Abstract

This article presents the conclusions of a research workpreparedin the University of Salamanca, Spain, including the investigation, definition, construction and test of a model to define adaptive assessments considering the user´s presentation needs and also the traditional adaptation process using the level of complexity for every item. We applied innovatively some common open standards and specifications.
