Personalisation of a moodle course from student's perspective

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The aim of this paper is to provide an insight into an LMS Moodle environment, its key features, brief comparison with other learning management systems, but primarily into a course which has been subjected to a questionnaire survey from students' perspective. Students using e-learning as a supporting tool for their presences studies are often dissatisfied with the content and form of their e-learning courses. However, they have no possibility to adapt the course to their needs. The reasons can be that either this LMS platform does not allow any modification of the course (look, content, difficulty..) or it is the creator of the course that sets the course the same for all students irrespective of their level of knowledge of the given subject matter, way of learning, speed of their possible progress through the course, etc. The previous lines have driven the authors of this paper to look at this problem not from the software creator's point of view, but from the software users' perspective, which is crucial for the success of its outcomes. Therefore, data collected from students has been used to identify key features that might be a subject of further personalisation, which would result in a more efficient and studentfriendly learning environment. The final part of the paper provides a real example of a course used in a university e-learning platform Moodle. The course has been chosen by students as a typical example of a Moodle course that is not of a very high standard concerning the educational content, for of the content, clear arrangement, etc. Based on the questionnaire survey containing ten questions carried among thirty students of a bachelor programme of applied informatics who passed the course called Algorithms and Data Structures 2, the final part of this paper also includes proposals how the course should be modified to be called personalised.
