What is the right cognitive level for the learner?

Learning tasks selected must be at the right cognitive level for the learner, meaning that the tasks administered to the learners must neither be too easy, as this could bore the learner due to the lack of challenge in the learning content, nor too di cult, as this could overwhelm the learner due to excessive cognitive load.

What is the relationship between personality and cognitive eciency?

Several studies have shown personality and cognitive e ciency to be associated with academic performance, with signi cant correlations between academic performance and agreeableness, conscientiousness and openness [75, 82].

Conceptualizing a Framework for Adaptive Exercise Selection with Personality as a Major Learner Characteristic

Juliet Okpo, +3 more

TL;DR: A preliminary framework of the relationship between some of these learner characteristics, with an emphasis on personality, and how they can be used by an ITS to adapt exercise selection is presented.

Abstract: Effective exercise selection based on learner characteristics is important for Intelligent Tutoring Systems to improve learning. Based on a literature review, we categorize learner characteristics used for adaptation in an ITS. We then present a preliminary framework of the relationship between some of these learner characteristics, with an emphasis on personality, and how they can be used by an ITS to adapt exercise selection.

1. What contributions have the authors mentioned in the paper "Conceptualizing a framework for adaptive exercise selection with personality as a major learner characteristic" ?

The authors then present a preliminary framework of the relationship between some of these learner characteristics, with an emphasis on personality, and how they can be used by an ITS to adapt exercise selection.

2. What is the widely studied personality concept in psychology?

Self-esteem is one of the most widely studied personality concepts in psychology [38] such that in 2001, 20,203 articles had self-esteem as a keyword which made self-esteem the most researched personality concept in comparison with concepts like neuroticism with 20,026 articles and locus of control with 13,428 articles.

3. What are the factors associated with willingness to perform?

factors associated with willingness to perform such as initiative, sporting activities, motivation and a itudes to study [73, 100, 111] have also been shown to predict academic performance.

4. What is the purpose of this paper?

Their research so far [65–67] has focused on investigating the adaptation of exercise selection to learner personality and learners’ cognitive e ciency, so that an intelligent tutoring system can tailor exercise selection to these characteristics.
