Andre Scherl dasis@andrescherl.de ABOUT ***** DASIS is a package of Moodle[1] extensions to support students in making their individual way through hypermedia learning contents. Main features are: - concept map-based navigation between courses - direct guidance navigation with learning paths - adaptive navigation support DASIS contains three essential elements: 1. Block “Navigation Web” 2. Block “Learner Preferences” 3. Block “Learner Adaptation” Semantic Web is necessary for interdisciplinary navigation and works without adaptation but can be enhanced with adaptive navigation support. To generate the concept maps the visualization framework 'protovis' (http://mbostock.github.com/protovis/) is used. Adaptation is realized by the blocks Learner Adaptation and Learner Preferences. Both blocks were originally developed by Gert Sauerstein[2]. They were ported to Moodle 2.0+ and fitted to the needs of DASIS. We used the module "Decision Tree" (mod/decisiontree) to create and provide learning style questionnaires. This is not necessary to use the features of DASIS. It is no assessment ready to use because all the questions have to be entered first.
