A Framework for Developing Adaptive Personalized eLearning

Developing adaptive personalized eLearning has proven to be quite expensive regarding time and cost. Typical adaptive course creation requires input from subject matter experts, pedagogical experts and technical experts. This paper describes a framework for developing adaptive personalized pedagogically sound courses in a developer-supported environment. The paper describes the Adaptive Course Construction Toolkit (ACCT) which was created to provide the course developer with tools to design, test and deploy adaptive personalised eLearning. The ACCT offers support based on pedagogy, instructional design principles, knowledge domain ontology descriptions and learning resource selection.
