With advances in artificial intelligence (AI), adaptive hypermedia research, and the growth of big data, personalized training is getting a big boost with the rise of adaptive learning. This new avenue aims to generate, for every learner, in real time, the learning path most likely to enable him/her to achieve every learning objective. There are many spotlights on this approach that brings forward many opportunities! From tutor…
