Abstract

This paper describes an attempt to employ topic map technology in the development of an adaptive WBES. In particular, it explores how topic map standards can be used to represent the knowledge of the system concerning: 1. the educational content, 2. the domain knowledge, and 3. the student's profile, enabling personalized learning as well as reuse and interoperability of educational components. The feasibility and efficiency of the proposed approach is explored in a trial implementation using the subject of microcontrollers as a context.
