A learning system using user preference in ubiquitous computing environment

Abstract

In this article, a learning system in ubiquitous computing environment is proposed that considers the preference of each student. The system provides information about the learner's preferred learning unit and their score, thus allowing learners to set up an optimized learning environment. A topic preference vector was applied to calculate the learner's preferences, and the learning units were used as each vector value in the system. For experiment of the proposed system, we applied it to English learning system. And we could show the system is useful for learning and convenient for using to learner. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
