Abstract:
We investigate the requirements for an adaptive learning system. A conceptual model is explored which links together a student model, a tutor model and a knowledge model. We further consider the use of an adaptive engine which allows the system to respond to the needs of individual students, present learning objects according to the preferences of individual tutor styles, allows automatic self-exploration at the level of student maturity and encodes the curriculum in a form that is accessible to the adaptive engine. Our model accurately represents both the structure and content of learning objects in contrast with less structured data models implicit in ontological hierarchies.
