An approach to creating an adaptive on-line course

Previous research has shown that the application of the "one size fits all" concept, whereby all students are presented with the same static content, brought about failure of numerous electronic courses, as well as ill-motivation and discontent of the students. This paper presents a solution for the development of an adaptive on-line course in the personalized environment LMS Moodle. The primary objective of this research is the personalization of electronic learning system in accordance with the ascertained capabilities, needs and preferences of each student, allowing also for the circumscribed styles of learning. Students are classified in three characteristic groups and a model of an adaptive system of distance learning is presented.
