Abstract
Due to the open ended nature of the interaction with exploratory environments (EE) for learning, it is not trivial to add mechanisms for providing adaptive support to users. Our goal is to devise and evaluate a data mining approach for providing adaptive interventions that help users to achieve better task performance during the interaction with an EE.
