Enhancing a medical e-learning environment: the adaptive DI2@DEM approach.
Current medical e-learning tools suffer from a variability of student user. Students are different in terms of motivations, training backgrounds, technical skills and learning objectives. It is obvious that these students do not accede relevant information if their educational resources access is misadapted. Adaptive environments propose to take the user into account in order to provide him or her with the most relevant educational resources. We present the adaptive DI(2)ADEM approach, which enhances the MEDIDACTE e-learning environment of the Faculty of Medicine in Marseille. DI(2)ADEM objective is to select the most relevant information and offer it to the user in an adaptive manner. Adaptability is based on management of knowledge regarding both the user and resources distributed. A match is made between student's profile and knowledge of resources organization and semantics.
