To context-aware learner modeling based on ontology

Abstract

One of the main motivations for better learner modeling is to make distance learning system intelligent so that they can present adaptive learning content to each learner according to his needs. This aspect of intelligence is mainly ensured by the exploitation of the learner model. However, the multiplicity of information about the learner makes their modeling a very complex activity and constitutes an open line of research, which has given rise to several proposals from different points of view. In this trend, this paper presents a new context-aware learner modeling approach enriched from existing models and based on the exploitation of ontology.
