Abstract :
Proper classification of learners is one of the key aspects in e-Learning environments. This paper uses linear regression for modeling the quantity of accumulated knowledge in relationship with variables representing the performed activity. Within the modeling process there are used the experiences performed by students for which it is known the level of accumulated knowledge. The classification of learners is performed at concept level. The outcome is computed as a percentage representing the concept covering in knowledge.
