E-World: A Platform for Managing and Tracing Adaptive E-learning Processes

Abstract

In this paper we propose E-World an e-learning platform, which is able to manage and trace adaptive didactic contents designed and created by a visual language based tool, named ASCLO-S (Adaptive Self consistent Learning Object SET) editor. We also propose a case study aimed at assessing the usability of the presented e-learning platform and students’ performances on two teaching approaches. The usability was assessed through a questionnaire, while students’ performances were analyzed using the information traced by E-World. Finally, we analyze and discuss the achieved results to identify dependences among usability, learning performances and students’ welfare
