Intelligent Training Courses in Virtual Laboratories

The major challenge for eLearning courses on undergraduate mathematics is the broadness of the audience they target at and the varying demands brought up by distinct interest groups. Our proposal how to deal with these challenges is the deployment of intelligent assistants that, given some initial knowledge on the audience, explore user behaviour to build up a sophisticated model of the learner within the system. Starting with models for learner and course, we present a prototypical implementation of such a system within the virtual laboratory VideoEasel developed at the TU Berlin.
