ADAPTIVE LEARNING

Adaptive learning is an computer based learning to improve student’s learning skills. Years have passed by but the way of learning have not changed at all. Employers and educationalists wanted to develop their learner’s skills so the employee can increase the ability to learn new skills and perform better. Adaptive learning should be used by corporate companies to level up their employees skiing learning skills. Adaptive learning can be really effective as the provide personalized training for the employees.

In an standard learning course a learner is provided with a topic and later with a quiz to finish the test. If the learner finishes the test he is given next topic but if he can’t finish the topic he is asked to take the quiz again. This can be a drawback for some learners as every individual has a different ability to understand a topic. In Adaptive learning tests do not work like that , after the first step is taken next step will be given to learner by analyzing his responses. In a way it completes the learner's requirement by treating everyone with different quizzes and tests.

Why adaptive learning helps is because every learner is given special attention and special treatment according to their data, which is not possible physically. In a classroom full of hundred students to give special attention to everyone at least 50 teachers are needed. It will take more resources and more time and their is a possibility that the student is not able to learn the skill even after that much resource which then will be a waste of time and money.

How adaptive learning helps:

● Adaptive learning provides a focused attention to the learner. When a task is completed it gives one to one instruction to the learner.

● Adaptive learning not only helps student but it also helps teacher in analyzing the data submitted by adaptive learning software and understanding the need of every student personally. ● Adaptive learning does not get the student frustrated and discouraged by throwing difficult tasks at them. Because of its personalized system it keeps the student at its comfort zone and brings them new tasks according to their study level. It also approaches the student more confidently and student is asked to answer the question which he is confident about and if the answer is right his confidence increases.

● Adaptive learning reduces the time taken by learner to learn new skills. In adaptive learning a student does not need to go through the material which he has already studied.



Adaptive learning has more advantages than one can imagine. In adaptive learning student or employee is not pressurized under a specific surveillance and they are not scared of giving wrong answers. With adaptive learning teacher can track a student’s development in the process and can plan a personalized lesson plan for him.
