Abstract

E-learning websites with online assessments for learners are very abundant. However, few of these websites provide learners with materials that assist them to strengthen their weak areas. Our Dynamic Generated Material for E-Learners (DGML) system, is a dynamic e-learning system that measures the learner´s knowledge in a subject and generates from a database some learning materials from the sections where the learner scores low in quizzes. As a real application, we implemented DGML for DC course in electricity. DGML is a web based system. It was tested successfully whether hosted on Linux or on Microsoft Windows. Also the system was tested successfully using major web browsers and on two mobile platforms, the Nokia N97 and the iPhone.
