Abstract
Information systems (IS) are a fundamental part of the curricula of today’s higher education institutes (HEI) – especially in fields of business informatics, economics and computing sciences. But the current methods used to teach IS in HEI are not sufficient when compared to the capabilities of today’s learning technologies. The learning material which is provided by software vendors or teachers itself, is neither technologically-enhanced nor adapted to the individual knowledge background and learning preferences of thr ingle, individual learner. Adaptive learning environments (ALE) offer a sufficient way to teach (and learn) IS. They can track the user interaction and adapt the learning material to the learner’s performance. Thus, the lacking integration of an ALE with the IS is a major issue. In this contribution, we are presenting a user interaction-framework for web-based IS which allows the generation of individual excercises for each learner depending on her/his specific performance in the future.
