A Tutorial Supervisor for Automatic Assessment in Educational Systems

A concern, however, with the educational use of hypermedia is that of user navigation. The issue is how, on the one hand, to prevent the user from becoming overwhelmed with information and losing track of where they are going, while on the other hand permitting them to make the most of the facilities the hypermedia offers. One approach to remedy this is to restrict the number of links made available to the student. The concern that this might lead to an impoverished set of learning opportunities can be countered by the use of adaptive hypermedia, seeking dynamically to configure the available links as the student proceeds.
