Abstract
In this article authors describe how an e-learning system can obtain data about learner, so that later it could offer individual content for each learner, based on the obtained data. Authors also describe how the Learning Management System (LMS) Moodle has adapted a standard quiz module interface for testing elementary school students and how students’ individual abilities could be measured more efficiently, for example, by measuring mathematical reaction time. For obtaining necessary testing results and partial processing a new module (TAnalizer) is offered, which is adapted to the Moodle environment. With this module one can gain precise data about each student’s testing process and students’ test results.
