Content recommendation in Web based Educational Systems aims to provide references to didactic and educational resources, attending the individual necessities of the students. This paper presents an approach for content recommendation based on three metrics, the interest a user has on resources, her or his preferences over the resources and the popularity of resources. The interest is get implicitly taking into account the users navigation through the system. The preference is declared explicitly by the user using a classification mechanism. The popularity is a measure that considers the history of the resources access by the users as a whole. With these three kinds of measures, the approach provides user profiles which are then considered for content recommendation.
