Abstract :
We propose an intermediary approach to utilizing existing Web resources as educational material. The Web is attractive for educational use but it is not completely suitable. To fix the remedy, we developed an integrated proxy server, called WebAngel, which can automatically and individually personalize Web resources for students. We present the mechanism of WebAngel to support learning experiences on the Web and extends the educational possibilities of Internet usage.
