Abstract
A learning management system (LMS) for assisting a student to prepare for an examination based on time-estimates is presented. The LMS receives inputs from the students about available time to study. The study plan includes an estimation of time needed to complete the entire syllabus of the examination. The LMS includes a record of time-estimates needed to complete the study material and maintain a study plan. In addition, the LMS maintain a difficulty-level estimates for each of the study materials as well as the proficiency level of the students. The LMS is adapted to generate a study plan for the student and adaptively update the study plan.
Claims20
A method for providing a customized study content to a student, the method comprising:
- providing an LMS for maintaining a record of a content proposal, wherein the content proposal comprises at least one of a plurality of study materials and a plurality of assessment questions;
- determining, with the LMS, a plurality of content-related-estimates, wherein the plurality of content-related-estimates comprise at least one of a difficulty level-estimate and a study time-estimate for the content proposal;
- determining, with the LMS, a plurality of user-related-estimates, wherein the plurality of user-related-estimates comprises at least one of a proficiency level-estimate and an available time-estimate for the student;
- determining a selected portion of the content proposal as the customized study content for the student;
- and
- adaptively adjusting at least one of the plurality of content-related-estimates and the plurality of user-related-estimates.
A learning management system (LMS) for providing a customized study content to a student, the LMS comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- computer memory coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the computer memory comprises instructions that are executable by the at least one processor, and wherein the instructions comprise:
- a content proposal record, wherein the content proposal record comprises at least one of a plurality of study materials and a plurality of assessment questions;
- a content admin component configured to determine a plurality of content-related-estimates for the content proposal record, wherein the plurality of content-related-estimates comprise at least one of a difficulty level-estimate and a study time-estimate;
- a user management component configured to determine a plurality of user-related-estimates for the student, wherein the plurality of user-related-estimates comprises at least one of a proficiency level-estimate and an available time-estimate for the student;
- and
- a study plan admin component configured to determine a selected portion of the content proposal record as the customized study content for the student, wherein at least one of the plurality of content-related-estimates and the plurality of user-related-estimates are configured to be adaptively adjusted through one of the content admin component and the user management component respectively.
A method for managing learning of a student, comprising:
- receiving user inputs related to the learning, the user inputs including one or more subjects that is targeted by the student, one or more study materials related to the one or more subjects, a targeted learning period and an available study time;
- generating a study plan comprising an estimation of identified study material and an estimation of time needed to complete the identified study material, wherein the identified study material comprises a subset of the one or more study materials;
- receiving further user inputs related to a progress of the learning, the further user inputs including portions of the one or more study materials completed by the student;
- identifying an outstanding content portion of the one or more study materials based on the further user inputs;
- computing an estimation of time needed to complete the outstanding content portion for feasibility check;
- computing a remaining time that corresponds to an amount of time remaining towards an end date of the targeted learning period;
- and
- adaptively performing a feasibility check based on the remaining time and the estimation of time needed to complete the outstanding content portion.
