Abstract

Personalization is the next step in the evolution of eLearning systems. Students can have several cognitive styles, which make the efficiency and efficacy of an eLearning system different with distinct students. The three different viewpoints [21] and evolution in the area of e-Learning are pedagogy (learner-oriented educational theories), pragmatic (practical solutions to use of instructional components by teachers and instructional designers), and technological (building instructional components by computer professional). Though there are no distinct classifications of the approaches while implementing, the union of all the viewpoints is not dealt / applied completely by any of the author. This paper focus on integrating the above said principles on semantic educational servers with the power of eLearning standards. The knowledge items (learning objects) are linked to commonly agreed ontology [4], [7], [8]. This enables construction of a user-specific course, by semantic querying for topics of interest.
