Individualized learning is the most important process that need to use individualization constraints to ensure adaptive systems able to support flexible solutions dynamically adapt content as well as interface and the scenario of multimedia learning object to fit pedagogical intentions. Therefore, this various aspect of multimedia learning object have to be supported in a highly personalized ma...

The majority of current web-based learning systems are closed learning environments where courses and learning materials are fixed and the only dynamic aspect is the organization of the material that can be adapted to allow a relatively individualized learning environment. In this paper, we propose an evolving web-based learning system which can adapt itself not only to its users, but also to t...

This study explored barriers and facilitating factors affecting the development and use of learning objects in developing instructional materials and their use in supporting individualized learning. Over a two-month period, students in a graduate-level instructional design course developed instructional materials incorporating learning objects or developed learning objects in selected areas or ...

Experience study shows the different experiment plans and scripts in the second language learning researches will diversify the conclusions. More than that, the lacking of the simulation tool also has prevented the researchers from investigating the individualized patterns that cognitive abilities may form to a single learner. Therefore, it is very necessary to evaluate and simulate the cogniti...

At present e-Learning systems are widely introduced in education. There are various systems developed and implemented for learners. However, most of these systems are static and inflexible. These traditional systems are developed on the basis of “one-size-fit-all”. They cannot be adjusted to fit the individual’s capability. In this paper the user-centric approach is applied to improve the perfo...

The present study is an attempt to shed light on the effect of Dynamic Assessment (DA) on diagnosing and developing the receptive vocabulary abilities of upper-intermediate learners learning English as a foreign language. Fifty L2 leaners participated in the First Certificate in English test and completed Vocabulary Knowledge Scale. Out of 50 students, ten learners who were identified as being ...

OBJECTIVE Inexpensive and standardized methods to deliver medical education to primary care physicians (PCPs) are desirable. Our objective was to assess the impact of an individualized simulated learning intervention on diabetes care provided by PCPs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Eleven clinics with 41 consenting PCPs in a Minnesota medical group were randomized to receive or not receive the l...

This study examines the patterns of use and potential impact of individualized, reflective guidance in an educational Multi-User Virtual Environment (MUVE). A guidance system embedded within a MUVE-based scientific inquiry curriculum was implemented with a sample of middle school students in an exploratory study investigating (a) whether access to the guidance system was associated with improve...

The automatic generation of individualized plans in specific domains is an open problem that combines aspects related to automated planning, machine learning or recommendation systems technology. In this paper, we focus on a specific instance of that task; that of generating e-learning courses adapted to students’ profiles, within the automated planning paradigm. One of the open problems in thi...
