Abstract:
Activity planning is an essential element in the teaching-learning process, since it can ensure that adequate activities are utilized to convey the information to students. The common practice in course planning is that the teacher selects the same set of activities for every student in the classroom. However this does not address the students’ heterogeneity in learning styles, knowledge, and personality. To address this problem, this paper proposes ASHYI-EDU, a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) with dynamic adaptive planning. ASHYI- EDU is able to capture distinctive student characteristics and provide students with plans that are especially tailored for their particular characteristics. This paper also presents an ongoing case study that utilizes ASHYI- EDU in a university course.
