An Overview of aLFanet: An Adaptive iLMS Based on Standards

aLFanet (IST-2001-33288) aims to build an adaptive iLMS (intelligent Learning Management System) that provides personalised eLearning based on the combination of different types of adaptation (e.g. learning routes, interactions in services, peer-to-peer collaboration, presentation). It integrates new principles and tools in the fields of Learning Design and Artificial Intelligence, following existing standards in the educational field (IMS-LD, IMS-CP, IEEE-LOM, IMS-LIP, IMS-QTI) and multi-agents systems (FIPA). In this paper we present an overview of the project ongoing research and developments.
