Abstract

A key to effective automated learning systems is the ability to dynamically adapt learning strategies to the needs of individual students. This presentation will describe the dynamic presentation facility of the DANDIE distance-based learning system that utilises a student model and intelligent system techniques to optimise presentation content and form to meet individual needs. Given a knowledge-base of course material, the system adapts the information through the selection of predefined learning strategies, dynamically constructs an interconnected set of presentation modules, and evaluates the effectiveness of the presentation strategy with respect to the individual student.
