A Framework for Adaptive Personalized E-learning Recommender Systems

With the undergoing technological revolution in education, adapting recommender systems to the personalized e-learning is an emerging topic in the education sector. Detecting the student model offers a potential to recommend a learning material that is adequate to the student progress. Accordingly, the learning objects and hypermedia can be adapted to each individual student to meet the personalized learning needs. This paper proposes a framework for applying recommender systems in personalized e-learning domain. Furthermore, the recommender system previous examples, opportunities, and associated challenges are discussed.
