Abstract

The effectiveness of online tutoring systems largely depends on their ability to adapt to the individual needs of learners, to personalize learning activities, and to provide immediate and effective assessment and remediation. This effectiveness can only be ensured if accurate information is available regarding learners’ progress and learning profiles. In this article, we aim to propose a learner model tailored to the specificities of our academic support system, incorporating learning functions that enable personalized tutoring based on students’ needs. For this purpose, this study began with a literature review of existing learner models. We focused on five representative samples of the most widely used learner models in current learning systems: instructional management system-learner information package (IMS-LIP), public and private information for learners (PAPI), CARCHIOLO, knowledge on demand (KOD), and learner model for personalized adaptation (LMPA). We examined their characteristics and then compared them based on the following criteria: adaptability, user preferences, personalized learning, pedagogical requirements, assessment, and remediation, to evaluate their potential for integration into our system. The study revealed that these models present several limitations, which led us to propose a new learner model based on the PAPI and IMS-LIP standards. This proposal incorporates a semantic ontological structure that categorizes learner characteristics into six domains: preferences, pedagogy, administration, identification, learning, and assessment. The proposed model represents a promising solution for adapting learning processes to individual learner profiles, thereby fostering more effective and engaging educational experiences.
