The consequences of adapting the learning style and
learning strategies differences have not been
thoroughly pursued by adaptive hypermedia
researchers. Many researchers recognise the
importance of personalising hypermedia to meet
students needs and the literature review suggests
that students perform better in hypermedia based
learning environments that are configured to support
their learning needs.
Two novel adaptive systems have been developed,
based on the theory of learning styles and learning
strategies. The results suggest that students, who
use hypermedia-learning environments that supported
their preferred learning style, performed
significantly better.
The development of the system emphasises the fact
that adaptive educational systems can match some of
the students learning preferences and may have
implications on the design of web based educational
courseware.
