Research on Web education system with personalized navigations

Abstract

The research on Web-based learning is a hot research topic in recent years. But the personalized learning support is limited in most researches, because the human cognitive processes and educational psychology-based study method are not considered. Our previous work proposed a learning support system based on a study method known as SQ3R. The system provided a set of tools and a simple navigation function following the SQ3R. But the navigation in this system is not flexible enough to follow the substance of the SQ3R. In order to support and promote learners to learn as the SQ3R scheduled, in this paper, we give three types of navigations named as heuristic tool-using navigation, traffic-light progress navigation, and suggestive review navigation.
