Abstract

Recommendation engines are being increasingly deployed into the e-learning systems. This paper proposes a software architecture for recommending learning content and learning activities, which has been validated by means of a case study. The main goal of that architecture is to achieve better recommendations of learning content and learning activities not only in systems, but also in similar e-learning environments.
