article presents an approach for creating and personalizing LOs through a probabilistic proposal of the Felder and Silverman Learning Styles Model. A prototype of the proposed model was integrated into a ubiquitous educational platform and experimented in real settings. Results indicate the existence of correlations between different types of interactions carried out by students and their respective LSs.

“…Despite the technology evolution related with users' profiles modelling (it has become more complex and intelligent, due to use of recent technological evolutions), the basic concepts, ideas and problems that supported the appearance of this research area are almost the same: the identification of user needs, desires, personalities and, most important, objectives. For example, in a research work related with education processes (Faria, Almeida, Martins, Gonçalves, & Figueiredo, 2015;Martins et al, 2013) authors model students as individuals that differ in their social, physical, psychological, emotional and also ethnic characteristics in order to obtain better student's results.…”
