• Resumen

  • E-learning platforms are very successful in e-education but provide little adaptivity. Personalized courses which adapt to the needs of each individual learner improve the learning progress. In this paper, we introduce a meta-model for enhancing e-learning platforms with the use of adaptivity. This meta-model enables the platforms to provide different courses that adjust to the needs of each learner, especially with respect to learning styles. The paper presents the meta-model by describing the structure of an adaptive course and exemplifies different views for learners with different learning styles.
