Design and functionalities of a Hybrid Personalized Learning Electronic Assistant

Abstract

Throughout the last decade a number of Personalized Learning Environments have been proposed encompassing various personalization techniques, in order to provide learning material adapted to the specified user's requirements. In this study, we illustrate the design and enumerate the basic functionalities of LearneA, a Hybrid Personalized Learning Electronic Assistant. LearneA practically revisits the way other existing personalized environments implement the various proposed personalization mechanisms, but furthermore incorporates a number of innovative characteristics, which have not been implemented yet in any other learning environment. Our aim is a smart Hybrid Personalized Learning Assistant which will eventually offer a completely different learning experience. Additionally, a review of previously proposed Learning Environments is presented with respect to the personalization techniques which they embrace in order to provide personalized learning content for the user.
