Abstract

In traditional classroom education instructors can detect the learning difficulties of their students and take all the necessary actions in order for the problem to be overcome. In asynchronous online education, however, it is system functionality that plays a vital role in locating potential problems that may be related to either or both the students and the courses. In addition, students expect the online course to provide them with personalized instruction and useful feedback. This paper presents how ProPer, an adaptive SCORM compliant Learning Management System, monitors and visualizes user progress through instruction in order to help teachers and students alike to locate possible weaknesses. Moreover, ProPer, through immediate feedback and comparative techniques aims to motivate students to continue with their study. Evaluation findings indicate that ProPer can help both instructors and students with their work through out the learning process.
