Abstract

Within any e-Learning environment there are many types of users, with different backgrounds and different goals. This paper addresses the problem of optimizing learner's learning path in order to achieve a certain goal. This goal regards acquisition of a certain level of knowledge regarding a discipline. The paper proposes a methodology for guiding the student such that he finally obtains needed knowledge level in minimum amount of time. Since evaluation is the activity that generates quality in teaching, the method is based on continuous testing and monitoring learners. Within this process, a learner's model is created and maintained. This model is consulted whenever needed for classification purposes of students.
