Abstract
A comprehensive electronic learning program that evaluates student's learning style preferences and assesses the student's proficiency periodically prior to and/or during an electronic learning course. The information is used to determine subsequent content and supplementary resources for the next section of the course based on the student's learning style preferences.
Claims16
A method of customizing electronic learning content to a student's learning style preference in a networked computer system comprising:
- categorizing modularized electronic learning content into learning style preferences;
- determining a learning style preference for the student based on an assessment of the student provided through the networked system;
- selecting modularized electronic learning content to be presented to the student as a consecutive series that forms at least part of course on a subject of learning based on the learning style preference for the student and the learning style preference of the modularized learning content;
- and
- enabling presentation of the modularized electronic learning content forming at least part of the course to the student on a computer display.
A system for customizing electronic learning content to a student's learning style preference comprising:
- a server having access to a database containing modularized electronic content categorized into learning style preferences stored in non-volatile memory;
- a network device having a display that is in communication with the server and in conjunction with the server having computer executable instructions stored in a memory device that enable steps including:
- determining a learning style preference for the student based on an assessment of the student;
- selecting modularized electronic learning content to be presented to the student as a consecutive series that forms at least part of a course on a subject of learning based on the learning style preference for the student and the learning style preference of the modularized learning content;
- and
- presenting the modularized electronic learning content that forms at least part of the course to the student on the display.
An apparatus having a processor that customizes electronic learning content to a student's learning style preference comprising:
- modularized electronic learning content stored in non-volatile memory that is categorized into learning style preferences;
- an electronic assessment that determines a learning style preference for the student;
- an electronic learning course that contains a consecutive series of modularized electronic learning content;
- a learning zone module that determines a learning style preference of the student by correlating the proficiency of the student for the modularized learning content with the learning style preferences of the modularized learning content and modifies subsequent modularized electronic learning content presented to the student based on the learning style preference of the student;
- and
- a means for displaying the course to the student in a computer-based learning environment.
