Abstract
The spread of the use of virtual learning environments presents a great potential for the development of applications that meet needs in the area of education. In view of the importance of a more dynamic implementation and that it will be able to continually adapt to the needs of students, it was proposed and developed the U-SEA (System of Teaching Adapted Ubiquitous). A software built on the basis of the virtual learning environment Moodle, having as main purpose the adaptation to the context of the computational student, glimpsing techniques characteristics such as the suitability of the environment the connection speed of the user, provided with an infrastructure for Cloud Computing.
Highlights
The use of Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) in the academic world has become common, both in distance learning courses and in attendance courses
The Virtual Learning Environments are in a constant development and adaptation process, and they can quote: the AulaNet [1], Teleduc [16] and Moodle [8]
This work proposes the adaptation of the VLE Moodle and the Module Mle- Moodle to computational context, available through an infrastructure for Cloud Computing, in order to select the materials and tools suitable for each student connection speed, making the Moodle environment u-learning
Summary
The use of Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) in the academic world has become common, both in distance learning courses and in attendance courses. The problem of increasing the Internet size and complexity and the user technological diversity brings the need to treat each connection to the environment as an individual and specialized basis, identifying the profile and developing applications in virtual environments able to adapt Under this perspective, several studies have been developed to adapt the VLEs existing to the user’s context, as the case with the Mle-Moodle, AulaNetM, the AdaptWeb of Sloodle, the LIP and the Cule [4]. The differences in the students’ computational context brings a problem to the use of VLEs, because with lower speed connection appears problems to access larger files, they take a long time to be fully loaded, transferred or opened From these shortcomings observed in the literature, this article presents the adaptation of environment Moodle to the user computational context.
