A recommender system for learning goals

The aim of a recommender system is to estimate the utility of a set of objects belonging to a given domain, starting from the information available about users and objects. Adaptive e-learning systems are able to automatically generate personalized learning experiences starting from a learner profile and a set of target learning goals. Starting form research results of these fields we defined a methodology to recommend learning goals and to generate learning experiences for learners of an adaptive e-learning system. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
