A Proposal to Define Adaptive Learning Designs

Abstract

Abstract. This paper outlines a framework to describe adaptive learning designs where definitions as the instructional design method, the type of tests, the learning style approach, and the adaptive rules are not prescribed. Standardized metadata based on IMS is used to guarantee the reusability and interoperability of the elements. The framework proposes, also, to adjust the learning design taking into account the student knowledge and the learning style of both the learner and the learning activities by means of adaptive rule definitions. These rules are defined using a set of elements (based on IMS LD) and they describe adaptive statements, techniques and students’ stereotypes.
