Personalization and Adaptation are among the main challenges in the field of e-learning, where currently just few Learning Management Systems, mostly experimental ones, support such features. In this work we present an architecture that allows moodle to interact with the Lecomps system, an adaptive learning system developed earlier by our research group, that has been working in a stand-alone modality so far. In particular, the Lecomps responsibilities are circumscribed to the sole production of personalized learning objects sequences and to the management of the student model, leaving to moodle all the rest of the activities for course delivery. The Lecomps system supports the dynamic adaptation of learning objects sequences, basing on the student model, i.e., learner's Cognitive State and Learning Style. Basically, this work integrates two main Lecomps tasks into moodle, to be directly managed by it: Authentication and Quizzes. All in all, and so far, the advantage of the presented integration is in the real possibility to deliver and take personalized courses, residing and basically remaining into the moodle environment.

Abstract
Personalization and Adaptation are among the main challenges in the field of e-learning, where currently just few Learning Management Systems, mostly experimental ones, support such features. In this work we present an architecture that allows moodle to interact with the Lecomps system, an adaptive learning system developed earlier by our research group, that has been working in a stand-alone modality so far. In particular, the Lecomps responsibilities are circumscribed to the sole production of personalized learning objects sequences and to the management of the student model, leaving to moodle all the rest of the activities for course delivery. The Lecomps system supports the dynamic adaptation of learning objects sequences, basing on the student model, i.e., learner's Cognitive State and Learning Style. Basically, this work integrates two main Lecomps tasks into moodle, to be directly managed by it: Authentication and Quizzes. All in all, and so far, the advantage of the presented integration is in the real possibility to deliver and take personalized courses, residing and basically remaining into the moodle environment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
