Requirements Framework for Personalized Real-Time Feedback in Interactive Agent-Based E-Learning Systems
Abstract
E-learning systems at the market do not adequately support learning
in a constructivist way because they do not adapt to the special needs and
personal attributes of individual learners. Eliciting complete and correct
requirements is a major challenge in personalized learning. Literature review
and Interviews conducted with twenty lecturers helped in the design of
questionnaires administered to three hundred second and third year students of
Bachelor of Science Education and IT related courses from two universities in
Uganda. Respondents were allowed to interact with two types of systems A
that gave feedback at the end of each task and B at every stage during a learning
process. The nine attributes used in the design of the questionnaire got the
lowest response being 55.8% (feedback) and the highest 74.2% (Personalizing
learning). These were used to design the basic requirements framework
