Abstract :
Here is described the implementation of adaptivity in Moodle: a specific but very common Learning Management System. After a preliminary study about the adaptive built-in features in moodle learning management system, and the capabilities ready to perform a suitable student modeling, the research team extended Moodle capabilities with a specific data model, student model and tutoring engine to perform automatic monitoring and sequencing of learning objects for each particular learner. The future implementation of this project is related to testing activities in order to prove the efficiency method in content and course delivery.
