Abstract

Each term, university students consult the new calendar for deciding which courses to take in order to advance their studies. At present, university calendars are largely static documents that do not make use of adaptive hypertext technology. We are currently developing a prototypical system that offers course information tailored to the specific student, on the basis of a user profile and the navigation history of the current system session. Documents are thus partly generated dynamically, and hyperlinks into the document space created appropriately. We describe the idea, the user scenario with its roles for adaptivity, and the technical realization, which is currently under way.
