Adaptive hypermedia in secondary schools: from the teacher to the student
by Felix Munoz, Alvaro Ortigosa
International Journal of Learning Technology (IJLT), Vol. 3, No. 3, 2007
Abstract: The support of diversity is a growing concern in public secondary schools in Spain. Adaptive Educational Hypermedia (AEH) technology provides tools well fitted for this task. Through three different experiences, this paper shows how AEH helps to improve student performance. However, the complexity of the design process for adaptive hypermedia is hindering a wider application of this technology. One possible solution is to apply the benefits of adaptive hypermedia to provide support to adaptive-course authors. In this way, teachers with no knowledge of adaptive systems, user models or formal languages would be able to produce rather complex adaptive courses, starting from course templates automatically selected according to their specific needs. In this paper it is also shown how an adaptive course on adaptive hypermedia design was used to help secondary school teachers to select and instantiate these templates.
