title: An adaptive medical e-learning environment: the MEDIDACTE project.
abstract: Most e-learning systems offer the same tools and resource materials to students who are different in terms of motivations, training backgrounds, technical skills and learning objectives. Adaptive systems development is a challenge intended to improve the efficiency of these systems. This communication presents the design and implementation of an adaptive medical e-learning environment. The authors describe the MEDIDACTE architecture developed in three levels namely, the educational resource, educational project and user level. Current MEDIDACTE implementation and integration in Marseille Medical University curriculum are presented.
