OPPIA: A multi-model platform for e-learning

Abstract

Internet, combined with the technologies of communication and information (ICT), is changing the society. Most aspects of the life of each individual have been influenced by this technological revolution. Education is not indifferent to this reality, since a number of tools and applications have been created which seek to improve the learning process. However, these educational technologies do not adapt to the way each student likes to learn. To solve this problem, this paper implements OPPIA, a multi-model educational platform, which offers three models: self-learning, tutoring learning and collaborative learning. Each student can choose the way they want to learn to obtain learning resources that reinforce their knowledge. At the end, he/she makes an assessment, which corroborates if the necessary knowledge about a certain subject was obtained.
