Concept-driven learning goal for flex-el

Abstract

There are a number of universities offering course material through elearning or web-based learning. The common practice is that these courses are available only for those learners who are seeking degree curriculum. Considering these rich educational resources, an approach that allows them to be utilized for supporting other types of learners, and allow such content to be managed from a single source of material would be very useful. In this paper, we propose concept-driven learning goal approach that allows these courses to be easily organized for personalized learning support, and manage from a single source of material. We then present a simple approach for personalized recommendation functionality based on the proposed representation using compulsory, elective requirements, and learner profile as the guiding parameters.
