Contents Motivation Avoiding problems Problem statement Ways to solve the problem What shall we get?

Motivation E-learning support in Ukraine; Extending the possibilities of existing e-learning software; Improvement and individualization of e-learning; There is no distance form of study in Ukraine officially.

Avoiding problems It will take more time to develop a course; More complex software; Teachers do not have enough experience to use IT in Education.

Problem statement It will take more time to develop a course; Adaptive System Development: 1. Speed up course development: Automation of the most complex tasks Team course development 2. Use existing software for adaptive system: Microsoft Word Moodle Software developed by UIITE It will take more time to develop a course; More complex software; Teachers do not have enough experience to use IT in Education.

Ways to solve the problem Adaptive algorithms Adaptive Learning System Student Model Server Module for Moodle Moodle LMS Microsoft Word Learning Object Storage Software to be developed Third-party software

Ways to solve the problem Learning Object Storage Pilot project – virtual labs. LabVIEW Server. Provides remote control to .vi files with LabVIEW Remote Panel.

Ways to solve the problem Learning Object Storage Pilot project – virtual labs. File storage. Files are stored on the virtual disk. File labels. They are like folders, but single file may belong to many labels. Access control. Course developers may control access to their files. Exchange of learning objects. Developers exchange their files providing access for them to each other.

Ways to solve the problem Module for Moodle Import learning objects from LO storage. Individualize the way of learning. Each connection has its own conditions. Learning Object Imported from LO storage

Ways to solve the problem Student model server Student’s psychophysiological characteristics Previous activity Student’s goal Student’s knowledge level Student Model

Ways to solve the problem Module for Moodle Connection Each connection has its own conditions: Knowledge level required to view this object; Student’s previous activity in the course; Psychophysiological characteristics of a student;

Ways to solve the problem Psychophysiological characteristics of students: Audio / video / text / images; Time limits; The nervous system of the student: Strong nervous system; Weak nervous system.

What shall we get? Learning object storage; Adaptive e-learning system; Psychophysiologic component of Student model;
