ICALT06 – Adaptivity in Learning Systems, Kerkrade, 5 th of July, 2006 TU/e eindhoven university of technology Outline Introduction LAOS MOT, Content-e, AHA! Content-e/LAOS Conclusion

ICALT06 – Adaptivity in Learning Systems, Kerkrade, 5 th of July, 2006 TU/e eindhoven university of technology Motivation There is a serious need of personalization and adaptation in commercial environments AEH can provide a systematic framework Our work is one of the first attempts of marrying the two worlds: commercial & AEH

ICALT06 – Adaptivity in Learning Systems, Kerkrade, 5 th of July, 2006 TU/e eindhoven university of technology Conclusion MOT was viewed as more stable, while C-e/LAOS was more appealing More specific/limited is appreciated over flexible/complex MOT: functional (SUS), C-e/LAOS: overall impression (specific questionnaire) C-e/LAOS: higher learning threshold; might in the long run be more appreciated for its extra options. This work represents one of the first attempts to systematically create an authoring environment for personalized learning in a commercial setting, therefore adapting commercial learning environments for adaptivity.
