X Abstract

An existing Adaptive Hypermedia System in use in Trinity College allows for student customisation of a course. However, the author has decided to examine the considerations and aspects of learning styles that could make a considerable pedagogical impact on both the narrative selection - using Gregorc’s model - and then the content selection - providing for fine grained learning - using the VARK model for learner preferences. A descriptive framework or mechanism was created against pedagogical considerations, for the metadata that would determine the three levels of adaptivity – Narrative Selection, Content Group Selection, Candidate Selection. The author set about modifying the way the information is currently modelled (the pagelets representing SQL content are created using XML) to allow for learning style specific content. The metadata was then reconciled with the current learning content. The design of the narrative model was investigated and the relevant changes were made in order to support personalized learning based on the preferred cognitive or learning styles of the students. The rules dynamically generate the navigation structure (this is the personalized process) based on the learner and content metadata, which is derived from the descriptive framework.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
