Nowadays, the world's population is increasingly waiting for permanent and constant access to information. Accessing the right information at any time and any place is becoming a necessity. A learning system is called ubiquitous if it is able to adapt itself to its context (user, platform, environment, device, etc.). In this sense, theories and methods of adaptations keep rolling in order to make learning processes more efficient and relevant. In this paper, we propose an approach for providing personalized course content in ubiquitous learning, considering learning styles and context-awareness. The proposed approach aims to support learners by presenting course materials generated by an adaptive engine based on adaptation rules.
<p>In the 21st century, University educations are becoming a key pillar of social and economic life. It plays a major role not only in the educational process but also in the ensuring of two important things which are a prosperous career and financial security. However, predicting university admission can be especially difficult because the students are not aware of admission requirements. For that reason, the main purpose of this research work is to provide a recommender system for early predicting university admission based on four Machine Learning algorithms namely Linear Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Regression, and Random Forest Regression. The experimental results showed that the Random Forest Regression is the most suitable Machine Learning algorithm for predicting university admission. Also, the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the most important parameter that influences the chance of admission.</p>
Learner learning style represents a key principle and core value of the adaptive learning systems (ALS). Moreover, understanding individual learner learning styles is a very good condition for having the best services of resource adaptation. However, the majority of the ALS, which consider learning styles, use questionnaires in order to detect it, whereas this method has a various disadvantages, For example, it is unsuitable for some kinds of respondents, time-consuming to complete, it may be misunderstood by respondent, etc. In the present paper, we propose an approach for automatically detecting learning styles in ALS based on eye tracking technology, because it represents one of the most informative characteristics of gaze behavior. The experimental results showed a high relationship among the Felder-Silverman Learning Style and the eye movements recorded whilst learning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
