| Abstract: |
Researchers in the area of educational software have always shown a great deal of
interest for the automatic synthesis of learning curricula. During the recent years, with
the extensive use of metadata and the emergence of the Semantic Web, this vision is
gradually turning into a reality. A number of systems for curricula synthesis have
been proposed. These systems are based on strong relations defined in the metadata of
learning objects, which allow them to be combined with other learning objects, in
order to form a complete educational program. This article presents PASER, a system
for automatically synthesizing curricula using AI Planning and Semantic Web
technologies. The use of classical planning techniques allows the system to
dynamically construct learning paths even from disjoint learning objects, meeting the
learner’s profile, preferences, needs and abilities. |
