Adaptive Educational hypermedia systems are technologically advanced applications aiming to provide immediate and tailored instruction or feedback to learners. Their extensive use in education is completely transforming human life, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. While secure, scalable, and feature-packed learning technology applications are in high demand, the desire for interacting with customized content is ever-growing. As such, further to adaptive learner interfaces, users are searching for smart learning technology systems with highly personalized user experience. As a result, the need for redefining their conventional development is significant. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can face these challenges and implement innovative digital techniques and tools in education. Using intelligence techniques as, for example, machine learning, deep learning, neural networks, reinforcement learning, fuzzy logic, cognitive maps, genetic algorithms among others, these systems provide innovative features adjusted to human needs and interests. AI makes educational software more user-centric, helps the implementation of complex tasks and the process of huge data minimizing their execution time, and optimizes the entire system functionality.
Research in adaptive educational hypermedia systems faces numerous challenges, many of which are related to representing a dynamic physical learning environment computationally and applying it to real-world tutoring problems. In view of this, this Research Topic emphasizes the intelligent methods for Learner-Interface Interaction and Personalized Educational Software as well as interdisciplinary research for enabling, supporting, and promoting AI techniques in its development.
