Abstract:
Learning management systems (LMS, for short) have meanwhile gained an enormous practical relevance. Nevertheless, the quality of service offered is, at least in some respect, astonishingly behind the state of the art. Adaptivity of system behavior is such a field in which we confine ourselves to much less than we can afford. The authors develop an original approach, demonstrate an implementation, and discuss the benefits for learning of an adaptivity approach which is integrated into the LMS moodle although it apparently goes beyond the limits of moodle. The approach is sufficiently generic to be carried over to other LMSs.
