Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a framework that can be used to embed an adaptivity mechanism to Moodle so as to achieve better learning results. One of the main innovations is that a hybrid dynamic user model is adopted which is built with techniques that are based both on learner knowledge and behaviour. The proposed mechanism adapts the presentation and the recommended navigation within a course, to students’ different preferences as they are expressed by their learning styles and their educational objectives.
