Abstract
Math-Bridge is an e-Learning platform for online courses in mathematics.
It has been developed as a technology-based educational solution to the problems
of bridging courses taught in European universities. Math-Bridge has a number
of unique features. It provides access to the largest in the World collection of
multilingual, semantically annotated learning objects (LOs) for remedial mathematics.
It models students' knowledge and applies several adaptation techniques
to support more effective learning, including personalized course generation, intelligent
problem solving support and adaptive link annotation. It facilities a direct
access to LOs by means of semantic search. It provides rich functionality for
teachers allowing them to manage students, groups and courses, trace students'
progress with the reporting tool, create new LOs and assemble new curricula.
Math-Bridge offers a complete solution for organizing technology-enhanced learning
(TEL) of mathematics on individual-, course- and/or university level.
