Abstract
This paper presents a Learning Management System (LMS) that provides adaptive hypermedia courses adopting SCORM standard and its specifications. Its main aim is to manage and deliver SCORM compliant courses, adapt those courses accordingly to the learner knowledge and individual characteristics and monitor user’s progress and course effectiveness providing feedback to the tutors. It is going to be used for the distribution of an adaptive Java programming course which will provide useful statistical feedback to the tutors. The focus of the paper is on the system’s architecture and in adaptation technologies that were used.
