....for adaptive hypermedia are educational systems. Research on so called adaptive educational hypermedia (AEH) systems has carried out in theoretical foundations (cf. 3, 2] practical systems (out of the many systems developed in adaptive educational hypermedia we cite only very few examples: [4, 7, 10, 18]) as well as their analysis and evaluation (cf. 15, 20] The employment of adaptation in educational hypermedia has shown to improve learner guidance by showing e.g. the next reasonable learning step to take or by the individualized creation of learning sequences. It has shown to improve ....

....user (AC) 3 Examples This section provides two examples: The first example is a prototypical (artificial) AEHS whose purpose is to illustrate the applicability of the above proposed framework. The second example shows excerpts of the logical description of an existing AEHS: the NetCoach system [14]. Due to space constraints, we can not provide the full description of NetCoach in this paper. We have characterized three further AEHS, the Interbook system [3] the ELM ART II system [15] and the KBS hyperbook system [7] The complete logic based description of these systems can be found in a ....

....to illustrate the applicability of our above framework. The first three examples describe prototypical (artificial AEHS) whose purpose is to illustrate the applicability of the above proposed framework. The following four examples show the logical descriptions of existing AEHS: the NetCoach system [18], the Interbook system [3] the ELM ART II system [19] and the KBS hyperbook system [10] 3.1 A very simple AEHS We describe a simple AEHS, called Simple with the following functionality: Simple can annotate hypertext links to documents by using the tra#c light metaphor with two colors: red for ....

.... differences in terms of knowledge, experience, preferences, or learning objectives [3] and thus promise to improve the teaching process [8] NetCoach is an authoring system that enables authors to develop adaptive webbased learning courses without being required to program source code [10]. 2.1 Course Structure and Adaptivity All NetCoach courses are based on the same structure. Similar to chapters and subchapters in a book, the learning material (i.e. pages with texts, images, animations) is stored in a hierarchical tree structure of concepts. Learners may navigate through this ....

....gain. When constructing a hypertext authors should considers the users prior knowledge [3] It might be useful to adapt the hypertext s structure [2] or to provide different advisements [4] In any case such adaptations require the assessment of prior knowledge. The authoring system NetCoach [6] provides a mechanism both to assess the user s prior knowledge and to adapt the course accordingly. 2 Adaptation Mechanism NetCoach is designed to enable authors to build adaptive online courses without programming. While authors generate the content by filling in templates and forms, the ....

....is evaluated as if it was answered in the test group. The only exception is that the result is weighted (default is 1.5) Afterwards, the current learning state is updated, i.e, NetCoach computes on the fly whether a chapter is solved, inferred, ready or not ready. See Weber, Kuhl and Weibelzahl [6] for a detailed description of the overlay model and the different states of chapters used in NetCoach. Such an inference mechanism requires information about relations between chapters which is stored in a so called knowledge base. NetCoach supports the two concept relations prerequisite and ....
