Chandramouli, Krishna; Stewart, Craig; Brailsford, Tim; Izquierdo, Ebroul

Abstract

The presentation of learning materials in Adaptive Education Hypermedia is influenced by several factors such as learning style, background knowledge and cultural background, to name a few. In this paper, we introduce the notion of the CAE-L Ontology for modelling stereotype cultural artefacts in adaptive education. The Ontology design is based on the user study gathered from the respondents to the CAE questionnaire which determines the cultural artefacts that influence a learner¿s behaviour within an educational environment. We present a brief overview of the implementation and discuss the stereotype presentation styles from three different countries, namely China, Ireland and UK.
